That is true. VOO is tech heavy even though not as bad as QQQ. There's RSP which is equal weighted S&P500 which has not gone up as linearly as VOO in the past five years, but is surely going up on a longer time horizon. Another option is to have some exposure into international equities but they have not done well at all (take VEU for example). Or like you mentioned, we should pick and choose assets and allocate and manage manually. These days, even GLD is not a bad idea.
Based on his statement SPX didn't close higher than it opened either. Market open $6778.06 vs close $6774.76. Neither did QQQ, DJI, or RSP. What he's intentionally ignoring is the AH jump leading up to today's open. I'm not sure what significance that has...maybe it means something to some people? But yes, during normal trading hours everything went down.
Sure. SPY closed lower... But SPX closed higher. QQQ up 1.45%. DJI? up. RSP? up. It's ridiculous to imply today was bearish.
I would just buy an equal weight S&P ETF like RSP
Not sure if you could remove them, since there is weight to them and is probably hard to rebalance, meaning something else needs to take it's spot. I think looking at the equal weight is probably something closer to what you want. Something like the SPXEW or RSP.
The smart bols would have moved to either IWM or RSP by now drooling, cockeyed bols still sitting in Qs and SPY.
Because you’re only watching mega tech. Look at RSP.
Sorry and welcome. I'm 50% VOO and 50% equal weight S&P (RSP). I'm tired of paying short term cap gains to tie S&P performance.
A lot of overlap. I would switch out RSP for VOO.
Equal-weight S&P 500 (RSP) and international equity (VXUS)
There are plenty of academics skeptical about the FF5 model and other anomalies. For instance, Aswath Damodaran has seen no effect of the size premium since the early 1980s, when it was first observed by Banz. Andrew Lee has not seen any factor premium observed out of sample. The data from the Fama-French data library suggests that. After the FF3 model was established, the size premium has been zero in the US and positive but nearly zero (not statistically significant) in Developed ex-US and Emerging markets. It's been strongly negative in the US and negative in Developed ex-US and Emerging after the FF5 model was established. The investment premium has similarly been negative in the US (and essentially zero in Developed) after it was introduced as a factor in the FF5 model. I'm inclined to believe Damodaran's interpretation that "you have to do something to get something" for these factors. In any case, the smaller companies in the S&P 500 would still be considered large cap using the break points for Fama and French. There are better ways to decrease exposure to the Mag 7, if you were inclined to do so, than to use the RSP. There are much better ways to tilt towards SMB if you believed in the factor premium.
Just buy the equal-weight S&P 500 (RSP).
Consumer staples have almost never been this cheap as a sector (notwithstanding the overvaluation of COST and WMT). The tech sector has rarely had valuations as high as they are now. AAPL at a P/E of 37? C’mon. I’m in favour of buying the equal-weight S&P 500 (RSP) instead of VOO.
Try RSP. It's been a champ recently.
Equal weight is a volatility reducer period IMO. I hate when my RSP part of my portfolio is doing well because that means I’m losing money as a whole. If this equal weight thing spreads and becomes a contagion we may have a repeat of 2022 despite earnings growth.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a week where so many analysts and tv pundits mentioned the RSP *this much*… Time to make some larger bets on the Mag 7, you mfers don’t fool me lol
The SP500 index has continued to grow over time because it cycles in winners and cycles out losers. It also adds more weight to the growing and successfuly companies. Today, those growing and successful companies are indeed tech as the world moves more digital. Index can grow because you have tech megacaps making $100b in profits a year. Forget about profit, you have many members of SP500 who don't even have $100b in revenue each year, and not even close. Let's take a KO as an example. I am a shareholder, but I recognize it is not going to be the one moving the index forward. I have it to get a bigger distribution than VOO/SPY, acknowledging it will have lower long term capital growth. I guess point is you can't have your cake and eat it too. Had you divested of tech, you would have substantially smaller gains than someone in VOO/SPY who gained from tech. The whole point of the index is to let it do the work for you - not have you guess which companies or sector is going to grow. Also there is a place for many types of equities depending on your goals (as my KO example illustrates). Data: RSP (SP500 Equal weight): 1Y: 6% / 5Y: 54% VOO: 1Y: 13% / 5Y: 87%
My core is S&P 500 market weighted ETFs, but I do keep a variable allocation of S&P 500 equal weighted to reduce my concentration at the top. I target 23-25% for the top 10 tickers and no more than 5% for the top ticker (obviously that's NVDA right now). Considering I already have things other than S&P 500 in my portfolio (mid-caps, small-caps, internationals, and a bit of gold) it doesn't take much RSP to tilt away from mega-cap concentration.
RSP (equal weight SPX) and IWM (small caps) hit ATHs and just keep ripping, rotation into tech soon inshallah
I like to keep an eye on RSP versus SPY as well as QQQE versus QQQ
Equal weight S&P like RSP is the medium-term play, but it lacks the options liquidity of SPY.
