The Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Index ETF CAD (EQL-T) has garnered attention from different experts, showcasing a range of strategic insights. Analysts suggest that the equal weight approach is beneficial, particularly in a shifting market where the broader participation of companies can enhance growth opportunities. The ETF has seen positive movement, with notable recommendations highlighting a potential for broader market contributions beyond the major tech players, referred to as the 'Mag 7.' Despite some underperformance compared to market-cap-weighted indices, experts are optimistic, pointing to favorable economic indicators and a supportive Federal Reserve as catalysts for future growth. Many agree that the current technical patterns and market conditions may lead to significant breakouts and increased breadth in performance among the S&P 500 constituents.
Terry ShaunessyTerry ShaunessyHe's split his American allocations to half equal weight and half market weight. The top 5 stocks in the S&P500 is almost 20% of the index, which is unprecedented. If you use an equal weight, each stock is 1/500 of the index. EQL would be the one he would look at.

Mike PhilbrickFANGs have been driving S&P 500. But here, every stock is 1/500th, so it has greater breadth to the US blue chips and far less single stock concentration. Defensive call. Occupies half their US equity allocation. An equal weight ETF is always rotating by selling winners and buying losers, so you want enough breadth, and 500 names is plenty.
Terry ShaunessyA great tool for a Canadian investor to get buy an equal weight S&P strategy without tax complications. The MER is very low and competitive.
Mike PhilbrickContains the S&P 500 equal weight, not hedged. De-emphasizes technology, while still being in the S&P 500. Equal weighted, big cap portfolios tend to perform better than S&P 500 market caps over long periods of time. Keep this as the anchor for American exposure.
