THE BW50
The 2006 Small-Cap 600 Scoreboard
To select the best-performing companies in the Standard & Poor’s Small Cap 600 index, we first ranked all the stock in the index by one- and three-year market performance (as of Feb. 28). We then added the two rankings and came up with our list. When companies have the same total score, we give them equal ranking.
