Hi, James: I think the trading symbol that you are looking for is RSP, the unweighted S$P 500. It is interesting to note from the relative chart below ($SPX:RSP)that the wighted S&P 500 has been underperforming the unweighted one. pcyhuang huangcapital.com

Hi Jim, Re: Equal Weight ETFs.............. RSP is the Equal Weight ETF that was brought out by Rydex. It's the same basic components as SPY or IVV but non-Cap. weighted. stockcharts.com While I was looking it up (because I couldn't remember it!) I happened to find this one: QQEW - Equal Weight NASDAQ 100 Index ETF. This should perform differently from QQQQ if the history continues is any indication. You can stretch the X-axis to 251 days and it shows a full calendar year. Or you can stretch it all the way back to 1999 if you want to see the long term. stockcharts.com Hope this helps................. Best regards, Tom
