The Russell 2000 Breaks 1,000

Yesterday, the Russell 2000 index broke 1,000 for the first time ever. The index has a chance to close over that mark today.

While large-cap stocks have had a hard time over the last several years, small-caps have done quite well. Consider this: if the S&P 500 had kept pace with the Russell 2000 over the last 14 years, it would be over 3,200 today.
