Hi kentuna,

Gosh, the market cap size that differentiates small from large cap =
varies depending on who you talk with these days, so thought I'd just =
point you to Investopedia, where they define each of the sizes as =
follows:

Nano Cap

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/n/nanocap.asp



Micro Cap Stock

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/microcapstock.asp



Small-cap

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/small-cap.asp



Mid Cap Stock

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/midcapstock.asp



Large-cap (Big-Cap)

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/l/large-cap.asp



Mega Cap

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/megacap.asp



Market Capitalization

  Katherine,
  I know this has been discussed before, but would you kindly define =
small cap and large cap again. What is the actual criteria that is used.

    Hi Ian,

    Just a quick note... re your comment "It is also baffling to me that =
the sectors that stand to benefit the most from coming increases in =
government spending - the defense and security sector - are watching =
this action from the sideline as well."=20

    I noticed SFNT powering ahead today. I've also noticed that money is =
definitely coming *out* of the safe-haven defensive issues such as =
healthcare/hospitals, etc. In general, I see far more breakouts than =
I've seen since last year, so all together, still looks promising to me.

      Is anyone else finding any "NEW" winners emerging from this buying =
frenzy?

      It seems to me that several recent rally leaders are rolling over =
ugly today - HITK, LCI, ACET - while the indices power ahead, propelled =
by the most heavily shorted isues.

      It is also baffling to me that the sectors that stand to benefit =
the most from coming increases in government spending - the defense and =
security sector - are watching this action from the sideline as well.

      So am I mising the new leaders of the bull, or is this just =
shot-term traders using liquidity to squeeze heavily shorted positions? =
Opinions? Whither 'M'?

      Ian
