FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Penny Stocks?
The Securities and Exchange Commission classifies penny stocks as “low-priced (below $5), speculative securities of very small companies”, and they are traded over the counter (OTC) through quotation services such as the Pink Sheets or the OTC Bulletin Board.

Where Can I Buy Penny Stocks?
Online brokerage firms such as Scottrade®, E-Trade®, TradeStation®, and Speedtrader® will allow you to purchase penny stocks.

Why Should I Invest In Penny Stocks?
Penny Stocks are, in most cases, overlooked by traditional stock brokers who do not follow a specific stock unless it is trading above a predetermined limit (typically around $2.00 – $3.00). Penny Stocks can be securities of small companies with big potential for growth and can, therefore, pay premium returns to those who buy in before the price rises.

Are You Compensated For Issuing Alerts?
We are at times compensated for alerting our members to a certain company. However, we turn down the majority of the companies that approach us and we will only accept compensation from a company that we have researched and believe will provide our members with substantial opportunities for both short-and long-term gains. If we do accept compensation for an alert, as required by the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), we will disclose who paid us, the amount, and the type of payment in our email and/or website disclaimer.
