Netflix (NFLX), F5 Networks (FFIV) added in S&P 500

Netflix (NFLX), a constituent of the S&P 400 Index, will be replacing Office Depot (OD) in the S&P 500, Standard and Poor’s said this afternoon.

Netflix joins F5 Networks (FFIV) and Newfield Explorations (NFX) in moving to the 500, while OD, The New York Times (NYT), and Eastman Kodak (EK) move into the mid-cap 400.
