Interesting point. As an example of the variation between stock market indices:

From January 1999 through 7/2/06, the S&P 500 was only up about 3%, while the Russell 2000 small cap index was up about 70% over the same time period.

It will also be interesting to see how CAPS ratings are affected if/when dividends are included.
