Yep. These indexes are reconstructed every so often, maybe 1-4 times per year depending.
As that happens, companies that aren’t growing relative to the markets will make up smaller allocations within the ETF index themselves.
A problem with ETFs may come when one sector makes up far too much of the index. Think tech bubble circa 2000 when tech made up over 30% of the SP500. You would have been too exposed to a bubble asset.
Those excesses aren’t here to those extremes. At least not today.
