When investing in the stock market, there is a list of companies that will be familiar to even novice investors. Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, and Walmart are just a few of the companies that grab the attention of investors and make headlines. These are large capitalization, or large cap, companies. But, when building out a successful diversified portfolio, investors cannot overlook small capitalization or small cap companies. These are companies that have a greater chance for growth and, in some cases, have the potential to become the next large cap stocks of the future. Joy Mukherjee, lead portfolio manager of SWIB’s small cap equity strategy, explains the difference between large cap and small cap investments, describes some of the common misconceptions of small cap investments, and talks about how SWIB’s portfolio has capitalized on opportunities that have had a positive impact on the WRS trust funds. #WhySWIB #SWIBEdge https://lnkd.in/gxfnbNe
