For
Bigger Returns, Look at Small Stocks
By Bruce Mushial
The steady decline
in the stock market has ended, so which stocks are going up? You
might be surprised to find out the hottest stock group isn't the
conservative blue chips or the techs, it's the small cap stocks.
Twenty-eight of the 38 funds Morningstar classifies as micro-cap
have posted double-digit gains so far this year, while large-stock
growth stock funds are down 19 percent as a group. Small-caps
are those companies with a market value less than $400 million.
Through June, micro-cap
funds had a net inflow of $1.5 billion, causing many funds to
close their funds to new investors. So the best opportunities
are in micro-caps and the door has closed to many investors. Where
are you going to go to capture some of these winners for your
portfolio?
Stock Traders Press
has initiated the Mad Money report. This monthly report seeks
out small and micro-cap stocks that are likely to show significant
appreciation. These are the stocks that every savvy investor should
buy now before it is too late. Many fund managers think the market
will continue to favor small cap stocks for a year or two more.
