When is it better to hold equal-weighted S&P ETF?


I have some cash I want to put back into the market. Is it better to buy equal-weighted instead of market-cap weighted S&P 500 ETF? Some reasons why:

  • Nvidia's advancements is going to “democratize AI” by making it cheaper. This means smaller companies might be able to displace bigger companies.

  • I expect a period of growth in the next 6-12 months due to rate hike pausing. In these type of environments investors are going to move out of the safe tech bets (like Apple, Microsoft) and get back into more speculative, smaller cap names.

  • I already hold stocks like Google, Amazon, and a lot of Apple & Tesla. I also wheel stocks like FB and Nvidia, so might get stuck with them as well.

Would love your opinions. Or if you just have general thoughts to share about equal vs market cap weighting, that's great as well.
