Penny Stocks 101
The terms "penny stocks" and "micro-cap stocks" can be used interchangeably. Technically, micro-cap stocks are classified as such based on their market capitalizations, while penny stocks are looked at in terms of their price. Definitions vary, but in general, a stock with a market capitalization between $50 and $300 million is a micro cap. (Less than $50 million is a nano-cap.) According to the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC), any stock under $5 is a penny stock. Again, definitions can vary; some set the cut-off point at $3, while others consider only those stocks trading at less than $1 to be a penny stock. We consider any stock that is trading on the pink sheets or over-the-counter bulletin board (OTCBB) to be a penny stock.
