1. What are Penny Stocks?

According to the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), a 'penny stock" refers to "low-priced (below $5), speculative securities of very small companies." A penny stock is traded over the counter (OTC) through quotation services such as the OTC Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets.

2. Where can I buy Penny Stocks?

Most online brokerage firms will allow you to purchase penny stocks. Some examples would be Speedtrader®, TD Ameritrade®, Scottrade® and E-Trade®.

3. Why invest in Penny Stocks?

Penny stocks can be shares of small companies that have great potential but are not followed by traditional stock brokers. In many cases, traditional brokers will not follow a stock unless it trades above a certain threshold, usually around $3. These low priced penny stock shares can reward investors who get in early with very substantial returns.

6. What kind of Penny Stocks will you alert me to?

We alert our subscribers to penny stock companies, listed on the OTCBB and AMEX, that we believe have both short- and long-term potential. Some of the things we look for in companies are: an experienced and proven management team, products and/or services with great potential, growth sector, existing clients or contracts, proven track record and more… (Note: We typically do not release picks on pink sheet companies due to the lack of readily available information.)

7. Are you compensated for issuing alerts?

We are at times compensated for alerting our members to a certain company. However, we turn down the majority of the companies that approach us and we will only accept compensation from a company that we have researched and believe will provide our members with substantial opportunities for both short- and long-term gains. If we do accept compensation for an alert, as required by the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), we will disclose who paid us, the amount, and the type of payment in our email and website disclaimer.
