3 Small-Cap Stocks With Big-Cap Potential

If you want big growth from your investments, you have to smart small. That might sound contradictory since most small-cap stocks will never make it to the blue chip level, but small-cap stocks, generally defined as having a market cap between $300 million and $2 billion, give investors the greatest opportunity for the kind of huge, exponential returns that could truly change your life. We're talking gains of 500%, 1,000%, or even 5,000% here. A company that's already worth hundreds of billions of dollars simply can't do that. It's already so big that even doubling in value would be remarkable.

To get a peek at some small-cap stocks with big-cap potential, keep reading to see why these three Motley Fool contributors think LendingClub (NYSE: LC), Intercept Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ICPT), and Stitch Fix (NASDAQ: SFIX) could deliver for you.
