- They are believed to provide greater returns but are more volatile than large and mid-cap companies.
- Investors seeking capital appreciation over dividends may consider small-cap growth mutual funds for diversification.
- Three recommended funds are Putnam Small Cap Growth, Northern Small Cap Core Fund, and Fidelity Small Cap Growth, all expected to outperform peers.
- Each fund has specific investment strategies and past performance details.
Bitcoin Returns:
- Bitcoin has been more profitable for investors than any other decentralized form of money.
- In the past three presidential election years, Bitcoin's returns were significant: 2012 +272.4%, 2016 +161.1%, and 2020 +302.8%.
