Excluding volatile food and energy components, the core PCE price index rose 4.2% in July, year-on-year, also in line with estimates. Salesforce (CRM.N) rallied following upbeat revenue forecasts from the cloud-based software provider as it benefits from price hikes and a resilient demand. The data follows smaller-than-expected growth in private payrolls on Wednesday that signaled a softening labor market and drove the S&P 500 to a three-week closing high. All three main indexes posted losses for August, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq logging their first monthly declines since February.

As a result, investing in equal-weighted ETFs that provide a more diversified approach and offer exposure to old economy-linked sectors such as energy and manufacturing are coming back in favor as investors look to broaden their exposure beyond Big Tech. Laura Cooper of BlackRock said the company's "highest conviction call" in the United States is the S&P 500 equal-weight. The $42-billion Invesco S&P 500 equal-weighted ETF , which mirrors the performance of the S&P 500 equal-weight index (.SPXEW), saw inflows of $8.80 billion from the beginning of June through Aug. 25, according to Refinitiv Lipper data. In comparison, the much larger $402-billion SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust , which tracks moves in the market cap weighted S&P 500 (.SPX), bled $10.88 billion during the same period. Invesco S&P 500 equal-weighted ETF drew $4.85 billion inflows in June, the most since the fund was launched in 2003, followed by $3.53 billion in July, the second highest on record.
