S&P Dow Jones Indices Consultation on Treatment of MegaCap Companies - ResultsJune 4, 2026 6:00 PM
PR Newswire (US) NEW YORK, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Dow Jones Indices ("S&P DJI") conducted a consultation with market participants on potential changes to the S&P U.S. Indices Methodology and Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Indices Methodology (collectively, the "Relevant Index Families") related to MegaCap companies.The Index Committee appreciates the market engagement received in connection with this consultation and thanks all respondents for their feedback.S&P DJI's Index Committee continually monitors market developments to ensure indices meet their stated objectives and considers methodology changes as needed to help ensure its indices continue to do so.Market consultations are the primary mechanism through which the Index Committee engages with market participants and other stakeholders to seek feedback on whether methodology changes are necessary or appropriate, and to assess potential methodology developments. Consultations also provide an opportunity for any member of the public to submit input. This process is designed to preserve the independence of the Index Committee, effectively mitigate potential conflicts of interest, and help ensure transparency and fairness.The Index Committee carefully reviews all consultation responses received. However, while all responses are reviewed and considered, the Index Committee is not bound by any comments or information submitted as part of the consultation.S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400, and S&P SmallCap 600 Results:Based on S&P DJI's Index Committee review of the markets and after consideration of responses received from a wide range of market participants, no changes will be made to the eligibility criteria including financial viability screens, seasoning period, or minimum IWF, for the S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400, or S&P SmallCap 600 as a result of the S&P Dow Jones Indices consultation on the treatment of MegaCap companies. Accordingly, there will be no changes to existing methodology for this index family.S&P DJI determined that exceptions to the financial viability, seasoning, and IWF requirements should not be granted solely based on market capitalization. The decision not to adopt the proposed exceptions preserves core index principles by maintaining consistent application of these key requirements. Although there may be trade-offs between strict adherence to these eligibility requirements and broad representativeness, the current methodology provides substantial market coverage and sector balance. As a result, the indices can continue to meet their stated objectives while preserving their role as representative and investable benchmarks for the U.S. equity market.The table below summarizes the consultation results.ProposedMethodologyChangesCurrentResultIPO Seasoning

In accordance with the Index Committee's governance framework, the Index Committee may, in certain circumstances, exercise discretion in the implementation of float increases after the end of the IPO lock-up period to reduce market impact, support replicability, and promote orderly implementation, taking into account company-specific facts, such as size of the index event and timelines.

S&P Global Mobility Opens FeeSync to Entire Automotive Industry at No Cost, Establishing First-of-Its-Kind Dealer Fee Transparency InfrastructureMay 27, 2026 2:00 PM
PR Newswire (US) Industry-wide initiative gives dealers centralized control over fee data and syndication to vendor partners, supporting pricing transparency across every advertising channel NEW YORK, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Global Mobility today announced that it is opening access to FeeSync powered by Market Scan, its automotive payments-as-a-service platform, to the entire automotive industry at no cost. This is one of the most significant industry-wide infrastructure investments in recent memory. The first-of-its-kind platform gives dealers a centralized, secure environment to manage and syndicate their fee structures to vendor and agency partners, independent of any technology partners. For decades, the automotive retail ecosystem has relied on a fragmented network of vendors, agencies, and marketing partners, each maintaining their own copy of dealer fee data — often updated on different cadences, through different channels, and without a single source of truth. The result has been operational complexity for dealers and inconsistency for consumers, particularly as expectations around pricing transparency continue to rise across the industry and among regulators. FeeSync changes that. Through a simple, secure interface, dealers can update their fee structures in one place and grant or revoke access to specific vendor partners as needed. Approved partners can then extract that fee data via API, ensuring that every downstream marketing channel reflects the dealership's most current information. The platform is offered free of charge to dealers and the broader allied industry. "Dealers shouldn't have to chase updates across a dozen vendors every time their fee structure changes, and consumers shouldn't encounter different numbers depending on where they shop. The infrastructure to fix this should exist at the industry level, not at the dealership level — and we're in a unique position to provide it," said Aaron Baldwin, President, Sales Solutions at S&P Global Mobility. "Opening FeeSync to the entire industry at no cost is the right thing to do for our dealer partners, for the allied industry, and ultimately for the consumer. We're proud to serve as a trusted, agnostic third party in making it happen." The launch comes at a moment of heightened industry focus on advertising practices. S&P Global Mobility is committed to supporting dealer operations in this evolving landscape. While FeeSync is an operational tool and not a compliance product, it provides foundational infrastructure that empowers dealers to establish a single source of truth for their fee data. This centralized control is a critical first step for any data governance strategy and helps ensure the fee information being sent to marketing partners is accurate and consistent with the dealer's official records. Dealers remain responsible for ensuring that their advertising and pricing practices comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including with respect to pricing transparency and vehicle availability. "This is the kind of industry-level thinking we've needed for years. As an investor who makes 10 investments per year, many into dealer-facing technology startups, we work with dozens of marketing and technology partners across the industry, and keeping fee data synchronized across all of them is a constant source of friction and operational risk. A neutral, secure platform that enables the industry to update once and syndicate everywhere is a real operational unlock," said Steve Greenfield from Automotive Ventures. "The fact that S&P Global Mobility is offering this to the entire industry at no cost speaks to the kind of partner they've been to dealers for a long time."FeeSync access will begin with automotiveMastermind® and CARFAX® customers in the coming weeks, with broader industry-wide dealership access to follow. Vendor and agency partners will be invited to integrate with the platform in a phased manner, with dealers retaining full control over which partners can access their data. S&P Global Mobility will serve as the operating steward of the platform, providing the neutrality and security infrastructure that an industry-wide utility of this kind requires. Additional details on access, onboarding timelines, and partner integration will be released in the coming weeks.About S&P Global MobilityS&P Global Mobility is a division of S&P Global (NYSE: SPGI).

