You're absolutely right. ETEK-JDSU closed on June 30 and JDSU was added to the S&P on July 27:

JDS Uniphase on S&P 500

NEW YORK -- Standard & Poor's said it is adding JDS Uniphase Corp. to the S&P 500 index after the July 26 close of trading. JDS, San Jose, Calif., designs and manufactures fiber-optical networks for cable television and telecommunications companies. The company was formed by the 1999 merger of Uniphase and JDS Fitel Inc. JDS is replacing Rite Aid Corp., a Camp Hill, Pa., retail-drugstore chain that is being removed for lack of representation. S&P, a unit of McGraw-Hill Cos., couldn't be reached for comment. A Rite Aid spokeswoman declined to comment on Standard & Poor's move.

The only change now will be the increased weighting when the SDLI-JDSU merger closes.
