Post says Patient Home shows risk of owning small caps 2015-08-17 05:55 PT - In the News The Financial Post reports in its Saturday edition small-cap stocks have really taken it on the chin these past few months and the past week has certainly been horrible with big declines across the board. Post columnist Peter Hodson writes small caps are volatile. Volatility does not by itself make small caps bad, but investors need to separate market swings from fundamentals. Company prospects do not change that much on a weekly basis, but stock prices can. You cannot ignore price movements, but do not read too much into them, either. Mr. Hodson adds that small caps are notoriously bad communicators. For instance, Patient Home Monitoring recently lost close to $200-million in market cap on something that could have been largely prevented with a simple $500 press release. Insiders had sold and transferred a massive amount of shares to a specialized health-care fund, but investors only saw insider selling and panicked when there was no word from the company. Days too late, and after a big decline, a conference call with investors did little to clear up the issue. The strategy with small caps is that your winners far outweigh your losers: You really only need one or two multibaggers to boost your portfolio. © 2015 Canjex Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved.

Acton, you dont even know what im talking about. Im not talking about microcap picks here. Kidl helped few times in the past few years with few different stocks by pointing out possible red flags and i bailed and saved some money. That's all. I dont always follow. But thanks to him i can make better educated decisions. So someone ask me a question. I honestly answer. You take out of it what you want and what i didn't talk about so you can argue. Sigh! Acton, dont even address to me any more, please. You guys are just miserable....
