<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/vici-properties-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:28786:1" rel="noopener"></a>VICI Properties (VICI) will replace Cerner (CERN) in S&amp;P500 at close of 7 June. Keurig DrPepper and ON Semiconductor will replace UnderArmour and IPG Photonics at close 17 June.</li>
<li>This set of rebalances is particularly interesting in terms of non-offsetting flows, unlike many rebals which are just a game of musical shares between the three top indices.</li>
