- Equal-weight failed. Now tech stocks look shaky again. So what should you do about S&P 500 risk?
Equal-weight S&P 500 funds have again trailed the standard market-cap index in 2026, with September's drop of more than 4% marking their longest multi-week losing streak since 2022. Recent gains have been highly concentrated: Goldman Sachs says market breadth is at its lowest since the dotcom bubble, and The Kobeissi Letter finds 42 AI stocks generated 67% of the S&P 500's price return since the start of 2024. DataTrek notes equal weight has lagged the cap-weighted index in any one-year holding period for almost four years, while tech makes up about 16% of the equal-weight index versus nearly 40% of the standard one. TMX VettaFi's Todd Rosenbluth advises combining cap-weighted ETFs such as VOO and SPYM with equal-weight options like RSP or EQL rather than choosing one, or adding mid-cap funds such as IJH. Baird Strategas' Todd Sohn says investors should keep their eyes open, noting Nvidia is larger than the S&P 500's entire consumer discretionary sector.

- There's a $12,000 Reason to Consider Investing in QQQ Over SPY, but It Comes With a Caveat
QQQ tracks the 100 largest nonfinancial stocks on the Nasdaq, and its top five holdings (Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Micron and Amazon) make up 30% of the fund. Over 20 years, $1,000 invested in QQQ would be worth $20,000 (16.1% annualized total return), versus $8,000 (11% annualized) for SPY, with less volatility. Technology and communication names make up almost 48% of the S&P 500, while financials account for almost 12%, a group QQQ excludes. QQQ fell 36% from its peak when the Federal Reserve raised rates rapidly in 2021 and 2022, compared with a roughly 25% drawdown for SPY. The author views QQQ's outperformance as a risk premium and warns it could take an outsized hit if AI-related enthusiasm turns into a bubble that bursts.

- Why Bristol Gate Canadian Equity Strategy Bought OR Royalties Inc. (OR) After Gold's Pullback
Bristol Gate Capital Partners' Q3 2026 investor letter for its Canadian Equity Strategy said the strategy underperformed the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index, which gained 1.6% in the quarter, as market returns concentrated in a few large stocks and rising bond yields weighed on defensive and rate-sensitive sectors. The strategy reallocated capital into OR Royalties (NYSE:OR), a precious-metals royalty company, after gold fell more than 25% from its January peak. The letter cited the company's cash margin of about 97% and minimal debt. As of October 30, 2026, OR shares closed near $31.89, with a market cap of about $5.88 billion, after a one-month return of about -7.13%. Hedge fund holders numbered 29 at the end of Q2, down from 35 in the prior quarter.
- Tom Lee Calls Bottom on AI Stock Selloff, Citing Tight Supply and Crypto Resilience
Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee told CNBC the AI stock selloff has reached its bottom, arguing demand remains constrained by supply. He pointed to crypto's limited reaction to the Binance hack, initially estimated at about $6.3 billion, as a sign that many sellers have already exited. Despite strong AI demand, Intel shares plunged nearly 30% to $65.76 after a weak fourth-quarter forecast, due to manufacturing constraints and a weaker PC business. Bitcoin fell about 4% to roughly $76,400, and U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $643.2 million in outflows that day. Binance said about $3 billion of the affected assets had been frozen.
- Why Marvell Technology Plunged Today
Marvell Technology (MRVL) shares fell 10% by 12:54 p.m. EDT after the company agreed to buy optical laser maker Lumentum (LITE) in an all-stock deal valuing it at roughly $115 billion, a 24% premium. Investors worried Marvell may be paying a steep price, since Lumentum's stock had already risen sharply over two years and the purchase price was more than five times its share price a year earlier. The article says Marvell is drawn to Lumentum's indium phosphide laser technology, which could be combined with Marvell's digital signal processors and connectivity for next-generation AI systems as co-packaged optics spread inside server racks. It also notes AI stocks are volatile and have recovered from past selloffs, while investors fear the upcoming midterm elections.