The alternative isn't cash, but reasonably valued equities. I think all of the following ETfs will outperform the S&P 500 over the next decade: \- AVUV (small-cap value) \- VXUS (international) \- RSP (equal-weight S&P 500)
Short crypto long RSP is the trade for the next few months
So, the fun thing that kills this thesis is that macro fundie based selloffs are not Nasdaq led selloffs post 2022. They're IWM/RSP led selloffs and there is a lot more "the Nasdaq is doing this on its own" then people like to believe with 2023-2025. It's not as fun of a deal as just saying straight up "FU Trump," but a good portion of what was going on early this year until April was more "the Nasdaq is doing this on AI fears" over "the market is doing this to try and price in tariffs."
Idk how it actually compares but RSP is the S&P 500 equal weighted ETF. Probably similar to XMAG but I haven’t looked into it to confirm
The tech portion is the reason, hence why RSP equal weight moon.
Why so ber here? Dow and RSP mooning, ATH in several ETFs. Midcaps skyrocketing
RSP is the only thing keeping spy from free falling lol
It looked as if it was going to get very nasty, but then markets remembered that it's December. We'll see if it sticks though because the Dow and RSP have a nasty habit of trying to go at it on their own and then succumbing to overwhelming tech selling. This gets very interesting if Broadcom gets touched up, me thinks.
What's interest is watching aftermarket. It's not saying this... RSP is green though so maybe.
I like market weighing AND I don’t like excessive concentration. This is not contradictory. So at some arbitrary point (3% ?) it gets too concentrated for my risk appetite. Mag7 aggregate is at 35%. If the next ones are 20% then it is back to what the top 7 or so have been for last 30 yrs. No issue there. I dont want to remove all of tech. There’s plenty of tech which is not AI had a huge runup. Btw I didn’t know about RSP before posting this. They are even smaller than XMAG.
RSP (equal weight sp500) hit all time high. Money moved out of MAG8 and into everything else defensively
Consider RSP, it's SnP 500 with equal weight rather than weighted by market cap.
You seem to have two theses that are opposite each other: 1- cap weighting sorts winners from losers. Cap weighting good. 2- cap weighting creates too much concentration risk. Cap weighting bad. If it's just about concentration risk, RSP seems exactly correct for you. Excluding the mag 7 just makes the next handful become the highest concentration and you could cite the same problem again. In an x-mag7 fund, the top 7 stocks are about 20% of the fund. That is down from 30%, but still concentration risk. It's not a very good solution. If your thesis is specific to AI bubble, then you can be much more specific than just x-mag7 with an x-tech fund.
You could try “TOPC” this is an iShares S&P 500 3% cap weighted ETF. Fits nicely in the middle between XMAG and RSP.
Paying 35 basis points to systematically exclude the companies driving the market’s returns is a questionable strategy. With only roughly $71M in assets, XMAG is a liquidity ghost town that faces real closure risk compared to major funds. If you hate concentration, RSP (S&P 500 Equal Weight) is the standard alternative with actual volume and history. Paying 10x the fees of VOO just to cap your upside seems backward.
Continued: If just one of Mag 7 draws down by 40% (let’s say TSLA with 2.4% —> 1.4% ) that’s at least a 1% drop for VOO. The higher fee & spread of ~ 0.33% compares well to that scenario. With all the media talk about an AI bubble and Mag7 being a large portion of the market, I’m surprised this ETF or equivalent hasn’t been more popular yet. I also think it’s better than an equal-weight ETF (like RSP WITH 0.20% fees). Market cap weighing sorts winners from losers. What do you think ?
RSP up more than SPY. Rotation out of Mag 7 confirmed.
IWM isn’t flat. RSP isn’t flat.
They do, it's called RSP. Equal-weight index, and it's been pretty shit this year overall. I watch it for the overall health of the market these days
Yeah, my response was immediately disliked in the other forum, but it's worth saying this as a warning: Asian traders use more leverage and take a lot more risks than American traders do. Based on the way RSP has acted since Japanese yields started rising and the Nasdaq topping with the Nikkei 225 top, I have no choice but to believe that Japan/Asia is an issue in some form again. Maybe not as "BAD" as last year as in something that's flash crashy on a morning, but there's some mild impact.
So buy an equal weight ETF like RSP if you're concerned about overweight stuff in SPY.
