Who should invest?
Small-cap stocks give investors an edge over institutional investors. This is because institutional investors prefer to buy large-cap stocks due to their preference for stability. Whereas aggressive investors who are ready to take risk for higher returns invest in small cap funds. This means that investors who have the ability to take more market risk can consider investing in the small cap category. When an investor is building a stock portfolio for himself, it is important for him to have a benchmark against which he can compare returns.
(Note: It is not guaranteed whether the past returns in any equity fund will continue or not. This may or may not continue in the future. There are risks in the market, so seek expert advice before investing.)
