DexCom Inc. will replace Allergan PLC in the S&P 500 index and Salesforce.com Inc. will replace the Botox maker in the S&P 100 before trading opens on May 12, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices.

The S&P 100 includes the 100 largest publicly traded companies in the U.S.

The Federal Trade Commission voted 3-2 along party lines Tuesday to approve a proposed settlement that would clear the way for AbbVie Inc. to acquire Allergan.

Meanwhile, Domino's Pizza Inc. will replace Capri Holdings Ltd. in the S&P 500 and Store Capital Corp. take Domino's spot in the S&P MidCap 400, while Capri Holdings will replace Acorda Therapeutics Inc. in the S&P SmallCap 600.

Shares of companies that join the S&P 500 often rise as portfolio managers who track the index buy shares.
