Small companies are not small. Most have hundreds to thousands of employees. They are only small compared to the s&p 500 firms
Maybe you should pull it now before the market heads to the bottoms.
Have you not heard the saying,”Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.”
The newest thing is 'Rent a Casket'... They can cost between $2,000 and $20,000 and can be rented for as little as a thousand bucks... the dead person won't notice only the 'pine box' is going in the ground....
When I say “small companies” I’m thinking more of the small-cap companies within the Russell 200 index. Do most of those have hundreds to thousands of employees?
“Maybe you should pull it now before the market heads to the bottoms.”
It always comes back. I have trust in the US system for now.
I still remember folks telling me the markets would never recover in our lifetimes in 1987, 1999 and 2008
Where else you going to put it? Cd’s pay 1/2 percent.
Yes, Russell 2k firms average enterprise value is over $ 3 billion. Truly small companies are not listed / traded. My firm was a R2k company until June and we have 6k employees with a total EV of $6B and we were right in the middle
Put another way, there are 6 million companies in the US. Russell 2K firms are among the largest 3k in the country out of those 6 million
