Breadth (composite): spx_equal_weight_vs_spx v2026.08.1. EW/CW native Yahoo overlap (~2007-01); % above 200-DMA from Wikipedia+yfinance (~late-1990s, gate ≥400). A/D line overlay uses same constituents (not MFI weight). Survivorship bias tagged. Pre-overlap months omit breadth and renormalize MFI weights.