S&P Global Announces Approval of Separation of Mobility GlobalMay 21, 2026 7:12 AM
PR Newswire (US) NEW YORK, May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Global Inc. (NYSE: SPGI) ("S&P Global") today announced that its Board of Directors (the "Board") has approved the previously announced separation of its Mobility division, and the creation of an independent, public company, Mobility Global Inc. ("Mobility Global"). The separation will be achieved through a pro rata distribution of 100% of the outstanding shares of Mobility Global common stock to the holders of S&P Global common stock. S&P Global shareholders will receive one share of Mobility Global common stock for every share of S&P Global common stock held at the close of business on the record date of June 15, 2026 (the "record date"). The distribution of Mobility Global shares is expected to be effective at 12:01 a.m. New York City time on July 1, 2026.The holders of S&P Global common stock entitled to receive the distribution will receive a book-entry account statement or a credit to their brokerage account reflecting their ownership of Mobility Global common stock. No action is required by S&P Global shareholders to receive Mobility Global shares in the distribution.Fractional shares of Mobility Global common stock will not be distributed. Any fractional share of Mobility Global common stock otherwise issuable to a holder of S&P Global common stock will be sold in the open market on such shareholder's behalf, and such shareholder will receive a cash payment for the fractional share based on its pro rata portion of the net cash proceeds from all sales of fractional shares.Prior to the distribution, S&P Global expects to deliver an information statement to all shareholders entitled to receive the distribution. The information statement will describe Mobility Global, including the risks of owning Mobility Global common stock and other details regarding the separation.The completion of the distribution is subject to a number of customary conditions, including that Mobility Global's registration statement on Form 10 shall have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission and that no determination will have been made by the Board that it is inadvisable to proceed with the distribution.S&P Global expects that a "when-issued" public trading market for Mobility Global common stock will commence on or about June 26, 2026 under the symbol "MBGL WI," and will continue through June 30, 2026. S&P Global also anticipates that "regular-way" trading of Mobility Global common stock will begin on July 1, 2026.Beginning on or about June 26, 2026, and through June 30, 2026, it is expected that there will be two ways to trade S&P Global common stock – either with or without the distribution of Mobility Global common stock. S&P Global shareholders who sell their shares of S&P Global common stock in the "regular-way" market (that is, the normal trading market under the symbol "SPGI") after June 26, 2026 and on or prior to June 30, 2026 will be selling their right to receive shares of Mobility Global common stock in connection with the separation. Alternatively, S&P Global shareholders who sell their shares of S&P Global common stock in the "ex-distribution" market during the same period under the symbol "SPGI WI" will not be selling their right to receive shares of Mobility Global common stock in connection with the separation. Investors are encouraged to consult with their financial advisors regarding the specific implications of buying or selling shares of S&P Global common stock on or before June 30, 2026.Following the distribution, Mobility Global will be an independent, public company. Mobility Global expects to receive authorization to list its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "MBGL".Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC are serving as financial advisors and Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP is serving as legal counsel to S&P Global.About S&P GlobalS&P Global (NYSE: SPGI) enables businesses, governments, and individuals with trusted data, expertise and technology to make decisions with conviction.

PR Newswire (US) Turns Complex Energy & Sustainability Data into Decision-Ready Insights in Minutes for Banks, Investors, Project Developers and CorporatesNEW YORK and LONDON and SINGAPORE, May 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Global Energy today announced the expansion of its agentic solutions with the release of HorizonsAgents, a new suite of AI-powered agents designed to help banks, investors, project developers and corporates turn complex energy and sustainability information into decision-ready insights, faster, with greater consistency, and with clear auditability for regulated workflows.

