Global markets have been experiencing a notable rally, with U.S. stocks reaching record highs amid expectations of growth and tax reforms following the recent election results. As investors navigate these shifting economic landscapes, the allure of penny stocks remains significant due to their affordability and potential for substantial returns. Though often perceived as relics from past market eras, penny stocks continue to offer opportunities in smaller or newer companies that might pair financial strength with promising growth trajectories.
