LOS ANGELES, Calif., July 9, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Equities.com, an online financial publication and social community for investors, is proud to invite self-directed investors and the rest of the investment community to access the Small-Cap Stars for an update to see how our 2014 class has done over the first half of the year.
Equities.com's Small-Cap Stars is a proprietary research tool based on a list of promising companies in the small-cap space selected by our institutional-style algorithms. The goal is to identify which fundamental criteria were most important to a stock's success for companies with a market cap of $50 Million to $1 Billion over the previous 12 month period, and then finds stocks that are in a similar position of anticipated growth today.
The 2013 class of Small-Cap Stars produced a cumulative gain of over 48%, outpacing broader indices like the S&P 500, DJIA, and the Russell 2000.*
Year-to-date, the 2014 Small-Cap Stars roster is just as impressive, with a cumulative gain of over 7% for the month of June.*
The Small-Cap Stars is meant for research and informational purposes only, and is not for investment recommendation purposes.
