All-Cap Fund

  

A mutual fund that GETS REAL LOUD!!! on Twitter.

Actually, it's a fund that doesn't discriminate based on company size. You can generally tell the size of a public company by a figure known as market capitalization, or market cap. This figure sums up the total value of all the stock the company has outstanding. Basically, it's the amount you'd have to pay to buy up all the publicly available stock at current prices.

Market cap represents one way potential investors, like mutual funds...group companies. Some funds specialize in particular sizes, like large cap (big companies) or micro cap (little companies). All-cap funds look to make investments in companies of every size. Think "all market capitalizations." Like...from $250 million to Apple, kissing a trillion. With tongue.
