I just read an article that said equal weighting the stocks in the S&P 500 has outperformed the market cap S&P 500 by as much as 2.8% per year over a long period of time.
The reasoning made sense to me - lower valuations and selling stocks that have run up to buy those that have lagged (contrarian approach).
The article mentioned the above fund, INDEX. Are there other funds that do this? Do you think this approach makes sense?
