Major U.S. stock indexes opened slightly lower as investors brace for a significant week of earnings reports, with the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite each experiencing minor declines. Despite the cautious start to the week, opportunities still abound for those looking beyond the high-profile stocks dominating headlines. Though 'penny stocks' might seem like a term from another era, they continue to offer potential value; these smaller or newer companies can provide affordability and growth prospects when backed by strong financials.
