In 2011, large and very large companies that showed steady profits and returned a nice wad of cash to shareholders fared well amid a choppy market. Many stocks with such traits rallied in big volume Tuesday. So, how big is a big-cap stock? Ask that question to several mutual fund managers, and you might get slightly different answers. So a look at the S&P 500 benchmark of large-cap names may be helpful.
The average market capitalization in the S&P 500 is currently $24.8 billion. Twenty-four are valued at $100 billion or more. Consider these: Microsoft (MSFT), Monsanto (MON), BlackRock (BLK) and Qualcomm (QCOM).
