Subject: Re: OT: Asking for investment advice
Btw Jim made it clear that he was thinking on long time horizons. My fault to not make it clear that it's probably just for 3-5 years.

Regarding your
... returns have been better for market cap weighted indices than equal-weighted
You might be absolutely right, but because of the only medium-term horizon I am afraid something dramatic happening to one of the heavyweights could hugely negatively influence the performance (e.g. Apple and China). Therefore in the interest of stability rather equal than cap weighted.
