3 Small Caps With Big Upside

Today, Kate’s guest is Randy Baron, portfolio manager at Pinnacle Associates. The three stocks Randy discusses today have small market capitalizations. In a market pullback, small stocks get hit first but are also the ones that do best in a new rally.

-Amyris is in the synthetic biology space. -How Amyris is leveraging the consumer business to attract enterprise customers to license the technologies -Its consumer products are based upon a molecule called hemisqualene -Why Randy believes Amyris could double revenue beyond what analysts are expecting and why he sees the stock price rising in the next 18 months to two years -What value Randy sees in a small U.K.-based healthcare stock called Renalytix that addresses the issue of chronic disease -The biggest companies in the dialysis space are DaVita (DVA) and Fresenius (FMS), but Renalytix offers another approach to treating kidney disease before the late stages -Why Randy sees potential in another small British company, WANdisco, which is available over the counter to U.S. investors -WANdisco owns the algorithm that allows live data migration to the cloud -This algorithm can be used by big end users globally, including Microsoft, Google or Alibaba. -In May, WANdisco announced the largest contract in the history of the company. The stock began a big move. -Why Randy says consensus estimates for WANdisco revenue is too low -Why Randy believes being listed in the U.K. has impeded WANdisco’s ability to grow
