Hey, I'm Ryan Mallory, and this is my swing trading, the stock market podcast.

I'm here to teach you how to trade in a complex, ever-changing world of finance.

Learn what it means to trade profitably and consistently, managing risk, avoiding the pitfalls of trading,

and most importantly, to let those winners run wild. You can succeed at the stock market,

and I'm ready to show you how. Hey, everybody. This is Ryan Mallory with Swing Trading the Stock

Market. And I've got a good episode for you guys today about the realities of large cap stocks

versus small cap stocks, guy by the name of stocks for tendies on Twitter. He slid into my

mentions and he says, Ryan, you should do a podcast on the disconnect between small caps and the

major indices. Every day we hear about new highs, but small and midcaps have been going down

five to 30% for a month. CNBC acts like the whole market needs a correction. Only big caps do.

Now, a lot to unpack there because the small caps or the Russell 2000 index, it's not

sliding five to 30% a month. I think what he means there is there's a lot of

stocks within the Russell 2000 that are seeing declines from anywhere from 5% to 30% in a single month.

There's no doubt about it. The large caps, particularly the tech stocks, are way outperforming

the small caps. I mean, that's just a matter of fact. There's no denying it.

And when you drill down into it even further, it's a handful of stocks that are really pushing

this market up to new highs on a daily basis, it seems. But first, before I get into that,

what am I drinking? Well, trying this new whiskey out. It's a corn whiskey. It says it doesn't give me much information on it but

it's called baby blue it's made by a company called balconies never had it before never tried it

it's 46% alcohol 92 proof and like i said it says it's a corn whiskey made with blue corn

i don't even know what blue corn is i never even heard of that term before not. Not saying it's not a thing. I'm just saying I've never heard of it. To the nose,

I don't know, it's got some vanilla smells to it, a little sweet, kind of a floral smell. Much better
