As I was reading that excel file
yesterday about Market Capitalization, I felt curious about what it meant. I learned that it is the measure of the market
value of the company. It somehow seemed
like the net worth of a person. Market
Capitalization is the total outstanding shares of the company multiplied by the
current market price of the company’s stock.
In trading, Companies are usually categorized into three Large-cap
(First-liners), Mid-cap (Second-liners) and Small-cap (Third-liners). These categories also indicate the volatility
of the stock and its potential for trading.
To summarize:
Market Capitalization

Light-bulb moment: That’s why traders play with third-liners
because that’s where the money is
Here I was still picking my stocks. I thought I cannot find uptrend stocks in a
bear market but I did. I think I thought
I did. Here are the stocks on my watch
list currently
I will still sort them out
tomorrow. GLO should not be there but I
might paper trade that one outside this 90-Day Challenge. I know there are still 2nd liners
and 1st liners on this list and I will weed them out.
