Invesco S&P 500® Equal Weight Consumer Staples ETF
Invesco S&P 500® Equal Weight Consumer Staples ETF (RSPS) is an exchange-traded fund designed to provide investors with exposure to consumer staples companies in the S&P 500 on an equal-weight basis. Instead of weighting firms by market capitalisation, each eligible company receives roughly the same weight, which can reduce concentration in the largest names and offer a different risk/return profile than a cap-weighted consumer staples fund. RSPS may appeal to investors seeking targeted sector exposure with a tilt away from mega-cap dominance, but it is still concentrated in one sector and subject to equity market volatility. The fund will incur fees and can generate turnover from periodic rebalancing. Dividends may be paid, but income and capital returns are not guaranteed. This is general educational information and not personal advice; consider your goals, risk tolerance and suitability, and consult a financial adviser if unsure.
