Tom Discusses Different Cap Level Stocks

Transcript:

Easan Arulanantham:

You talked about small cap, but what small cap? And you know, is there certain like criteria that has to meet? And what are the other caps, I guess?

Tom Vaughan:

So generally speaking, you know, when you talk, there’s four capitalization categories, large, mid, small and micro cap. And again, all of them are based on the number of shares, they have outstanding times the current price. And so that’s what’s called the market capitalization. So you’re really big companies like Apple and Facebook, and what have you or your large cap. And so as you move down, the actual dividing lines of what small and what’s large is a little bit all over the place.

It depends on what system you’re looking at. And so like, Vanguard has a very specific methodology that they use to determine what is large, mid and small, but it might be different than another company’s, the S&P 500, which is supposedly a big company. You know, index actually has a lot of mid cap companies, if you look at what Morningstar how they cap cattle, categorize. So there’s, there’s, you know, it’s not a uniform process to figure out which ones which in those areas, but it’s, it’s, you know, it’s not a bad way of looking at the markets to see what is happening. Understanding market capitalization, I think is is important. Yeah.
