Member Avatar cbaines2 (46.58) Submitted: 6/13/2008 12:02:05 AM : Outperform Start Price: $47.27 IWC Score: -5.03

IWC invests in the 1400 most academically risky stocks around - microcaps. The 3-Factor model of the University of Chicago's Eugene Fama and Dartmouth's Ken French says that over the long term microcaps should outperform large caps as compensation for risk.

Smaller companies are riskier, thereof investors discount their cash-flows to reflect that risk.
