What small cap index was used? Those small cap indices can have more biased shakeups as more companies go bankrupt there and are removed from the index...therefor the return on the same companies-sectors is NOT real. That being said I am still very bullish on small caps in the next year or two as it is easier to grow a $1mil company in this environment than a $1bil company. I use the research at http://www.microcapreports.com/ FInviz and elsewhere to find the right small cap investments.
