Verisk Analytics Inc., the provider of data to insurers and banks, climbed the most since July after the company was named to join the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. Verisk rose $3.49, or 4.7 percent, to $77.40 at 10:27 a.m. in New York trading. S&P said Wednesday that the firm would replace Joy Global Inc., the world’s biggest manufacturer of underground mining equipment, in the index at the close of trading on Oct. 7.
