They say big things come in small packages, but nowhere is that truer than in small stocks. These small companies offer the possibility of big returns, but that often comes at the price of higher volatility. In this week’s episode of Buy Hold Sell, David Allingham from Eley Griffiths Group and Andrew Smith from Perennial Value Management make some big calls on this eclectic group of small caps. Allingham identifies one stock with a history of lumpy earnings that he says has a “material re-rate coming over the coming years” as they transition to a more stable earnings stream. Meanwhile, Smith shares one stock with exposure to a2 milk and manuka honey, which he says “could be the next ALQ.”

In addition, Smith and Allingham each share one small cap that’s caught their attention.
