We believe mega-cap stocks, like Apple and Alphabet, that bring regular gains (and a juicy dividend) belong in the "bedrock" of every investor portfolio.
But for really explosive growth, nothing beats small caps. With a market cap from anywhere between $250 million to $2 billion, these companies have the headspace to grow fast, doubling and even tripling before they graduate to big-cap, "household name" status.
Finding those stocks is a question of looking for the "sparks," or catalysts, that always appear immediately before the share price goes up.
Nobody finds these sparks like our Small-Cap Specialist, Sid Riggs, editor of our Small-Cap Rocket Alert trading service. He brings the absolute best small-cap recommendations to his readers with instructions on how to buy, protect a position, or exit.
Now, Sid was in Baltimore for meetings this week, so I took advantage of the chance for a little face time with him to find out for our Members what kind of small-cap opportunities he's researching right now, and what he thinks of the segment as a whole in 2017.
