Liz Young, Head of investment strategy at SoFi Rydex S&P Equal Weight ETF RSP-N WEAK BUY Jun 30, 2023

Each portion of this is worth 1/500. The main reason you want to move to an equally weighted index at this point in time is that as this market progresses, the breadth of the market and the number of stocks participating widens and widens, which is why these equally weighted indexes and ETFs tend to outperform their underlying benchmarks.

(A Top Pick Feb 20/13. Up 24.91%.) This gives you access to the S&P 500, equal weight. The whole idea here is that you want to own the markets with investment vehicles that outperform the market.

(A Top Pick July 24/13. Up 21.17%) because this is such a broad ETF, rather than being market capped, each constituent is 1/500 of this index, so there is a bias to smaller, large-cap stocks, which tend to be the more growth part.

(Top Pick Jan 14/14, Up 12.59%) Equally weighted indexes tend to outperform in the mid to late part of the cycle.

It de-emphasizes the tech dominance of the S&P 500. This uses an equal weight, giving more exposure to industrials, financials and healthcare where these sectors will do well. Best to own in a registered account.

(A Top Pick May 15/19, Up 1%) Equally weighted as opposed to market weighted. They bought this one to get away from the tech stocks. Since recommended here Invesco has listed an equal weight ETF for the S&P 500 in Canadian dollars on the TSX (EQL-T).

RSP is not overly exposed to just tech and communications. IWM at market weight has performed much better than RSP. But we're hopefully going to see some rotation. RSP is a great idea, and there are similar tickers that trade on the Canadian side.

IWM has the smallest 2000 companies out of the Russell 3000, underperforming. Small cap should perform better with steady or falling interest rates, as they tend to be more levered.

His portfolio style favours the mid- and large-cap names, but small caps can do well in a lower-rate environment.

This has definitely been on an uptrend, 9% the past quarter. Data this week certainly helps: PCE was soft, GDP was in-line, PPI is soft, all pointing to disinflation.
