Sinking Ships - When a stock has dropped a lot you may think that, "it can’t go any lower," or that it is "a good bargain." Especially with penny stocks, you need to avoid this type of thinking because many sinking ships don’t ever rebound, and they can go lower, and they aren’t good bargains just because they cost less than before.
Commission Free - If you are interested in getting stock commission free you may think you are saving money, but it generally means that you are buying over
counter stock directly from a promoter or
company. Either way, they take their own invisible ‘commission’ from you, either by selling to you for an arbitrary amount which is unfairly high, or selling to you for
asking price rather than
bid price based on their own current valuations.
International Penny Stock - We’re not talking about living in
U.S. and steering clear of Canadian stock, or vice versa. We are talking about penny stock issues from Africa, Australia, European, Russian, or South American penny stock markets. First of all, you won’t be too impressed with
level of investor protection and exchange honesty in some of these regions, and you most certainly won’t be too impressed with
broker fees you incur when trying to purchase internationally. Besides, if you can’t find good penny stock investments in North America, you won’t be able to find them anywhere else either.
Warrants and Rights - These are not technically stocks, but instead are derivative investments based on an underlying company's shares. However, they often appear like penny stocks because they sometimes get listed in
stock pages, and often trade for pennies. It is unlikely that you will accidentally purchase derivatives, but make sure you know what you are trying to buy by understanding
listing criteria of
paper you are reading, or verifying your purchase with your broker.
