December 6th, 2007

The world’s largest game retailer, Gamestop, has been promoted to the S&P 500 index at the stock exchange in New York. This comes after a record quarter of over $1.6 billion in sales and $52 million in net income. Standard & Poors 500 financial index tracks companies with a minimum market-capitalization of $5 billion. Gamestop will replace Dow Jones, which was bough recently by News Corp.
