We're back, baby! For the first episode of Buy Hold Sell for 2023, we're taking a look at Livewire readers' favourite small-caps stocks for the year ahead... And what a list it is. 

Think a rare earth miner which boasts Australia's richest billionaire as a major investor, a tech darling that has taken a painful dive from its highs, and a stock next in line for the lithium throne. 

There's also the only true copper play on the ASX after BHP and OZ Minerals' $9.6 billion deal, and, of course, another lithium hopeful because, as this anonymous writer has penned before, if there is one thing Livewire readers love more than dividends and long-term compounders (and don't forget long-term compounders with growing dividends), it's lithium stocks.

In this episode, Livewire's Ally Selby was joined by Marcus Today's Henry Jennings and Medallion Financial's Michael Wayne for their analysis of these tantalising small-cap stocks. 

And just in case they were not a fan of readers' top picks, we also asked them to name the small cap they believe should have made the top five instead.
