Penny stocks are pretty wretched for the most part. Full of shattered dreams and wasted capital.

@Danny – I must say that you are the one that sounds like an amateur. There is a lot more to a successful company that advertising and sales and there are about a million ways to go wrong. From my experience the most likely scenario for your stock is to have to sell more shares to ‘expand and grow or to cover debts’ which will further dilute the share price not increase it despite growing sales.

@Danny – Feel free to call me amateur for having a different view than yours about Penny Stocks. By the way, did you even read my post? I said nothing about it being good or bad. I am just using it as an example on how to evaluate stock value.

Only amateurs would post the above statements. Look at Sponge tech for a great penny stock that is exploding. With commercials on tv, advertising in Baseball stadiums, and a spot on the Home Shopping network, all bases are covered in advertising. Oh, they had more sales last month than the whole previous year. No wonder my money doubled.

If you pick a product that has great advertising and great sales, how can you go wrong?

@Writer’s Coin – Nice article. I guess the misconception about cheap stock doesn’t bother me as much.

@MLR – Thank you for your help on Tip’d. Good point about doubling.

@Doctor S – Hmm…Worldcom…what’s that?

@SJ – I tried single ply toilet paper. Not very nice.

Nah penny stocks are cheap. You just aren’t getting much for your value (sometimes)…

It’s like buying really cheap singly ply toilet paper.

One thing to note is that usually the pricing can be manipulated more easily due to less peeps buying/selling resulting in higher volatility in price… which can be good or bad =)

Thanks for identifying the basics on something I had no idea about. Its funny, back when I was in hs, my friends and I were thinking the same thing that @MLR was saying…. we wanted to be tons of stock in Worldcom b/c it was only $0.01. We told ourselves “All we need is for it to go up a few cents and we are set!” Hahahah naive youth days for me!
