Steven Cress - Seeking Alpha | Small caps and AI
Have you ever considered the difference between small cap and large cap stocks? Small cap stocks are catching the attention of investors for a very good reason. Steven Cress, the head of quantitative strategies at Seeking Alpha, joined me on the podcast to shed some light on the smaller end of the market.
"One of the reasons why I find some of the small caps interesting is actually they have traded off so significantly compared to the large cap counterpart."
