An equal-weighted ETF is an exchange-traded fund where each holding within the portfolio is given an equal weight, rather than weighting based on market capitalization or other metrics. Here's a brief overview:

Equal Weighting: In an equal-weighted ETF, every stock in the fund has the same initial allocation regardless of the company's size. For example, if an ETF holds 100 stocks, each stock would represent approximately 1% of the fund's total assets at the time of rebalancing.
Rebalancing: These ETFs typically rebalance periodically (e.g., quarterly or annually) to maintain the equal weight. This means selling shares of stocks that have appreciated in value and buying more of those that have fallen in price or simply redistributing the portfolio back to equal weights.
Pros:
Diversification: Smaller companies have the same influence as larger ones, potentially offering more balanced exposure across the fund's holdings.
Potential for Higher Returns: If smaller or underperforming companies catch up, the ETF might outperform cap-weighted counterparts during certain market conditions.
Discipline: Regular rebalancing enforces a sell-high, buy-low discipline which can be beneficial in volatile markets.
Examples: Some well-known equal-weighted ETFs include:
Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) which applies equal weighting to all S&P 500 companies.
S&P 500 Equal Weighted Index Fund (RSP) for an equal-weighted version of the S&P 500.

Investment Objective:
Tracking: RSP seeks to track the performance of the S&P 500 Equal Weighted Index, which includes 500 of the largest companies based on market capitalization, but each company is given an equal weight.

Key Features:
Equal Weighting: Unlike the traditional S&P 500 Index, where companies are weighted by market cap, RSP allocates an equal weight to each stock, rebalancing quarterly. This approach can offer more diversified exposure across the constituents of the S&P 500 INDEX.

When considering an investment in an equal-weighted ETF, it's important to look at your investment goals, risk tolerance, and how this fits into your broader investment strategy. As with all investments, past performance does not guarantee future results, and you should consider the total expense ratio and other costs associated with the ETF.
