so small stocks were up "only" 14.5% over the last 5 years. they must be a complete bargain after outperforming large caps this year as well.

Size Matters
by Michael Peltz September 2001, Worth magazine

The stocks of smaller companies lost favor in what one analyst calls the cult of the large cap.
But now they're making a comeback.

From 1995 to 2000, however, the pattern failed to hold. Small-company stocks were handily beaten by large companies, 21.3 to 14.5 percent. It was a period that Brinson U.S. Small Cap Growth Fund co-manager Paul Graham calls the cult of the large-cap growth company.
................................................................................................................................
Those days now appear over. For the first six months of this year, the Russell 2000 was the only major U.S. stock index to show a positive result. It rose 6.1 percent, while the large-cap SP 500 fell 7.3 percent and the tech-laden Nasdaq Composite dropped 12.6 percent. Small-cap value managers such as CRM's Scher did even better. His fund was up 24 percent for the six months.

Stocks with market capitalizations ranging from $100 million to $1.5 billion should continue to outshine. The Russell 2000 is still significantly cheaper than the large-cap Russell 1000 Index using standard valuation metrics such as price to sales, price to book value, and price to earnings
