Global markets have recently seen a positive shift, with U.S. indexes approaching record highs and smaller-cap indexes outperforming their larger counterparts, despite geopolitical tensions and policy uncertainties. Penny stocks, while often associated with speculative ventures, can still offer unique opportunities for growth when backed by strong financials. These stocks represent smaller or newer companies that may provide underappreciated growth potential at lower price points, especially when they boast solid balance sheets and fundamentals.
