most investors interested in penny stocks because they offer high in volatility which enough for them to make quick bucks in just an hour.
if you solely depend on volatility, then you take high unnecessary risk. reason is volatility is sentiment driven and nothing can point you the exact reason to what drive its fluctuations.
however, not all penny stocks are the same. it is better for you to concentrate on penny stock with real business. worst case, it won't go bankrupt at short notice. |

No. The risks are that you lose all your money. If you want to have one or two as a part of a portfolio (no more than 20% IMO) than that is different. But any money you invest in penny shares you should be prepared to lose. |

It truly depends on the stock.
We held 200 dollars worth of Alph Bio Medical (now merged into something else) - hubby sold it - had we held it we'd be millionaires a few times over.
Not all pennystocks are like that. This was a viable company with a good product and an owner who was mortgaging his house up the yin yang to stay in business. |

the London Market is better regulated in this penny garbage than in the US however I will NEVER endorse any penny stock. They are penny stocks for a reason they are NOT worth it. |

Usually very risky, and only ever invest on the basis that you might lose the lot and end up with a worthless piece of paper - it's happened to me more than once! Many companies in penny share guides are at best no better than if you put money on a horse. |

The share price doesn't matter, if it scores well on p/e and p/tbv and has a tenable business plan with competent management and reliable auditors then buy it weather it costs 10p of £10. |

NO risk involved. Its a guaranteed loser.
Cut the commission. Just flush your money straight down the toilet... |

Risks outweight the benefits, 99.9 percent are scams. |

Provided that you can afford to lose the money it can actually be worth doing and a great deal of fun.
Many years ago (when penny shares were shown on teletext) I bought shares in Ratners, the Jewellers. They cost me 10.5p each. I sold about eight months later at .37.5 each. The did go up to .40 a day later - but after that they went back down to .90p. It was fun and like having a bet on a long horse race! I made about £400 - which paid for my car insurance for that year!
All you have to do is keep watching what they are doing and don't get too greedy - and also watch other penny shares that you are interested - I should have sold mine at less than I did and invest in some different ones. I could have bought for .07p and when I sold the Ratners (by then, Signature), they were worth .97p each!
Go for it - but make sure that you can afford to lose it first!
Good luck! |

Analysts are often wrong when talking shares up, but seldom wrong when talking them down.
They are cheap for a good reason. |

You buy 100 shares you lose £1
You buy 1000 shares you lose £10.00
You buy 10,000 you lose £100.
There you go hun. There's the risk. No need to go any deeper into any deal than the bid.
Good luck. Hope you make a bundle! xxxx |
