VB: I Was Bullish On Small Caps A Year Ago, And I Still Am Today
VB delivered a 28% return last year, offering diversification, though it slightly underperformed the S&P 500. I maintain a "buy" rating for VB, seeing a favorable environment for small US stocks as we move into Q4. I believe small-cap stocks can continue to deliver positive returns because they will benefit from lower interest rates and often perform well post-US presidential elections.