Le recul d'odomètre : une pratique frauduleuse répandue qui touche des milliers de CanadiensMay 11, 2026 12:19 PM
PR Newswire (Canada) CARFAX Canada et le COCVA vous donnent quelques conseils pour acheter un véhicule d'occasion en toute sécurité LONDON, ON, le 11 mai 2026 /CNW/ - En tant que l'une des principales sources de données automobiles au pays, CARFAX Canada invite les acheteurs de véhicules d'occasion à faire preuve de vigilance, alors que la falsification d'odomètre continue de représenter un risque pour la population canadienne. L'année dernière, CARFAX Canada a recensé 20 642 véhicules dont l'odomètre avait été trafiqué, d'après les Rapports d'historique de véhicules produits en 2025. Aujourd'hui, CARFAX Canada et le Conseil ontarien du commerce des véhicules automobiles (le COCVA) unissent leurs efforts pour sensibiliser la population canadienne.La falsification d'odomètre, aussi appelée « recul d'odomètre », consiste à reculer illégalement le kilométrage d'un véhicule pour en gonfler la valeur. Il s'agit d'un problème grave et d'une préoccupation croissante pour les acheteurs canadiens de véhicules d'occasion, d'autant plus qu'elle est difficile à détecter sans l'aide de données précises et d'outils de détection, généralement accessibles auprès de mécaniciens qualifiés.« Une lecture d'odomètre revue à la baisse peut pousser les acheteurs à payer un prix supérieur à la valeur réelle du véhicule, en plus de dissimuler l'usure normale due à un kilométrage élevé ainsi que des renseignements importants sur l'état véritable du véhicule », a déclaré Shawn Vording, président de CARFAX Canada. « Avec le nombre croissant de Canadiens actuellement à la recherche d'un véhicule d'occasion, il est recommandé aux acheteurs de prendre des précautions supplémentaires, comme de consulter le Rapport d'historique de véhicule de CARFAX Canada et de faire inspecter le véhicule par un mécanicien agréé, afin d'acheter en toute confiance. »« La falsification d'odomètre est un problème de plus en plus préoccupant que nous observons régulièrement dans le cadre de nos enquêtes, notamment celles visant des vendeurs illégaux non enregistrés », a déclaré Jeff Donnelly, responsable de la protection des consommateurs à le Conseil ontarien du commerce des véhicules automobiles (COCVA). « De plus en plus de consommateurs recherchent des véhicules d'occasion à bas prix et se tournent vers des vendeurs hors du marché réglementé, ce qui augmente le risque de fraude. Et avec un accès facilité aux outils permettant de falsifier les odomètres numériques, ce type de pratique gagne en popularité. La meilleure façon de se protéger est d'acheter auprès d'un concessionnaire inscrit à la COCVA.»La population canadienne peut se prémunir contre la fraude lors de l'achat d'un véhicule d'occasion en prenant soin de vérifier l'évolution des lectures d'odomètre dans le Rapport d'historique de véhicule de CARFAX Canada, mais aussi en faisant inspecter le véhicule par un mécanicien qualifié pour déceler tout signe de manipulation et s'assurer que l'usure du véhicule correspond bien au kilométrage déclaré.Comment avoir une longueur d'avance sur la fraude automobileVoici quelques conseils de CARFAX Canada et de la COCVA pour aider les consommateurs à éviter les escroqueries lors de l'achat d'un véhicule d'occasion :Privilégiez l'achat auprès d'un concessionnaire agréé par la COCVA ou par l'organisme de protection des consommateurs de votre province, puisqu'ils sont tenus de respecter des obligations légales et éthiques. Utilisez l'outil de recherche de concessionnaires de la COCVA pour confirmer que le vendeur est inscrit.Méfiez-vous des personnes non autorisées et non inscrites (vendeurs itinérants) qui vendent des voitures illégalement; elles pourraient faire de fausses déclarations sur l'état réel du véhicule, trafiquer l'odomètre ou dissimuler des problèmes majeurs.Soyez prudent si la transaction vous met mal à l'aise : les vendeurs illégaux et les escrocs utilisent souvent des tactiques de pression pour vous pousser à prendre une décision rapide.Si vous achetez un véhicule à un particulier, prenez des précautions supplémentaires pour vérifier l'identité du propriétaire. Assurez-vous que l'identité du vendeur correspond aux documents d'immatriculation du véhicule.Si l'offre semble trop belle pour être vraie, faites vos recherches et fiez-vous à votre intuition.Si possible, faites-vous accompagner d'un ami ou d'un membre de votre famille; cette personne remarquera peut-être quelque chose que vous n'avez pas vu.Inspectez le véhicule en personne, demandez toujours à un mécanicien agréé d'inspecter le véhicule et faites un essai routier en bonne et due forme.Ne versez pas d'acompte ou ne payez pas la totalité du véhicule en utilisant des liens ou des applications suspects.Vérifiez tous les documents et obtenez un Rapport d'historique de véhicule de CARFAX Canada jumelé à une Détection de NIV frauduleux. Ces rapports permettent de confirmer que l'historique du véhicule correspond bien aux informations fournies par le vendeur.En cas de doute, il vaut mieux renoncer à acheter le véhicule.Attention aux autres escroqueries courantes liées aux véhicules d'occasion au CanadaClonage de NIV (ou renivage)Le clonage de NIV, ou renivage, est un type de fraude automobile qui consiste à copier ou à « cloner » illégalement le numéro d'identification d'un véhicule avant de l'attribuer à un autre pour en dissimuler l'identité. Dans de nombreux cas, un NIV cloné est utilisé pour revendre un véhicule volé. L'acheteur dupé pourrait alors voir son bien saisi par les autorités, avec les lourdes conséquences financières et autres désagréments que cela implique.Historique non divulguéEn plus du recul d'odomètre et du clonage de NIV, les