S&P 500's 10 Largest Positions Make Up 38.44% of Index

The S&P 500’s 10 largest positions accounted for 38.44% of the benchmark in an index-weight snapshot, placing more than a third of its weight in a small group of holdings. The 38.44% figure describes their share of the index; it does not measure how much those holdings contributed to its returns. A separate measure shows a gap between the benchmark and its typical member. The equal-weight S&P 500 lagged the standard index by about 6% over six months, while the median constituent stood about 15% below its 52-week high.
