The big rally in small caps has the Russell 2000 easily outpacing the S&P 500 this year. While large-cap tech titans dominate the headlines, small companies have been quietly making noise with investors who have already caught on to the trend.

For nearly two decades, the playbook for U.S. investors was simple: Buy domestic tech and enjoy the ride. However, the conversation has shifted toward a long-overdue resurgence of international investing.

International equities were a very strong segment for investors last year. Foreign firms in Europe, Asia, South America and Africa helped lift portfolios for investors.

Large cap dominance was the highlight of the 2023 market rally, but small cap equities could pick up where their large cap counterparts left off for the remainder of 2024.