acheteurs devraient également être au fait de plusieurs autres types d'antécédents non divulgués concernant un véhicule afin d'éviter de graves problèmes :Accidents ou dommages dissimulésLe fait qu'un véhicule d'occasion ait été accidenté ou endommagé ne signifie pas pour autant qu'il n'est pas un bon choix. L'important est d'avoir connaissance de cet historique et de tout dommage que le véhicule pourrait avoir subi, afin de pouvoir confirmer que les réparations adéquates ont été effectuées. Dans le cas contraire, l'acheteur s'expose à des risques importants pour sa sécurité, mais aussi à des réparations coûteuses, à des problèmes d'assurance, à des défaillances mécaniques et à une valeur de revente moindre.Accident grave et reconstruction de véhicule non déclarés ou falsification du statut du véhicule : Les criminels peuvent délocaliser des véhicules gravement accidentés au Canada en vue de dissimuler leur historique et de les revendre avec de faux documents ou un statut sans incident : c'est ce qu'on appelle la « falsification d'un statut de véhicule ». Acheter sans le savoir un véhicule gravement accidenté ou reconstruit peut se transformer en un interminable casse-tête financier et judiciaire, sans parler des problèmes d'assurance. Droits de rétention non déclarésAu cours de la dernière année, CARFAX Canada a constaté que 40 % des véhicules soumis à la vérification des droits de rétention étaient grevés de dettes. Bien que les droits de rétention soient chose courante, un acheteur pourrait devenir responsable de la dette liée à un véhicule assujetti à un droit de rétention non déclaré. Si les droits de rétention n'ont pas été payés avant le transfert de propriété, le prêteur pourrait reprendre possession du véhicule, laissant à l'acheteur le soin de payer la somme due sur celui-ciKenny, un client de CARFAX Canada originaire de l'Alberta, raconte comment un Rapport d'historique de véhicule lui a permis d'éviter une erreur coûteuse : « Nous étions sur le point d'acheter un véhicule d'occasion et nous en avions même négocié le prix. Nous avons décidé d'effectuer une dernière vérification et avons découvert que le véhicule avait fait l'objet d'un recul d'odomètre. Sans ce rapport, nous ne l'aurions jamais su. Ça nous a épargné beaucoup de problèmes… et d'argent! »CARFAX Canada analyse des milliards de dossiers provenant de partout en Amérique du Nord et fournit des historiques de véhicule complets, des perspectives détaillées sur le marché et des données d'évaluation afin d'aider des millions de personnes à prendre des décisions éclairées en matière d'automobile.À propos de CARFAX Canada

Odometer Rollbacks: A Common Scam Impacting Thousands of CanadiansMay 11, 2026 12:04 PM
PR Newswire (Canada) CARFAX Canada and OMVIC share tips on how to protect yourself when buying a used carLONDON, ON, May 11, 2026 /CNW/ - As one of Canada's leading sources of automotive data, CARFAX Canada is warning used car buyers to be vigilant as odometer tampering continues to put Canadian consumers at risk. Last year, CARFAX Canada identified 20,642 vehicles with rolled back odometers, flagged through Vehicle History Reports that were ordered in 2025. Today, CARFAX Canada and the Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council (OMVIC) are joining forces to warn Canadians.Odometer tampering, also known as an odometer rollback, occurs when a vehicle's mileage reading is illegally reduced to inflate its value. It is a serious and ongoing concern for buyers in Canada's used car market and cannot be spotted without the help of comprehensive data and detection tools available through most licensed mechanics."A rolled back odometer can leave buyers paying more than a vehicle is truly worth, mask the normal wear and tear that occurs with higher mileage vehicles, and ultimately hide important information about a vehicle's true condition," said Shawn Vording, President of CARFAX Canada. "With many Canadians in the market for used vehicles right now, buyers can take extra precautions like reviewing a CARFAX Canada Vehicle History Report and having the vehicle inspected by a licensed mechanic to buy with more confidence.""Odometer tampering is a growing concern, and one we're encountering more frequently in our investigations, particularly those involving illegal, unregistered sellers," said Jeff Donnelly, Chief Consumer Protection Officer at the Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council (OMVIC). "As more consumers search for lower-priced used vehicles and look beyond the regulated market, the risk of fraud increases. With easier access to tools that can alter digital odometers, this type of deception is becoming more common. The best way to protect yourself is to buy from an OMVIC registered dealer."Canadians can help protect themselves when buying a used car by reviewing the pattern of odometer readings in a CARFAX Canada Vehicle History Report (VHR), along with an inspection by a licensed mechanic to help identify signs of tampering and confirm that the vehicle's wear and tear aligns with the reported mileage.How to Stay Ahead of ScamsCARFAX Canada and OMVIC recommend the following tips to help avoid used car scams:Consider buying from a dealer registered with OMVIC or a consumer protection agency in your province as they must follow legal and ethical practices. Use OMVIC's dealer search tool to confirm the seller is registered.Beware of illegal, unregistered individuals (curbsiders) who sell cars illegally and might misrepresent the real condition of the car, turn back the odometer or hide major issues.Be cautious if the transaction makes you feel uneasy: Illegal sellers and scammers often use high-pressure tactics to rush decisions.If buying privately, take extra