The mention of penny stocks often instill thoughts of instant riches or gain in the ears of newbie investors. In other investors, it brings about fear and pessimism. Either way, penny stocks have more depth now than ever before, due in part to the fast-flow of information in the internet age, and the ability for traders to easily trade securities of these nature.
Penny
stocks (or MicroCap stocks) are defined as stock's whose share
price are below $5.00, and usually appear on the Over-The-Counter
Bulletin Board (OTC BB)
or Pink
Sheets Exchanges. There are other exchanges as
well, but most experienced investors decide to play on either
of these two when they first are getting started with investing.
The main difference between the Pink Sheets and the OTCBB, is simply that .PK (Pink Sheets) stocks do not need to report to the SEC any company information, whereas OTCBB stocks are real companies, with full reporting and disclosing to the SEC and other agencies.
