On November 4, 2025, the UK Competition and Markets Authority approved S&P Global Market Intelligence's planned acquisition of Orbcomm's Automatic Identification System (AIS) data services business, removing a key regulatory hurdle for the deal. This transaction, first announced in April, strengthens S&P Global's position in satellite tracking and maritime data services, potentially expanding its market intelligence offerings. SPGI shares are trading at $496.96 (-0.01%) as of 9:56 AM EST, showing little immediate reaction to the news. The muted price movement may reflect broader market weakness, with the S&P 500 down 0.81% this morning, rather than a company-specific response.
