News
From the Site:
Small-caps
'can deliver returns'...
Strong stock picking and a
"bias" weighted towards micro-cap stocks
should provide investors with attractive returns.
Thinking
small...
Since 1925, small cap
stocks have outperformed large caps by two to three
percentage points a year with only brief periods of
underperformance. After crunching all the numbers,
O'Shaughnessy expects small caps to return in the range
of 7.6% to 9.6% a year over the next 20 years.
Cheap
Small-Cap Stocks...
As for next year's results, security analysts reporting
to Thomson IBES expect aggregate earnings gains of 16%
for the S&P SmallCap 600 from 2006 to 2007, versus
10% for the S&P 500 and 13% for the S&P MidCap
400.
What
the Market Taught Us in 2006...
The market continues its love affair with small caps.
The most popular small-cap index, the Russell 2000, is
poised to beat or at least tie Standard and Poor's
500-stock index again. Through December 14, the Russell
is up 18% while the S&P 500 is up 16%. That
would make it eight years in a row that small caps have
topped or tied large caps.
Small
Caps Not Done Yet...
Small-cap were expected to stall
this year, but many are still going strong.
