The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

This is an interesting twist on RSP. I wasn't aware until recently that there is a Fortune 500 equal weight ETF available.

Fortune 500 are the biggest US 500 by revenue, not biggest by market cap like the SP500.

There are 454 holdings since not all Fortune 500 are publicly listed and private companies can't be included. On average, 120 constituents in this index are not found in SP500 which I thought was a surprisingly high number. Has apparently outperformed RSP by 100 basis points since 1996. Expense ratio is 0.2 which is the same as RSP.

For equal weight allocation, any reason to prefer this over RSP?
