Instacart’s stock saw a notable increase of around 4.5% after the announcement that the company, also known as Maplebear (CART), will join the S&P MidCap 400 index. This change, effective from next Tuesday’s session, marks a significant milestone for the food delivery giant, which will replace Enovis (ENOV) on the index. Over the past 12 months, Instacart’s stock has surged by nearly 100%, reflecting strong growth in its business.
In addition to this index promotion, Instacart revealed a partnership with Ulta Beauty (ULTA) to deliver its beauty products nationwide, a move that further expands its service offerings. While Instacart experienced a boost, Ulta’s shares were down more than 2%, partly due to the announcement of its CEO’s impending retirement.
Meanwhile, Enovis will move to the SmallCap 600 index, taking the spot vacated by Arch Resources (ARCH), which is set to be acquired by Consol Energy (CEIX) and rebranded as Core Natural Resources.
The addition of Instacart to the S&P MidCap 400 highlights the company’s growing market presence and its ongoing evolution in the competitive food delivery industry.
