Where Has the Small-Stock Premium Gone?

The authors compare the recent performance of various equity market capitalization-size groups. They place the underperformance of smaller stocks in a historical context and explore the cyclical nature of small-stock return premiums in an attempt to account for the historical, as well as the potential, underperformance. In the process, they address various arguments against expectations of superior small-stock returns.
