Penny stocks are alluring equities because of their boom or bust nature and quick shifting share prices, but they are among the most risky trades an investor can make. The “penny stock” equity class is also at risk of manipulation since the share market caps and trading volume are typically much lower than stocks in the Russell 2000 small cap index and much lower than the S&P 500 constituents.
However, its important to keep an eye open for a potential breakthrough that could compound to serious gains.
Key Points:
- Penny stocks are risky but can produce significant gains.
- Sharp price movements without news could be a sign of a few players buying or selling large chunks of stock.
- If you’re looking for low-cost stocks to buy now and make significant profits later, stop your search. Check out our free, new Discover “The Next NVIDIA” report to learn about two low-cost stocks that could grow by 10x or more ahead!
