Large cap stocks are stocks of companies which have large market capitalizations, typically over $10 billion. They tend to be very established in their line(s) of business and highly diversified in their operations.
Market cap -- or market capitalization -- refers to the total value of all a company's shares of stock. It is calculated by multiplying the price of a stock by its total number of outstanding shares. For example, a company with 20 million shares selling at $50 a share would have a market cap of $1 billion.
