Ben Griffiths: A bull waiting for these three signs to charge at small caps

The Rules of Investing

Global markets are in a world of hurt. This week the Dow Jones Industrial Average nose-dived 1,100 points - its biggest loss since 2020. For all but those with the greatest of risk appetites, it's time to hunker down and weather the volatility storm.

But the rout won't last forever. As the saying goes, the night is darkest just before the dawn. So being ready for the turn will be key to capturing the growth to come.

For today's episode of Rules of Investing, we're joined by small cap notary Ben Griffiths, Managing Director and Senior Portfolio Manager at Eley Griffiths Group. Ben is a notary of sorts in the Australian small cap space, having co-founded Eley Griffiths Group back in 2002 with Brian Eley following a successful career as joint head of small companies at both BT Financial Group and ING Investment Management.

Ben discusses the mess markets are in today, and the three signs he's waiting for to know when it's time to start buying. We also take a deep dive into small cap resources - a sector that can't, and shouldn't, be ignored when investing in small caps.
