They've also proven to be among the most attractive investments after a financial downturn.

This is particularly important for investors who have experienced losses in their portfolios, and are looking to grow their portfolios in the coming years. Many of today's top large-cap companies from Microsoft to Wal-Mart all started out small and grew to become dominant forces in their respective industries. Investors who bought these great companies early on profited handsomely.
