           ►   Many mid-caps have higher cash flows and earnings
              growth compared with large-cap companies



           Mid-cap stocks are sometimes left out of the discussion as
        people try to decide between investing in large- or small-caps.

        Mid-cap stocks comprise about 25% of domestic stocks, but,
        according to Morningstar, only 15% of mutual fund assets are

        invested in mid-cap stock funds. Mid-caps outperformed both
        large-cap and small-cap  stocks  from 1992  to  2017, and also

        performed better than the other stock classifications in most of
        the rolling periods within this 25-year span.




        Small-Cap Stock Benefits:



           ►   Greater potential for growth


           ►   Lower stock price allows you to buy more shares

           ►   Greater chance to diversify holdings, due to lower stock
              price


           When it comes to return and growth potential, mid-cap stocks

        have the advantage over both large-cap stocks and small-cap
        stocks.
