How does SPY rebalance its portfolio without bleeding capital?


SPY has been half my portfolio for years now

Its an amazing performer, everybody knows that

I even get the thesis, keep the top 500 companies in the portfolio.

What i don’t understand is how it maintains that without bleeding capital. Wouldnt it constantly be selling off its poorest performers at lows, and buying new stocks at all time highs?

I suppose it works best if the megacaps just keep getting bigger, but does this mean that it dips when there are major fluctuations on its lower end?
