Penny stocks are not all speculative, and they're not all hidden bargains either! In our 2nd edition of
Walker's Manual of Penny Stocks, we plumb the world of stocks that are priced under $5. As with stocks from any other market segment, penny stocks need to be evaluated using fundamental criteria, and we present the information you need to do just that on 500 of the more than 6,000 stocks that were reviewed for this book. Many of them trade over-the-counter, but not all--we looked across market boundaries at the under fives from NASDAQ as well as a few from the major exchanges. Our book is the first to give you an impartial view of this most misunderstood segment of the stock marketplace.
Every one of the companies has a page devoted to it that includes a summarized description of operations, up to 4 years of financial statements, our comments on operations and financial condition, who to contact for further information about the company and how to make trades in their stock (market makers, broker dealers).
Over 60 pages of indices list, rank and sort 12 categories that range from geographic area to market capitalization to compound earnings growth.
