Penny stock picks are the top listing stocks among penny stocks. Penny stocks, otherwise known as small cap stocks and micro cap stocks, refer to stocks that are sold for less than one dollar per share.

Penny stocks are not generally listed on major stock exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the American Stock Exchange (AMEX). All penny stocks are traded over-the-counter (OTC) or on the pink sheet. Though risky, penny stocks are popular among speculators. The main advantage of penny stocks is they don't require a huge investment to get started. Sometimes, penny stocks have the ability to turn a small investment into a big fortune. Dilution, equity and market risks, low visibility, low tradability, stock hype, and volatility are some of the major drawbacks of investing in penny stocks.

The assistance of a professional stock broker, information given in penny stock newsletters, or one's own discretion can assist in selecting profitable penny stocks. It is always advisable to trade penny stocks listed on the reputable stock exchanges such as Nasdaq SmallCap and Nasdaq National. Further, investing one?s entire finances in one stock is not advisable.

The financial stability of the company, good trading volume, and strong business plans are also factors to consider with regard to penny stock picks. In addition, an investor should be aware of all possible dangers involved in the investment of penny stocks, particularly in the form of free stock picks. It is, therefore, evident that the more one spends for a newsletter or other related resources, the more likely it will include quality penny stock picks.
