ISTOCKPHOTO\nSmall-cap stocks, as a group, are bargain-priced relative to more popular large-caps, but you may be surprised at just how cheap they are. And wait until you see their performance from similar valuation levels.\nLook at this 20-year chart, which shows the weighted forward price-to-earnings ratio for the S&P Small Cap 600 Index versus the large-cap benchmark S&P 500 Index:\nFACTSET\nWilliam Watts reported on what appears to be a breakout for small-cap stocks after eight months of relatively flat performance. That is based on the movement of the Russell 2000 Index.\nIn this article, we are focusing on the S&P Small Cap 600 Index, which is far more selective than the Russell 2000 because because most of its companies are profitable. Standard & Poor’s criteria for initial inclusion in the index includes positive earnings for the most recent quarter and for the sum of the most recent four quarters.\nAside from the early coronavirus pandemic doldrums of March 2020, the S&P 600 Small Cap Index hasn’t traded this low, relative to the S&P 500, in 20 years.\nHere’s a breakdown of the relationship between current and average forward P/E ratios for the two indexes, using weighted data compiled by FactSet:\n\nThe small-cap group typically trades much closer to the valuation of the large-caps than it does today.\nNow take a look at a 20-year comparison of total returns for the two indexes:\nFACTSET\nIn an extended bull market, driven in part by historically low interest rates, it is understandable that the best-known stocks (the large-caps) have had the most benefit. But all of the above argue for adding exposure to small-caps for the long term, as part of a diversified portfolio, especially if you have a lot of money in an S&P 500 index fund or exchange traded fund.\nFor a shorter-term case, see this comparison of aggregate consensus 2022 estimates among analysts polled by FactSet for the two indexes:\n\n\nGood numbers across the board — but the estimates are higher for the small-cap group.\nFor both groups, the free-cash-flow estimates are comforting. Free cash flow is a company’s remaining cash flow after planned capital expenditures. It is money that can be used for expansion, dividend increases, stock buybacks or other corporate purposes.\nIf you are fortunate enough to have access to an employer-sponsored retirement account, the most important piece of advice anyone can give you is to contribute at least as much as your employer’s maximum contribution. If you do that, you have an immediate 100% return on your contributions.\nThen you should look at the fees charged by the mutual funds available within the 401(k) or similar plan. Index funds, which typically have lower expenses than actively managed funds, may be available, and these may include a small-cap fund. Your plan may also allow you to put money into a brokerage account, within which you can select exchange traded index funds that also have low expenses.\nHere are a few ETFs that track the S&P Small Cap 600 Index:\n\niShares Core S&P Small Cap ETF \nSPDR Portfolio S&P 600 Small Cap ETF \nVanguard S&P Small Cap 600 ETF \n\nAmong the S&P Small Cap 600, there are 24 stocks with 100% “buy” or equivalent ratings that are each covered by at least five analysts polled by FactSet. Here they are, sorted by the 12-month upside potential implied by the consensus price targets:\n\n\n\n\nCompany\n Industry\nClosing price – Nov. 3\nConsensus price  target\nImplied 12-month upside potential\n\n\nQuinStreet Inc. \nAdvertising/Marketing Services\n$13.44\n$26.80\n99%\n\n\nTactile Systems Technology Inc. \nMedical Specialties\n$36.90\n$69.25\n88%\n\n\nLendingTree Inc. \nFinance/Rental/Leasing\n$151.37\n$238.75\n58%\n\n\nTalos Energy Inc. \nOil & Gas Production\n$13.22\n$19.25\n46%\n\n\nCytokinetics Inc. \nBiotechnology\n$36.67\n$52.50\n43%\n\n\nIchor Holdings Ltd. \nSemiconductors\n$46.04\n$60.40\n31%\n\n\nUltra Clean Holdings Inc. \nSemiconductors\n$55.35\n$72.58\n31%\n\n\nLigand Pharmaceuticals Inc. \nBiotechnology\n$159.96\n$207.86\n30%\n\n\nSmart Global Holdings Inc. \nSemiconductors\n$56.22\n$72.00\n28%\n\n\nTTM Technologies Inc. \nElectronic Components\n$13.99\n$17.79\n27%\n\n\nVista Outdoor Inc. \nRecreational Products\n$43.41\n$54.89\n26%\n\n\nHarmony Biosciences Holdings Inc. \nPharmaceuticals: Major\n$42.93\n$53.80\n25%\n\n\nCivitas Resources Inc. \nIntegrated Oil\n$53.89\n$66.17\n23%\n\n\nGriffon Corp. \nBuilding Products\n$27.22\n$33.33\n22%\n\n\nKorn Ferry \nPersonnel Services\n$79.98\n$97.75\n22%\n\n\nNeoGenomics Inc. \nMedical/Nursing Services\n$46.53\n$56.45\n21%\n\n\nSPX Corp. \nIndustrial Conglomerates\n$62.09\n$75.25\n21%\n\n\nLCI Industries \nMiscellaneous Manufacturing\n$149.50\n$178.00\n19%\n\n\nGreen Plains Inc. \nChemicals: Specialty\n$38.89\n$45.89\n18%\n\n\nDigi International Inc. \nComputer Peripherals\n$23.13\n$27.10\n17%\n\n\nSummit Hotel Properties Inc. \nReal Estate Investment Trusts\n$10.44\n$11.60\n11%\n\n\nVeritex Holdings Inc. \nRegional Banks\n$42.75\n$46.50\n9%\n\n\nOnto Innovation Inc. \nElectronic Production Equipment\n$84.29\n$90.20\n7%\n\n\nAxcelis Technologies Inc. \nElectronic Production Equipment\n$59.04\n$57.17\n-3%\n\n\n\n\nSource: FactSet","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":842717029,"gmtCreate":1636244353760,"gmtModify":1636244354167,"author":{"id":"3581935783281401","authorId":"3581935783281401","name":"Sohtheworld","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7ae9caac52596cfa3b1213625636f0ec","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/842717029","repostId":1135111496,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":846623814,"gmtCreate":1636079234456,"gmtModify":1636079905516,"author":{"id":"3573518300822142","authorId":"3573518300822142","name":"daryllee","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Like","listText":"Like","text":"Like","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/846623814","repostId":1135111496,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":846883025,"gmtCreate":1636072750706,"gmtModify":1636078742272,"author":{"id":"3573540190522229","authorId":"3573540190522229","name":"Bull_Lion","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97c7d011186160cd333508e7d9191f74","vip":1,"crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Come on, small caps - you gotta move it, move it!
