Buffett, Lynch, Greenblatt, they all started in microcap for a reason. It's the only place in the public markets where an astute investor managing a small sum has a structural advantage over institutions.

~50% of public companies are microcaps. Many have no research coverage which means you have to do the work. Most institutions can't own them until they are larger and more liquid. Finding great companies early is a strategy that has never gone out of style.

There are ~30,000 microcaps across the world that most institutions can't own until they are larger and more liquid. They can't buy them until they go up. They have to wait until after you find them. Don't invest where the institutions are, invest where they are going to go.

Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, Joel Greenblatt, and many others started their careers in microcap for a reason. It's the only place in the public markets, and maybe even private markets, where an astute investor managing a small sum has a structural advantage over institutions.

The best investors ever compound(ed) their capital at 20% per year over the long-term. They doubled their money every 3 - 4 years. You don't need to swing for the fences. Just keep making the right long-term decisions.

A big misperception is to achieve a multi-bagger you need to invest in a microcap that is addressing a big market. In reality, you just need to find one that over several years can consistently grow revenues and earnings while not diluting you.

Investing with the crowd is always a bad idea, but using the crowd to find ideas and leverage due diligence is a great idea. Whether it is a forum like ours, or others, or forming a close group of investors you consistently share ideas with - do it. You will rise together.

The more illiquid the better.
The less institutionally owned the better.
The more misunderstood the better.

“Microcaps are like three year old children. They can be totally unpredictable. One moment they are cuddling with you on the couch and the next minute they are trying to burn your house down. It’s why you have to watch your microcaps like you watch your small children. Closely.”

Perhaps the most important question to ask yourself and management of a microcap company:
Do they need to raise capital to execute their plan?
A microcap investor’s biggest risk is dilution.

You find the best opportunities when markets drop quickly - when most investors are too startled to do what they know they should. They loved it 100-200-300% higher but can't buy it here even though nothing has changed with the business. This is the long-term opportunity.

The greatest advantage a microcap investor has is the rest of the financial world thinks you’re an idiot for investing in “penny stocks” and that you don’t think deeply about your investing process. Prove them wrong.

Unlike private equity where you have to be wealthy and well-connected to gain access – microcap is the opposite. Institutional capital can’t invest in microcap companies because they are too illiquid. Microcap is where small intelligent investors have a structural advantage.

"I love earnings season!"

"Quarterly reporting promotes short-term thinking. They should change the rules so companies only report once per year."

The beauty of illiquid microcaps is tens of thousands of dollars in volume can move millions of dollars of market cap. A great business with a great share structure is a beautiful thing when it gets discovered by institutions.

Microcap is a good place to invest and learn because you are forced to do your own work and live with the consequences of your decisions. You learn quicker because you have no one else to blame.

The same structural advantages that existed 50 years ago in the microcap space still exist today. Larger money can’t buy these companies until they are larger and more liquid. This is an incredible advantage for the astute investor managing smaller amounts of capital.
