Amid a week marked by busy earnings reports and mixed economic signals, global markets have seen fluctuations, with major indices like the Nasdaq Composite and S&P MidCap 400 experiencing highs before retreating. In such a volatile landscape, investors often look beyond large-cap stocks for opportunities that may offer growth potential at more accessible price points. Penny stocks, though an older term, continue to attract attention for their potential as they often represent smaller or newer companies with the possibility of significant upside when backed by strong financials.
