3 Small-Cap Stocks to Buy in August
From their March 2020 lows through today, small-cap stocks have lived up to their reputation as hard-charging growth stocks, handily outperforming their larger brethren.
Where the 500 biggest companies in the stock market have returned some 85% over the last year and a half, the small cap Russell 2000 Index has generated gains in excess of 125%, a record of near 50% outperformance.
Yet the summer doldrums are setting in and small caps are down 3% since July began while the S&P 500 is 3% higher. Because these aren't the ripsnorting returns investors were accustomed to, there may be some small-cap companies offering greater bargains than their bigger siblings, like the three companies below.
