welcome to cramerica my job is not just to entertain but to help you make money i admit it this is going to sound hockey, but big business is what drives the market nasdaq declined 1.7% sweet first half, though still, small businesses are everywhere, and the companies that help them do a better job, well, they -- they -- can be fabulously vast. it's not easy to identify these companies, though. when you go to a research house, there is no silo like that major companies don't break down their small business clients, let alone tell you to buy them it doesn't work like that. however, small businesses are incredibly important because they're the enterprises that actually hire people most of the big companies, you know what they're constantly doing? yeah, they're trying to do more with less! i like the rails >> all aboard! >> because they figured out how to move the same cargo with fewer people generally speaking, whenever a firm replaces workers with inexpensive machines, wall street laps it up. but if a small business wants to expand, it needs to hire more people they're the reason the econ
