Prudent Small Cap Service
Small Caps across industry groups up to
around $4 billion market cap
Small Cap Model Portfolio
The Prudent Small Cap (formerly Graycell Small Cap) model portfolio focuses on the universe of stocks from $200 million to up to around $4 billion in market capitalization. The investment focus is to participate in the early growth stages of a company while diversifying sufficiently across industries and the market cap range that includes small cap stocks (up to $3 billion) and early stage midcap companies, known as SMIDs (small midcaps). The return objective of the quantitative model-driven portfolio is to outperform the Russell 2000 over a 12-month period. Over its long history, the model portfolio performance has surpassed its objective quite convincingly in most years. The portfolio comprises up to 10 stocks that are about equally-weighted. The model portfolio was first published in 2003 as a weekly service and published for 7-years till 2009. It was then resumed from 2012 to 2015. Since 2016 the model portfolio is offered as a monthly newsletter service.
The Enduring Power of Small Cap Stocks

The Power of Compounding
Growth of a Single Dollar
Financial instruments inevitably rise over time. Even inflation creeps higher.
Since 1926, a period of about 100 years, small cap stocks have materially outperformed the large caps.
If economic conditions are sound, small caps generally outperform due to a higher risk-reward.
One can observe the power of compounding in the chart above.
Even a mere 2% differential in compounded return can lead to an exponential difference in $ returns,

Focus
Small caps are generally defined as stocks with a market capitalization (market cap) between $200 million and $3 billion. Such stocks are typically riskier than larger-cap stocks. The risks to small cap companies include less liquidity (lower volume of shares traded), less research-coverage compared to larger cap peers, greater sensitivity to unconfirmed market rumors or hearsay, less institutional sponsorship, and relatively limited access to financing options. However, the greatest opportunities for capital appreciation also lie in the small cap and early stage midcap stocks, principally because of their undiscovered nature. The key is to manage down the risk, since it cannot be eliminated, and find a blend of risk and reward that optimizes the risk-adjusted returns. We believe a wider market cap range that includes the relatively more stable SMID or smaller midcap companies can also contribute towards managing down risk and enhancing risk-adjusted returns. Consequently, the Graycell Small Cap Model Portfolio has a targeted market cap range of $200 million to around $4 billion.
The focus for the model portfolio is on generating consistent and strong benchmark-beating returns. This is achieved through a highly disciplined approach to investing combining a number of aspects including market direction analysis, rules-driven quantitative modeling using fundamental and technical variables, and being process-oriented. Overlaid on this investing approach is our belief in the Power of Compounding. Strong consistent returns boosted by compounding over the long-term can unleash tremendous portfolio growth over time.
Investors must use the enduring power of the markets and the magic of compounding to build long term wealth.

Testimonials
I had read your work on Seeking Alpha and subscribed to the Prudent Biotech and the Graycell Small Cap newsletters. Since 2017, it has worked out fabulously. 2022 has been an up-and-down year so far, but I believe staying the course is important. Thanks for the service and you've earned my renewals.

It's great. I started the Biotech and Smallcap services a few years ago and then added Healthcare when it came out. Never looked back. I am happy and being a broker, my clients are satisfied too.
