Small caps surge, rising again Tuesday
Small cap stocks are the hottest deals on the stock market right now.
The group’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, rose 1% on Tuesday after hitting its highest close since January 2022 on Monday. If the index rises another 1% on Tuesday, it will mark just the fifth time since 1979 that it has recorded five consecutive days of gains of more than 1%, according to Bespoke Investment Group.
Last week, small-cap stocks took the baton from large technology stocks and led the bull market on hopes that lower interest rates will broaden the economic recovery and favor small caps.
