What is a Penny Stock
What is a Penny Stock🔥
A penny
stock refers to shares of a company that trade at a very low price —
usually below ₹10 in India or below $5 in the US. These stocks belong to small
or unknown companies that are not well-established in the market. Penny stocks
are often not listed on big stock exchanges like NSE or BSE, and they are
considered high-risk investments because the companies may not have
strong financials or business models.
Example✍️
Imagine a company
called XYZ Textiles Ltd that is
very small and not widely known. Its share price is just ₹6. Since the company
has low profits and not much public information, its shares are considered penny stocks.
An investor buys
1,000 shares of XYZ at ₹6, spending ₹6,000. If the company grows and the share
price increases to ₹20, the investor makes a good profit. But if the company
fails or shuts down, the investor could lose most or all of the money.
