Highlights

  • Penny stocks are becoming increasingly popular among investors due to their potential of generating high returns in the volatile market.
  • The risk factor associated with penny stocks increases with the returns.
  • Investors are always advised to conduct a thorough research before investing in penny stocks.

Stocks that generally trad below £1 and have a market capitalisation of less than £100 million are known as penny stocks. These cheap stocks are becoming increasingly popular among investors due to their potential of generating high returns. However, the risk factor associated with such stocks increases with the returns.

Thus, only a certain portion of your investment portfolio should be dedicated to penny stocks, as dealing in penny stocks is risky due to higher price volatility and also because the companies offering penny stocks are generally small and low on quality.

Investors should conduct a thorough research before investing in penny stocks and choose the promising ones with a bright outlook.

Here are 5 UK penny stocks that you can buy amid slowdown and uncertainty in the market.
