SmallCapWorld is a blog from Allen & Caron Inc.  Our intention is to bring to our audience comments, news and views that will help people navigate the increasingly difficult small cap stock market in the US.  We will not be making recommendations, nor advising people on how to invest — just pointing out the fingerposts that we think will help people find their own ways.  We are an investor relations firm, and we will mark any clients we mention with an asterisk (*).
