Buying And Investing in Penny Stocks

About Penny Stocks: The stocks that have very low market capitalisation and trades for less than $1 on the ASX are generally considered penny stocks. Penny stocks can offer a huge upside if invested in with vigilance. These stocks are generally considered high risk and high return stocks because of their low price and very less liquidity in the market.

Let’s have a look at two diverse penny stocks listed on the ASX:
