Block's stock pops on addition to S&P 500
Block shares jumped 7% on Monday after S&P Global said the company will join the S&P 500, replacing Hess, which was acquired by Chevron's for $54 billion. The stock rose following the announcement late Friday as investors sought to get in ahead of index fund managers, who will need to buy shares to mimic the changes. Square's $48 billion market cap at Monday's close places it well above the median S&P 500 constituent, though shares are still down 8% this year. Passive funds are expected to purchase roughly 101 million shares of Block due its inclusion, equivalent to about 11 days of average trading volume, according to a note from Stephens. Block is working to reestablish investor confidence after uneven performance from its Cash App business. Gimme Credit's Stu Novick noted that while gross profit growth missed estimates last quarter, the company still delivered strong adjusted earnings and improving cash flow. While Block is joining the benchmark index, a major player in the fintech industry remains on the sidelines. Robinhood has delivered one of the strongest recent runs in the U.S. stock market, soaring 345% in the past year. Yet despite nearing a nearly $100 billion, the company has been repeatedly passed over for S&P 500 inclusion. Robinhood shares fell almost 5% on Monday.

Iran agrees to talks with UK, France & Germany
Synopsis The three European countries, or E3, are parties to the original nuclear agreement, formally called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which US President Donald Trump abandoned in 2018. On Friday, Axios reported that Iran and the E3 were expected to meet in Europe next week to discuss a potential agreement. Iran has reached an agreement in principle to hold talks with the UK, France and Germany over its nuclear program, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported. ADVERTISEMENT Discussions are ongoing to finalize the location, with the talks possibly taking place "next week," the report said Sunday, citing an unidentified source. The three European countries, or E3, are parties to the original nuclear agreement, formally called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which US President Donald Trump abandoned in 2018. On Friday, Axios reported that Iran and the E3 were expected to meet in Europe next week to discuss a potential agreement. Diplomatic efforts to revive Iran's nuclear deal have stalled since June 13, when Israel launched an attack on the country days before a planned sixth round of Oman-mediated talks between Tehran and Washington. That derailed negotiations that had begun in April. Iran was also engaged in limited parallel talks with the E3 and the European and the US have remained deadlocked over restarting their own nuclear negotiations. Iranian officials have demanded assurances against further attacks, including by the US, which joined Israel in bombing Iran's nuclear sites last month.
