Will,

The big expansion in the numbers of people investing in the stock market has been primarily through purchasing funds. If we go into a more extended bear market, this will likely be where the greatest carnage occurs as many inexperienced investors redeem fund shares and the funds, in turn, have to dump their holdings to raise cash for redemptions.

The small caps are more frequently the domain of individual investors who do at least some analysis of the companies they put their money in, and may represent somewhat stronger hands. I think we may be reaching a point where the relative performance of small caps to big caps swings in favor of the small cap companies. As you point out, bargains and heavily oversold stock is much easier to find among the smaller companies.
