AI Summary

Original Reddit post

Author argues the S&P 500 is top-heavy with AI spending and is moving holdings to revenue-weighted ETF RWL for lower concentration and a smoother ride if the market dives.

RWL — LONG The author believes the top 10 companies in the S&P 500, at 39.62% weight, are overvalued due to heavy AI capex funded by debt and could drop sharply in a downturn. RWL, a revenue-weighted S&P 500 ETF, has much lower weighting inequality, with the top 24 companies making up around 40%, providing better diversification. The author is moving significant portions of holdings to RWL for a smoother short-term ride if the market takes a dive, while long-term performance remains similar.

I'm moving significant portions of my holdings to a revenue-weighted version of the S&P 500. I'm using Invesco's RWL
