Can You Guess What Sears, GameStop, Spirit Airlines, Tootsie Roll, and Papa John's All Have in Common?

Think fast: What do Sears Holdings (NASDAQ: SHLD), GameStop (NYSE: GME), Spirit Airlines (NASDAQ: SAVE), Tootsie Roll (NYSE: TR), and Papa John's International (NASDAQ: PZZA) all have in common? And before you submit your guess, being a consumer-facing brand isn't the answer I'm going for.

Did you guess that they're all small companies? If so, that's not correct. While Sears Holdings is a small-cap company because of its long-term downtrend, the remaining four are firmly mid-cap publicly traded companies with a $2 billion or higher valuation.
