Today’s chart compares the equal-weight S&P 500 ETF (RSP) with the cap-weighted S&P 500 ETF (SPY), both indexed to 100 at the first trading day of 2026.
RSP finished at 112.0 on July 2, 2026, versus 109.6 for SPY. In plain English: the average stock in the index has been leading the index itself this year, a broader setup than the mega-cap-led market investors got used to. 12
