I vehemently disagree with Cramer.

One of the reasons for the huge divergence in performance between small caps and large caps is because the large caps get all the ink and airtime.

If a portfolio manager loves a stock and wants to talk about it, it should not matter what the market cap is. Rather, the solution to the problem would be to educate viewers not to instantly dive in the second someone mentions a stock on CNBC. Anyone who considers themselves "a sophisticated investor" should know better than to shoot first and do the due dilly later.

I for one am sick of every PM on Squawk promoting the same old 10-15 large caps...it is nice to hear about undiscovered gems once in awhile.
