(Reuters) -Shares of Robinhood (HOOD) Markets dipped 4% in premarket trading on Monday, after S&P Dow Jones Indices made no changes to the S&P 500 membership following recent speculation that the online brokerage would be added to the index. S&P Dow Jones Indices announced late on Friday that it will not be making any changes to the components of the benchmark S&P 500 as part of quarterly rebalancing. Robinhood stock rallied in recent weeks, touching its highest level since 2021 market debut on Friday, as investors priced in a possible inclusion in the index. NasdaqGS - Delayed Quote•USD (HOOD) Follow View Quote Details 74.88 - +(3.27%) At close: June 6 at 4:00:01 PM EDT Advanced Chart Bank of America analysts earlier this month touted the company as the "prime candidate" to join the S&P 500. Robinhood's shares were down 5% at $71.2 before the bell, while marketing platform AppLovin, which also rallied last week on bets of inclusion, dropped 5% to $397.

To be included on the index, a company has to be U.S. domiciled, listed on a prominent U.S. exchange and have a market capitalization of $20.5 billion or higher. Robinhood had a market valuation of $66.1 billion as of Friday's close, with shares more than doubling in value this year and trading well above its IPO price of $38 apiece. Crypto-exchange operator Coinbase Global was the latest addition to the S&P 500 last month, making it the first digital asset player to be included in the index.