precautions to verify the owner of the vehicle: Ensure that the seller's identity matches the vehicle's registration documents.If the deal seems too good to be true, do your research and trust your gut.If possible, bring a friend or family member; they may notice something you don't.Inspect the vehicle in person, always get a licensed mechanic to inspect the vehicle, and take it for a proper test drive.Do not leave a deposit or pay in full for the vehicle using suspicious links or apps.Check all paperwork and obtain a CARFAX Canada Vehicle History Report and VIN Fraud Check. This helps verify that the vehicle's history matches with what the seller advertises.When in doubt, walk away.Beware of Other Common Used Car Scams in CanadaVIN Cloning or Re-VinningVIN cloning or re-vinning is a form of auto fraud where a vehicle's VIN is illegally copied or "cloned" onto another vehicle to cover its identity. In many cases, cloned VINs are used to conceal and re-sell a stolen vehicle, and if you buy one, it could be seized by authorities, leaving consumers to bear the full financial burden and other potential adverse consequences.Undisclosed HistoryBeyond odometer fraud and VIN cloning, buyers should also be aware of several other types of undisclosed vehicle history that can lead to serious problems:Hidden Accidents or DamageA vehicle's accident or damage history does not necessarily disqualify it from purchase. The critical factor is knowing about any previous damage, so buyers can confirm it has been repaired properly. Undisclosed damage can pose significant safety risks and lead to costly repairs, reduced resale value, insurance issues, and mechanical failures.Undisclosed Salvage and Rebuilt Branding or Title Washing: Criminals may move salvaged vehicles across the country to hide their history and re-sell them with fake documentation or a clean title – this is known as title washing. Unknowingly buying a rebuilt or salvage vehicle may quickly turn into long-term financial, legal and insurance headaches. Undisclosed LiensIn the past year, CARFAX Canada found that 40% of lien checks conducted through its platform had revealed outstanding debt attached to the vehicle. While liens are common, buyers may become responsible for the debt if purchasing a vehicle with a lien without knowing. If a lien is not paid off before transferring ownership, the lender can repossess the vehicle, leaving the buyer on the hook for paying off the money owing on the vehicle.A CARFAX Canada customer shared how a Vehicle History Report helped them avoid a costly mistake. Kenny from Alberta said: "We almost purchased a used vehicle and had even negotiated a price. We decided to give it one more check and discovered the vehicle had an odometer rollback issue. Without the report we would never have known, and it saved us a lot of headaches and money!"CARFAX Canada searches billions of data records across North America and provides comprehensive vehicle history, market insights and vehicle valuation data to help millions of people make decisions about cars.About CARFAX Canada

CARFAX: Nearly 7 Million Vehicles Have Unfixed Backup Camera RecallsMay 11, 2026 9:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) New CARFAX data underscores growing risk as camera-related recall alerts spikeCENTREVILLE, Va., May 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Backup camera recalls are rising sharply, up more than a million and a half since the start of the year. New CARFAX data shows nearly 7 million vehicles on U.S. roads currently have an unfixed recall tied to their backup camera system, which can reduce driver visibility and increase the risk of a crash. These recalls stem from a range of issues, including blank or distorted screens, frozen images, and intermittent camera failures. Last week, Tesla recalled more than 210,000 vehicles due to lagging rearview camera images, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Back up cameras increase vehicle safety by significantly reducing the risk of fatalities and serious injuries caused by back over accidents, according to NHTSA."Backup cameras are a critical safety feature and when they don't work properly, can significantly limit what drivers see behind them," said Faisal Hasan, Vice President of Data Acquisition. "With millions of vehicles still carrying unfixed recalls, it's important for drivers to check for open recalls and get them repaired as soon as possible. These fixes are free and can help prevent potential accidents."The 10 states with the highest number of unfixed camera recalls are:Texas: 696,000California: 545,000Florida: 492,000Michigan: 332,000Ohio: 282,000Illinois: 273,000New York: 269,000Pennsylvania: 263,000Georgia: 220,000North Carolina: 216,000Several factors are likely contributing to the rise in camera-related recalls. Since 2018, federal regulations have required backup cameras on all new vehicles sold in the U.S. that are 10,000 pounds or less, which includes most everyday vehicles like sedans and SUVs. As a result, even minor malfunctions can become federal safety compliance issues. At the same time, growing vehicle complexity means these systems often rely on interconnected hardware and software, creating more opportunities for widespread failures.Research continues to show the safety benefits of backup cameras. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, rearview cameras are associated with:A roughly one-third reduction in backover incidentsNearly a 50% decrease in severe injuriesA 78% reduction in reported fatalitiesRecalls affect a wide range of automakers and model years. Drivers can check for open recalls on their vehicle for free at carfax.com/recall. All recall repairs are completed at no cost to consumers.

