| What Are Small Cap Stocks? |
|
| The meanings of "big cap"
and "small cap" are generally understood by
their names: big-cap stocks are shares of larger companies
and small-cap stocks are shares of smaller companies.
Labels like these, however, are often misleading. If
you don't realize how big "small-cap" stocks
have become, you'll miss some good investment opportunities.
Small-cap stocks are often cited as good investments

will define the "caps" and provide additional
information that will help investors understand terms
that are often taken for granted. |
