That's why we follow the top penny stocks trading today. They have the opportunity to bring investors triple-digit gains in a very short period of time.
Penny stocks are defined as stocks trading under $5. But at Money Morning, we focus on penny stocks listed on major exchanges like the NYSE and Nasdaq. That's because they carry much less risk than penny stocks that trade over-the-counter or on the Pink Sheets.

That's why Money Morning experts advise that penny stocks should only represent a small percentage of any portfolio. One stock should never account for more than 2% of your investing capital.