S&P Global Energy Expands Cement, Clinker and SCM Price Assessment Coverage to Meet Demand from Global Construction and Decarbonisation MarketsMay 7, 2026 4:30 AM
PR Newswire (US) Sixteen new Platts price assessments strengthen transparency across Europe, Asia and the AmericasNEW YORK and LONDON and SINGAPORE, May 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Global Energy, the leading independent provider of information, data, analysis, benchmark prices and workflow solutions for the commodities, energy expansion and energy transition markets, today announced the launch of 16 new Platts cement, clinker, granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) and related freight price assessments, effective May 7. The expanded coverage is designed to bring greater price transparency across key regional markets in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Asia, and the Americas, supporting informed decision–making across the cement and construction value chain. Global cement and construction supply chains are entering a period of profound change, shaped by rising infrastructure demand, evolving trade flows, and increasing pressure to decarbonise one of the world's most emissions–intensive industries. Urbanisation, energy transition investments, and large–scale infrastructure projects are driving sustained demand for cement and concrete across transportation, energy, housing, and industrial development. At the same time, producers, traders, and consumers are navigating tighter environmental requirements, emerging carbon–pricing frameworks, and greater scrutiny over the carbon content of traded materials."As infrastructure investment expands and decarbonisation policy and commitments reshape trade flows, access to robust, market–reflective price information is becoming increasingly critical for cement market participants," said Vera Blei, Head of S&P Global Energy Platts. "These new assessments further extend the transparency Platts brings to physical spot markets, supporting customers as they navigate changing cost structures and supply chains, as well as sustainability commitments."Cement, with an estimated market value of around $400 billion, is the principal ingredient in concrete — the world's second–most consumed product after water — and a cornerstone of global economic development. Clinker, produced through energy–intensive kiln processes, is a critical intermediate in cement manufacturing, particularly for Portland cement, the most widely used cement type worldwide. As trade in cement and clinker continues to grow across borders, robust market–based price references are becoming increasingly important.Of the 16 new assessments, eight focus on Europe, the Middle East and Africa, five on Asia, and three on the Americas, reflecting both established and emerging trade corridors. The launch follows extensive engagement with market participants and responds to growing demand for consistent, transparent price signals across spot physical cement and cementitious materials markets.The expansion comes at a time when cement and related supply chains are being reshaped by two reinforcing global trends:Growing infrastructure and construction demand
Growth across major economies, public and private investment in infrastructure — spanning transport networks, energy systems, housing, and commercial development — is underpinning steady demand for cement and concrete. As projects scale in size and complexity, market participants are seeking clearer, regionally relevant price references to support procurement decisions, budgeting, contract negotiations, and risk management across different supply routes.Decarbonisation policy and carbon–accounting requirements
Cement producers are increasingly required to lower the carbon intensity of their production, driven by corporate sustainability commitments and regulations such as the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). CBAM is intended to apply a carbon cost to certain imported goods, reinforcing the need for transparency around emissions exposure in international trade. Clinker production accounts for a substantial share of cement–related emissions, given its reliance on high–temperature kilns often fuelled by coal or petroleum coke. As a result, there is growing interest in blended cements and supplementary cementitious materials such as GBFS, which can help reduce clinker content and emissions intensity. This shift is increasing focus not only on cement and clinker prices, but also on the availability, pricing and freight economics of clinker substitutes and blending materials.Major producers of cement and cementitious materials - including China, India, Vietnam, the United States, Turkey, Iran, Brazil, Indonesia, Russia, and South Korea — are also among the world's largest consumers, reinforcing the importance of transparent pricing across domestic and international markets.For more information, scan the QR code to follow us on WhatsApp for daily market updates on Cement with Platts, part of S&P Global Energy.Media Contacts ??

