I believe I heard something to the effect on CNBC that S&P Index funds couldn't or didn't have to begin adding ASND until July 1.

The goal of these funds is to exactly mimic the performance of the S&P 500. On Thursday, the make-up of the index changes. There would be no "rule" that says any fund has until 7/1 "to begin adding", other than what might be written in the fund prospectus/charter. These funds will all try to "mimic" as quickly as possible, I would think.
