small cap

Lowercase-sized uppercase letter

Small cap refers to companies with relatively low market capitalization—typically between $300 million and $2 billion.

Small-cap stocks are considered riskier but potentially higher-growth investments than large caps: Small caps outperformed during the recovery.

In typography, small caps are capital letters rendered at the height of lowercase letters, used for acronyms or stylistic emphasis.
