S&P 500 Sector Weights Over Time

Each GICS sector’s share of the combined market value of today’s S&P 500 companies, %, end of each month, stacked

Information Technology: 36.1% in Oct 2026+12.1 pp since Jan 2021
Current·Data to Oct 2026

Plays the chart through its history. Pauses are where the data set a record or moved most.

Calculated by Palanor: each company’s closing price × its current share count, from licensed closing prices and SEC filings, summed by GICS sector over today’s S&P 500 members. Applying today’s members and sectors to past dates leaves out companies that have since left the index (survivorship bias). Not S&P Dow Jones Indices’ official, float-adjusted sector weights.

How the value of today’s S&P 500 companies divides among the eleven sectors, month by month. Information Technology is the largest; a rising band means that sector’s stocks did better than the rest of the index.
