- (0:50) - What Are the Pros and Cons of Inverse Weighting?
- (5:00) - How Does RVRS Handle Underperforming Stocks?
- (7:20) - RVRS Overview: Notable Trends
- (9:45) - Episode Roundup: Podcast@Zacks.com
On this special edition of the Zacks Friday Finish Line, hosts and editors Maddy Johnson and Ryan McQueeney are joined once again by Phil Bak, the CEO of ACSI Funds and Exponential ETFs.
Phil is a widely regarded expert in the development, management, and trading of ETFs, and he and his team recently launched the Reverse Cap Weighted U.S. ETF , a fund that seeks to weight companies by the inverse of their relative market cap.
Together, we discussed this “upside down” approach to investing. For instance, iPhone maker Apple (AAPL - Free Report) is the largest component of the S&P 500, but the company would be the smallest component of RVRS; small cap stocks, then, would hold the heaviest positions. Phil walks us through the advantages of this methodology, and how it compares to traditional market cap weighting.
The Friday Finish Line team would like to thank Mr. Bak for joining us on the show. You can also listen to his previous talk with us about America’s most loved and hated companies.

Zacks Names "Single Best Pick to Double"
From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.
It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.
This company could rival or surpass other recent Zacks’ Stocks Set to Double like Boston Beer Company which shot up +143.0% in little more than 9 months and NVIDIA which boomed +175.9% in one year.