PR Newswire (US) New golden badge helps shoppers find vehicles sold new and serviced at the same dealership CENTREVILLE, Va., May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CARFAX is making it easier for car shoppers to find vehicles that a single dealership has known since Day 1. The new CARFAX Homegrown™ badge that appears on eligible CARFAX Reports, signals that a specific vehicle was sold new and received consistent care from the same dealership. These CARFAX Homegrown™ vehicles can offer greater long-term reliability and value, helping shoppers feel more confident in their buying, shopping, selling, and trade-in process."The CARFAX Homegrown™ badge on a CARFAX Report means this is a used car the dealer knows personally," said Paul Nadjarian, Chief Product Officer at CARFAX. "These vehicles have been serviced time and time again at the same dealership, which often reflects a higher level of care and familiarity. That can make a real difference for the next owner." According to CARFAX data, CARFAX Homegrown™ vehicles, which are typically maintained by the same technicians, command higher value and often sell more quickly. CARFAX Lifetime Dealers, who are committed to transparency and long-term care for their customers, have played a key role in making these insights possible.

More than 53 million users in the U.S. receive free timely maintenance reminders from the CARFAX Car Care app.CARFAX Lifetime Dealer Blaine Birner, Sales Manager at Gillman Subaru North, said introducing CARFAX into conversations with consumers immediately changes the energy on the floor.

He ended up choosing a vehicle he felt genuinely good about," said Birner. "A few months later, [the customer] came back… just for a routine service. He mentioned how helpful it had been to keep track of everything through CARFAX for Life."With a database powered by more than 177,000 sources and more than 38 billion records, CARFAX delivers trusted insights to millions of people, supporting smarter decisions at every stage of the vehicle journey.About CARFAXCARFAX, part of S&P Global Mobility, helps millions of people every day confidently shop, buy, service, and sell cars with innovative solutions powered by CARFAX® vehicle history information.

S&P Cotality Case-Shiller Index Reports Annual Gain in February 2026April 28, 2026 10:57 AM
PR Newswire (US)
The S&P Cotality Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index posted a 0.7% annual gain for February 2026, down from a 0.8% rise in the previous month.More than half of major U.S. metropolitan markets posted year-over-year price declines in February, with Denver (-2.2%) displacing Tampa as the weakest market and Los Angeles and Washington joining the list of decliners.For the ninth consecutive month, inflation outpaced national home price appreciation. CPI ran 1.7 percentage points above the 0.7% annual gain, extending the streak of negative real home price returns.NEW YORK, April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Dow Jones Indices (S&P DJI) today released the February 2026 results for the S&P Cotality Case-Shiller Indices.More than 27 years of history are available for the data series and can be accessed in full by going to www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/index-family/indicators/sp-Cotality-case-shiller.Cotality continues to have transaction delays from the recording office in Wayne County, the most populous county in the Detroit metro area. These delays impacted the February transaction data and, therefore, no valid February 2026 update of the Detroit S&P Cotality Case-Shiller Index will be provided for the April 28, 2026, release date. There was, however, enough data to calculate a valid January 2026 update, which is provided in Tables 2 and 3.S&P DJI will continue to provide updates to the Detroit index values for the month(s) with missing sale transactions data.ANALYSIS"More than half of major U.S. metropolitan markets posted year-over-year price declines in February, signaling that the housing slowdown has broadened well beyond its Sun Belt origins," said Nicholas Godec, CFA, CAIA, CIPM, Head of Fixed Income Tradables & Commodities at S&P Dow Jones Indices. "The S&P Cotality Case-Shiller National Home Price Index rose just 0.7% year over year in February, down from 0.8% in January. With consumer inflation at 2.4%, U.S. home values have lost ground in real terms for nine consecutive months."The geographic mix has shifted meaningfully," Godec continued. "Mountain West (Denver -2.2%) and Pacific Northwest (Seattle -2.0%) markets now sit alongside Sun Belt decliners Tampa (-2.1%), Phoenix (-1.8%), and Dallas (-1.7%). Los Angeles (-0.8%) and Washington (-0.1%) joined the list of decliners, while Tampa's decline narrowed for a fourth consecutive month and Denver displaced it as the weakest market in the index."Leadership remains concentrated in Midwest and Northeast markets. Chicago led all metros at 5.0% annual growth, followed by New York (4.7%) and Cleveland (4.2%) — the same trio that has anchored this cycle's leadership. The 7.2 percentage point spread between Chicago and Denver illustrates how localized the housing story has become."Monthly data offered a modest seasonal lift without underlying momentum," Godec concluded. "The National Index rose 0.3% before seasonal adjustment, but after adjustment the National and 10-City Composites were essentially flat at 0.1% and the 20-City Composite slipped 0.1%. The H1/H2 split reinforces the picture: a 1.5% gain over the first six months of the trailing 12 gave