PensionCraft's video: Best Small Cap Funds

Small cap stocks tend to outperform the broad market over the long term. However, during crisis periods and recessions, they also tend to crash more. What makes small caps attractive right now is that they have a low valuation relative to the rest of the US market. So in this video, I discuss the differences between small cap indices and also show you the cheapest UK and US funds that track them. I also examine how small cap funds have outperformed in the past and explain what risks you need to look out for.
