A seasoned investor since 2009, David explains why he remains committed to the space despite its volatility—and why it could be a hidden opportunity for patient investors.He unpacks the regulatory and structural shifts that have drained capital from small caps, from tighter advisor rules to the rise of private equity, and explains how this has created a contrarian edge.David also answers viewer questions on Thinkific (THNC), DentalCorp (DNTL), MDA Space (MDA), and Tantalus Systems (GRID), breaking down how each fits into his investment framework and what the market may be missing.And of course, no episode would be complete without David’s Pro Picks — his top small cap stocks to watch right now. He spotlights Kraken Robotics (PNG), a company that went from treasure hunting tech to supplying sonar and underwater batteries for military and energy sectors; Dye & Durham (DND), a legal software firm caught in corporate drama but still generating serious free cash flow; and TerraVest (TVK), an under-the-radar industrial that’s grown into one of Canada’s best-performing stocks — and may still have room to double again.Whether you're a small cap believer or just looking for smart investing ideas off the beaten path, this episode is packed with insights and analysis.Timestamps00:00 Show intro01:50 Amber & David Barr discuss the challenging environment for small-caps03:25 What’s the secret sauce of small-cap investing?07:20 Why is the small-cap sector so starved?10:00 Is there opportunity because there are so few small-cap investors?
