The Micro Cap Investor

Learn how today's smartest investors are discovering opportunities--and reaping profits--ahead of the Wall Street pros

Micro cap stocks are all but ignored by professional investors who can't risk losing their companies' clients--and their own careers--to the sudden volatility and price swings that are common to the micro cap market. But it is just that volatility, plus their proven record for outperforming large cap stocks over the long term, that makes micro caps perfect for independent investors looking for market-beating returns.

The Micro Cap Investor takes a behind-the-scenes look at this exciting sector to:
* Detail a market-tested process for uncovering and investing in micro caps with the greatest potential to outperform the market
* Reveal the ten key catalysts that take under-the-radar micro caps and propel them into the public spotlight
* Explain how smaller investors can use the "information advantage" to actually gain a sizable edge over institutional investors


Let The Micro Cap Investor show you how to uncover today's most promising companies, and use the power of micro cap investing to dramatically improve your long-term investment performance.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Are you looking to trade a little security and stability for the opportunity to get in early on the next Microsoft? Study after study reveals that investing in micro cap stocks has generated greater long-term returns than investing in blue chips. Yet because micro caps are by nature more volatile than their blue-chip counterparts, and often trade out of the public eye on the OTC “Pink Sheets,” they are shunned by investment bankers and conservative buy-and-hold investors.

All of this makes the uncharted micro cap wilderness one of the last classic profit opportunities for independent investors.

The Micro Cap Investor gives you everything you need to know to carve out sizable positions in small, yet-to-be-discovered companies, and gain a huge advantage over mainstream analysts accustomed to focusing only on the “General Electrics” of the world. Outlining a detailed investment strategy designed―and proven―to work best in turbulent markets, this results-driven book will show you how to:

• Access little-known, but valuable resources to uncover and research potential micro cap investments
• Adapt fundamental valuation techniques and financial analysis tools to see which micro caps are poised to move up
• Use micro cap stocks to provide a valuable portfolio hedge against the general trends of the market

Micro cap stocks are the classic Catch-22. Because of their small size and relative anonymity, they usually fly under the radar of investment bankers and professional traders. However, these same factors make micro caps ideal for investors looking to leverage limited investment dollars into substantial profits. Let The Micro Cap Investor show you how to exploit the information advantage embedded in micro caps, uncover stocks that stand poised to become “ten-baggers,” and make micro cap investing an integral and profitable component of your overall investment strategy.

Aus dem Klappentext

Wall Street research is often hesitant to focus on small companies. This creates a situation where many small high-quality companies go largely uncovered by Wall Street firms . . .
