"changes to the S&P SmallCap 600 effective prior to the opening of trading"

A stock market index made up of 600 small-cap U.S. companies chosen to represent the performance of smaller publicly traded firms. It matters to investors because it acts like a temperature gauge for the small-company segment of the market, serving as a benchmark for fund managers, a basis for index funds and ETFs, and a way to compare returns and risk when building a diversified portfolio.

"S&P 500 constituent Biogen Inc. (NASD: BIIB) is acquiring Apellis"

The S&P 500 is a broad stock market index that tracks the performance of 500 large U.S. companies, weighted so bigger firms have a larger impact. Investors use it like a thermometer or benchmark to judge how the overall U.S. stock market or a portfolio is doing; movements in the index influence investor sentiment, fund performance, and many passive investment products that aim to match its returns.
