Perhaps a bit naive, but I'll ask the question anyway:

Why would one consciously look for a particular size company to buy?   =
Because the action is in small caps right now?  Does this mean that =
large caps that meet all Canslim requirements with a similar chart are =
more prone to failure?  Why not search for all Canslim candidates and =
let the chips fall where the action is?

  Hi Andreas,

  The definition seems to vary from one place to the next, but these are =
the numbers I see quoted most often:

  Microcap: 50m-300m
  Smallcap: 300m-2b
  Midcap: 2b-10b
  LgCap: >10b

    Hi,

    Question: How big is a micro cap. When does the Smal Cap start?

    I gues that Micros are below 100 Mio?

    Thank you

    Andreas
