I believe the S&P 600 is an index for small caps.  The top 70 companies
shown on the IBD page average 1b to 2b.  Do you know if there is an
index for micro cap? Later in the B section of IBD there is the Nasdaq
Small Caps section, but I don't think these are the same small caps as
the S&P600.  Most of these appear to be penny stocks.   I am assuming
that the IBS New America index is a mix.  I've seen some pretty big
companies on the New America page (BLL- although I guess 3b is not
considered large).  I don't have WON's HTMMIS with me, but it seems he
recommended staying below a certain mkt cap and I guess I'm trying to
figure out what that is.

 

Thanks,

Lin

Hi Lin,

 

The definition of big/mid/small/micro cap will vary slightly depending
on the source. Here is one definition:

 

Big Cap - Market cap $10 billion and greater 
Mid Cap - $2 billion to $10 billion 
Small Cap - $300 million to $2 billion 
Micro Cap - $50 million to $300 million 
Nano Cap - Under $50 million

What is generally considered to be the mkt cap range on small caps and
also on mid caps?

 

Thanks

 

Lin
