Remember that the S&P 500 Index is a moving target.

The "committee" can change their emphasis on sectors and restructure the Index to their current views. That means they could deemphasize Financials and add weight to a sector they like better to make the "index" look better.

This is where equal-weight funds like RSP keep a committee from monkey business.
