But this isn’t just about size. Getting into the S&P 500 means playing by the rules:
HQ in the U.S.
-Listed on a top-tier U.S. exchange
-Market cap north of $20B
-High volume, high liquidity
-Five straight quarters of profit
Datadog? Checks every box.
After grinding toward profitability, they crossed the line. Sure, Q1 FY25 showed a small operating loss but the last 5 quarters on a trailing basis? All in the black.
They didn’t just get in they earned it