Low volume, cats away mice play, well pass the weekly expected move. I can see why you thought SPY should have gone down with your analysis and I wouldn't be shocked if Friday was a blood bath... But still I can't be bearish with HYG ripping higher and RSP equal weight already breaking its downtrend closing higher than its recent swing high. If SPY follows RSP's footsteps, Friday will be a literal freight train. I have to step aside. We cannot push our will unto the market, only trade what it gives us
I’ve been hearing for months that RSP is going to fly and I am almost going to start believing
Yeah, they won't be doing anything for a while unless a structural problem shows up. It's why there's a plausible bear case where a combination of freaking out about rate cuts not helping labor and worries that AI has gotten over its skis could drag markets in spite of us seeing rate cuts. Either it's that or tech takes an extended breather while the Dow/RSP push and you get no material pullback by the SPX.
You don't have to find out yourself, how about an equal weighted S&P 500 ETF, like the RSP?
I’m surprised it performed as well as it did. Only 2% under performance compared to VOO. Netted almost double RSP
Why I am downvoting you? Without Mag7, market is mostly chill. RSP is an equal weight Spy500 ETF. It is up since last 5 days, -1% in one month and +8% ytd. The fact that you pick gamble stocks that are on the downside has very little to do with "the market".
This chart should explain everything there is to know https://portfolioslab.com/tools/stock-comparison/RSP/SPY The equal weighted S&P is always worse than the heavy-hitter weighted SPY. Thats just the way the economy works
So your pitch is stop looking at the highly profitable established international companies and start being worried about micro caps with no income Well yeah, there are plenty of years IWM or RSP don’t beat SPY (and those companies are **far better** than the companies you listed here) but we still call it a bull market. And we still say VOO and chill. There’s a reason it isn’t called SMR an chill
50% RSP - America's most established 500 companies, actually diversified. 35% SMH - computers and electronics have been the economic engine for decades and will continue to be, whether LLMs continue to grow or get replaced by something "more intelligent", market share may change but the need for chips won't 15% VYMI - established international companies Forget bonds. Bonds move in the same direction as stocks just more slowly. They aren't a hedge any more.
This is still going to be interesting to see how this plays out as while this is an impressive 2 of 3 days by the Dow/RSP, they're below their records and the Nasdaq lagging like this could be a problem or could be nothing (maybe it's fall 2020 again and tech takes a long breather while other stuff pushes markets, idk). Or maybe we're pricing in Kevin Hassett being nominated Fed chair. Full on hack, but at least it'll make it clear rates are going to 0.
Might actually be something to this, but there definitely is still AI fears going on as while the tech sector has tried to turn green from being buried initially at the bell, it's been denied twice now. It will be interesting what occurs when RSP lets off the gas as it inevitably will. Can the Nasdaq take over like it has from time to time, or will the Nasdaq lead us lower?
RSP was up 1% and then you bought puts ok man
RSP is up 1% and you are buying puts?? are you retarded
But even RSP contains the same stocks just the weight is different...
RSP equal weight and IWM outperformance tells me rotation is taking place. If we were to get more selling it would be with high correlations as all equities sell. Seeing strength in non AI names tells me the fear isn't of the bubble popping, yet. There was a lot of complex factors leading to this selloff such as cross border flows particularly Korean and Japan, leading to CTA algos unwinding from max long, and negative gamma environment forcing dealers to chase the downside exacerbating the volatility. We also had all of the opex puts get wiped out today which is what fueled this rally as much as it did today. I expect that to continue into next week and even if there are no active buyers, dealers will be buying to close shorts as more puts roll off their book and it alone will be enough to move prices higher.

You mean more like pre-2023 as while the Composite didn't get back to a record in 2023, it was thoroughly impressive after it looked like it was dead to rights due to interest rates for almost a full year in jumping 40%+ for 2023. You really can't assign much of the Nasdaq move post 2022 bottom on Trump at all outside of the April flash crash this year. ChatGPT was released in late 2022, but what officially broke the Nasdaq correlation with treasury bonds in regards to inflation concerns was ironically the regional bank festival in early 2023. Once the Fed showed that they had the back of banks, that was the end of that correlation working well. There are occasional signs here and there of that correlation being back, but I still don't think it's working correctly. The Dow/RSP were pretty weak coming in 2025 btw. While there were some warning signs with semis before this year, it was not clear that any rotation would stick. It was only clear that if tech rolled that the markets were in trouble.
RSP equal weight S&P 500, highest volume ever? Quite unusual.
Nah, Blake was nuts before then too. And he was intentionally making a bit of a media circus around that, to draw attention to the complete lack of due diligence on the subject in the research field. Basically, his argument was that for decades we held the Turing test as the best consensus standard for when a machine can be considered conscious - everyone knew it was a bit flawed, but nobody had come up with anything better. And as soon as that Turing test was suddenly and completely blown out of the water... Everyone just fell back to carbon cheuvanism. Blake was extremely alarmed that, despite everyone insisting that the machine was not conscious, nobody could actually tell him *why* it was not conscious, and nobody had figured out how to objectively tell if it was or wasn't conscious. Anthropic's RSP is kind of similar to the sort of thing he was advocating for. Separately, Blake is also certifiably 100% insane, and will be the first to tell you that. But he was a really friendly guy. Unfortunately I don't know if I can say that today, he did take a turn for the worse a couple years ago.
