  + stars: | 2023-08-26 | by ( Theron Mohamed | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Taylor Swift's Eras Tour had a significant impact on several public companies this summer. "Knowing how our guests can't get enough of Taylor Swift, we proactively secured an exclusive vinyl offering that Swifties bought in droves." "In July, Taylor Swift launched her Eras Tour merch shop with us experiencing unprecedented volume sales and site visitors on launch day, and we were ready for it." "Folks aren't buying as much patio furniture when they're spending hundreds or thousands of dollars to go to Taylor Swift. Rolling Stones, U2, Madonna, Prince, and this Taylor Swift performance was at a whole different level.

"A regime change, if you will, is taking place in the market, where small caps are going to do better," said Francis Gannon, co-chief investment officer at Royce Investment Partners, which focuses on small caps. Now investors are pointing to the recent rally as proof that small caps are on the verge of a prolonged period of outperformance. 'Massively outperform' Michael Sesser, equity portfolio manager of the $558-million DWS Small Cap Core fund, believes small caps will "massively outperform" large caps over the next five to 10 years. Cantaloupe , a retail service digital payments company with a $373 million market cap, and medical imaging provider RadNet ($1.2 billion market cap) are among Sesser's picks. DWS Small Cap also owns metallurgical coal producers serving the steel industry, namely Alpha Metallurgical Resources ($2.7 billion market cap), Arch Resources ($2.6 billion market cap) and Peabody Energy ($4.2 billion market cap).

Schmitt said spot rates are down and that "transactional softness" will remain, but contract will continue to be strong. "But I expect more normal ... closer to pre-pandemic with this year Lunar New Year, but we're not there yet," Schmitt said.
