Penny stocks have a horrible reputation for the most part and it’s not necessarily undeserved. Too many times, charlatans hawk their junk securities, often in the over-the-counter market where regulations are far less stringent than in actual exchanges. However, you can occasionally find diamonds in the rough.
Don’t misread this: investing in penny stocks always carries significant risks over well-recognized entities featuring established businesses. At the same time, investors today have thousands upon thousands of publicly traded enterprises to consider. It’s just not possible for individual market participants to research every idea. Some names simply fly under the radar. Plus, not all speculative enterprises are built the same. If you have some loose change lying around, these penny stocks with strong financials could be worthwhile.