way to a 0.8% decline over the most recent six. Mortgage rates near 6% continue to weigh on affordability and transaction activity, holding nominal price growth below inflation."YEAR-OVER-YEARThe S&P Cotality Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index, covering all nine U.S. census divisions, reported a 0.7% annual gain for February. The 10-City Composite saw an annual increase of 1.5%, down from a 1.7% increase in the previous month. The 20-City Composite posted a year-over-year increase of 0.9%, down from a 1.2% rise in the previous month.Chicago reported the highest annual gain among the 20 cities with a 5.0% increase in February, followed by New York and Cleveland with annual increases of 4.7% and 4.2%, respectively. Denver posted the lowest return in February, falling 2.2%.MONTH-OVER-MONTHThe pre-seasonally adjusted U.S. National, 10-City Composite, and 20-City Composite Indices recorded annual gains of 0.3%, 0.6%, and 0.4%, respectively.After seasonal adjustment, the U.S. National and 10-City Composite Indices reported a monthly increase of 0.1%. In contrast, the 20-City Composite Index had a decrease of 0.05%.SUPPORTING DATAThe S&P Cotality Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index, which covers all nine U.S. census divisions, recorded a 0.7% annual increase in February 2026. The 10-City and 20-City Composites reported year-over-year increases of 1.5% and 0.9%, respectively.Table 1 below shows the housing boom/bust peaks and troughs for the three composites along with the current levels and percentage changes from the peaks and troughs.

NEW YORK and LONDON and SINGAPORE, April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P Global Energy and the United Nations Sustainable Stock Exchanges (UN SSE) today announced a knowledge partnership agreement aimed at advancing energy transition in capital markets by better equipping exchanges and the marketplace with the data, insights, and capacity building solutions needed to confidently engage with the growing range of energy transition products being traded on global markets.
The UN SSE is the leading global forum for exchanges on sustainability topics, providing guidance, benchmarking, policy dialogue, and education. S&P Global Energy is the leading independent provider of information, data, analysis, benchmark prices and workflow solutions for the metals, commodities, energy expansion and energy transition markets.Responding to the needs of the capital markets, the new collaboration brings together the UN SSE's global network of over 138 exchanges and S&P Global Energy's expertise in physical commodities and low carbon solutions, with the combined potential to help improve exchange readiness to evaluate, design and scale sustainability- and clean-energy-expansion-linked commodity markets underpinned by trusted pricing, analytics, and infrastructure. Key focus areas of the collaboration agreement include electrification, carbon-accounted commodities, carbon pricing and infrastructure, clean fuels (i.e. renewables, biofuels, sustainable aviation fuel, hydrogen) and battery metals.Leanne Todd, Head of Horizons, S&P Global Energy, said: "Capital markets play an increasingly central role in financing the net-zero transition and exchanges and investors need reliable data and practical tools for products linked to renewables, low-carbon fuels, battery metals, and carbon instruments. We welcome this opportunity to assist the UN SSE's global network and help accelerate the adoption of best practices, through global knowledge-sharing that supports carbon markets development and credible net-zero outcomes."Anthony Miller, Chief Coordinator, UN SSE, said: "We are living through a period of profound transformation in global energy markets, and the role of capacity building and peer learning in navigating and accelerating this transition is critically important. In response to demand from SSE Partner Exchanges, this collaboration with S&P Global Energy looks to create better access to data, deeper knowledge of emerging commodity markets, and more opportunities for peer learning so that market participants can play their part in supporting the shift to a net-zero emissions economy. S&P Global Energy's deep expertise in commodity markets and energy transition data will help us develop new knowledge products that can accelerate the global transition to low- and zero-emissions energy." Vera Blei, Head of Platts, S&P Global Energy, said: "Investors and markets depend on independent, transparent price information and Platts' full range of low-carbon and associated physical spot market price assessments provide that. We're delighted S&P Global Energy is a core data, benchmark and market infrastructure collaborator to this initiative."The new collaboration envisions a full range of research publications, trainings and convenings around net-zero transition capacity building, peer learning, and knowledge products and is expected to include key elements such as the below: Market Insights WebinarsIn-Depth Energy Transition TrainingUN-Events-Related Experts Group on Commodity Markets and Energy TransitionCarbon Markets Roundtables to Advance Dialogue and Knowledge-SharingData-Driven Market Monitors on Carbon & Emissions and Clean Energy & Scenarios Sustainable Trading Systems Resource/WhitepaperGet involved by registering to attend the upcoming May 14, 2026, Market Insights Webinar Carbon Markets and Renewable Energy Credits for Net-Zero Roadmaps and applying to join the Commodity Markets and Energy Transition Expert Group.
