Reviewed by Simply Wall St
In the current global market landscape, small-cap stocks have shown resilience despite mixed performances across major indices, with smaller-cap indexes outperforming others amid geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties. As the Federal Reserve maintains interest rates and economic indicators present a varied picture, investors are increasingly focused on identifying opportunities within undervalued segments of the market.
