Inflation-Adjusted Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP)

The Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) tracks the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index, offering a unique approach by giving each company in the index an equal allocation.

Evaluating an investment's performance accurately means looking beyond nominal returns to understand its real-world value. This page adjusts RSP's historical prices for inflation using the US Consumer Price Index, revealing its true growth in purchasing power. Use the interactive charts and data tables to see the fund's actual long-term performance.

Nominal prices are adjusted for stock splits and assume reinvestment of any dividends to reflect total return. Inflation-adjusted prices use December 2025 as the baseline (latest available CPI).

The current value of the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF is 198.26 (as of the close of Jan 28, 2026), 0.7% lower than the all-time high of 199.66 (Jan 22, 2026).

Since May 1, 2003, the inflation-adjusted total return for the ETF has been 521%, which is equivalent to an annual growth rate of 8.36%.

In nominal values, the total return since this date has been 996.66%, or an annualized rate of 11.1%.

Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Etf: Average Annualized Returns

Annualized returns show the average rate of growth per year, making it easier to compare performance across different time periods. While nominal returns indicate the headline growth, adjusting for inflation reveals the actual change in purchasing power.

This table presents both nominal and inflation-adjusted average annual returns for the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight over various trailing periods ending December 31, 2025, offering a clearer view of long-term, real investment performance.

Period Avg. Annual Return (Inflation-Adjusted) Avg. Annual Return (Nominal)
Last 1 year 8.31% 11.2%
Last 3 years 9.31% 12.55%
Last 5 years 5.56% 10.27%
Last 10 years 8.01% 11.46%
Last 20 years 6.96% 9.66%

Real Returns of Investing in the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight

The chart and table below show the nominal and inflation-adjusted value of a hypothetical $100 investment over various long-term historical periods, ending in September 2025.

The inflation-adjusted line, in green, represents the real increase in purchasing power for the initial investment. Observe the gap between both lines, which illustrates the cumulative effect of inflation over time.

Even over just five years, inflation takes a noticeable bite out of investments. Investing $100 in the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight five years ago yielded an 52.86% nominal gain, but the real return (the actual increase in buying power) was 23.79%.

As investment periods get longer, the difference between reported nominal returns and the inflation-adjusted gains usually becomes much greater due to the compounding effect of inflation over time.

Investment Period What $100 Grew To (Nominal) Total Nominal Return (%) Total Inflation-Adjusted Return (%)
Last 5 years Feb 2021 - Sep 2025 $152.86 52.86% 23.79%
Last 10 years Feb 2016 - Sep 2025 $306.16 206.16% 123.51%

About the Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF

The Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (RSP) is an exchange-traded fund from Invesco that tracks the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index. Launched in April 2003, RSP takes a different approach from traditional market-cap-weighted ETFs by assigning an equal weight to each of the 500 stocks in the S&P 500 Index at each quarterly rebalancing.

This methodology reduces concentration risk in the largest companies and provides greater exposure to smaller firms in the S&P 500. RSP is favored by investors seeking a more balanced exposure to the US large-cap market.
