Standard and Poor’s announced that Red Hat would join the S&P 500 as of the close of trading on Friday. Red Hat replaces lender CIT Group, which had a market capitalization below $275 million, ranking it 500th in the index.

The market seemed to like the S&P news. In after hours trading Friday, Red Hat was up 8.45 percent to $22.34.

I believe truth and principle do matter. If you have to sacrifice them to get the results you want, then the results aren't worth it.
