Looking back over the 90 years of markets history, it is undeniable that bull markets (markets going up) have, on average, lasted longer than bear markets (markets going down). In addition, bull markets have historically more than made up for any losses in bear markets.

The numbers don’t lie: small-cap stocks are, historically, better performers than large-cap stocks.

Whether you were aware of that statistic or not, you’ve probably been tempted to invest in small caps at some point.

Market strategists headed into 2021 remarkably bullish on small-cap stocks. And so far, their optimism has been greatly rewarded.
