As the Canadian market navigates a period of economic adjustment, with inflation rising to 2.6% in February due to tax changes, investors are keeping a close watch on interest rate policies and their implications for growth. Penny stocks, often associated with smaller or newer companies, remain an intriguing investment area despite being considered somewhat niche today. With strong financials as a key criterion, these stocks can offer unique opportunities for those looking beyond larger firms for potential growth and value.