I have a very minor position in RSP. Fees are higher than I'd like which is what I don't have a larger position, though. If you want to compare performance of S&P market vs equal weighting, a simple yet imperfect way is to compare SPY vs RSP
What the Dow/RSP is doing is getting into very problematic territory (they can't find a bid off an ATH and near ATH), but sadly, today isn't a macro fundamental based move. If it was, then IWM and QQQ would be switched performance wise. It's something more sinister. It's either circular AI investments being doubted or crypto is dragging the Nasdaq with it lower. It's likely both and if Bitcoin remains under 100k, the Nasdaq will remain at a very high risk of slipping further to join it.
Thanks for posting this. You are correct. I relooked at this deeper. Going even further back in the most days of the 500, before there were actual EW funds I can find, EW did handily outperform (58-16). That said, the Mag-7 run since 2017 is the performance that you chop down using EW. I don’t think that can be discounted here. There does seem to be a structural difference in how the large tech companies perform. Nonetheless, it’s so close that yes, RSP is as good until very recently or better. And it’s better if you back calculate it to the late 50’s when the 500 was first instituted. Before you could buy it EW in fairness and when the market and technology was far different. So it’s a much tougher comparison than I thought. Thanks for pointing it out.
RSP down .39% SPY down 1.18% this morning.
I say raise rates. Even at these levels HYSA outperforming RSP SCHD IWM.
If you buy even a little RSP it will diversify you much more than just VOO. Less growth, but lower volatility. Ideal for older people near retirement.
5-year compound annual growth rate of 8.9% for RSP compared to 14.7% for VAUG, and the S&P 500 index has a CAGR of 16.4%
RSP dumped more than SPY did today. That shit's fucked up.
RSP down more than SPY today, chief.
Just buy mid-caps. Mids and RSP correlate very strongly. Vanguard’s VOnis the bread and butter here.
XMAG is this. RSP (equal-weighted S&P fund) is similar in that it dramatically reduces tech exposure. For the record, I am not saying either of these are good investments- but they are what you are asking for!
Equal weight RSP kind of does, since everything in the S&P 500 is equal weighted as opposed to market cap weighted.
RSP. I've owned it for years. It's essentially a mid-cap fund, and it's done pretty well.
RSP has outperformed SPY since inception on price and until August of this year on a total return basis. Without the mag-7’s run since 2017 the outperformance would be even wider.
Shit like this drives me nuts. Cheaper doesn’t always mean better. 15 bps isn’t a lot and won’t blow up a thesis if it’s correct. I’m surprised RSP still charges .20 but let’s not pretend that’s expensive by any stretch of the imagination. VTSAX is a cap weighted index and isn’t even comparable.
RSP equal weighted SPX is rolling over - this weakness looks like the top has been put in and it’s the major down correction / wash out time !
Get a clue, the market will never crash, it’ll correct, but it will never crash. What we saw in April is the closest thing to a crash that we will see in our lifetimes. Before that, Covid, The first half of 2026 will correct, the rest of the year will trade sideways, we’ll eck out 8% return on the year. RSP will trend higher, MAG7 will trade sideways, then the next decade, expect GDP to grow 2% per year for a decade. We’ll still see 8-10% annual returns. The average person loses when they panic sell.
I just looked up some bullshit called spxew the fund that tracks it is called RSP. Equal weighted s&p500 index. He could invest in that instead. The average daily volume is decent I suppose.... Down 1.13% today. But it's up 7.6% for the year! Yay?
RSP, Invesco's equal-weight S&P 500 ETF, is down 2.1% from its ATH on Oct 27. I'm actually fairly bearish about the market over the next two years or so, but it's not crashing yet. Not sure what you mean by "invest like your 70." I sort of thought it might mean "put most of your money into high-dividend stocks." But according to you, those are the stocks that are doing the *worst*?
I'd split it 50:50 between VXUS and RSP (equal-weight S&P 500).
The hack is look at it alongside RSP. If RSP is moving in sync with SPY, it's real. It's often slower than SPY so it helps to filter out the volatility noise for entries.
EQUAL WEIGHT. An example is RSP. Please read what it is before downvoting me...
They basically did. It’s called the RSP.
Money flow into other sector. Mag 7 down, RSP up, IWM slight down.
Equal weight S&P 500 (RSP) is up about 58% in the past five years, so there has definitely been growth outside of big tech. Earnings have grown too, not as fast as the MAG 7, but steady. The idea that everything else has gone nowhere just is not true. If anything, it shows the broader market has been healthy even without relying on AI hype.
RSP is also up. The over concentration in the mag 7 is fading. Good thing imo.
RSP and QQEW still nice and green
