International Small Caps Poised For Growth: (VISAX)

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: To most people, stocks of small companies based outside the U.S. are little more than an afterthought. Their coverage by investment banking analysts is minimal, despite the fact that they make up an enormous investable universe of almost 20,000 companies, while the domestic small-cap universe comprises only about 3,000. Most indexes don’t contain international small caps, and most investors don’t own them.
Regards,
Ted

    Good-er. VISAX is BLEND, PRIDX is GROWTH. I can also recommend the latter. (TRP.)
  • Sven
    PRIDX is closed to new investors.
  • CrashCrash
    ouch. Apologies. Forgot.
  • BenWPBenWP
    M* has a laudatory profile of PRIDX out today. I have always tried to avoid small-cap funds, foreign or domestic, whose assets exceed a couple of $B. This fund is a rule breaker, clocking more than $9B. Coulda, woulda, shoulda.
