Some companies become penny stocks by listing on over-the-counter markets to raise capital. Others start with a higher price but eventually drop down to penny stock levels. Investing in these stocks can be slightly safer than investing in a brand new company, as long as the reason for the stock’s decline is reversible.
Investors can look for opportunities to buy these stocks at a discount while still holding onto the potential of the company. However, success stories like these are rare. It’s important to consider the financial performance of penny stocks before investing, as the risk is high. Only invest money that you are willing to lose.
