Global markets have been experiencing significant shifts, with U.S. stocks rallying to record highs following a Republican electoral sweep and a Federal Reserve rate cut that has influenced investor sentiment. In this context, penny stocks—often representing smaller or emerging companies—continue to capture attention due to their potential for growth and value. While the term may seem outdated, these stocks can still offer opportunities when backed by strong financials and promising business models.
