3 Penny Stocks to Watch in the Second Half of November
As we dive further into the second half of November, penny stocks continue to be a popular choice among investors of all types. And, there are several reasons why that is the case. For one, penny stocks provide a high level of money-making potential in a time frame that blue chips often cannot match. For example, if we see a penny stock double from $1 to $2, that would be a major portfolio win. And, we do see jumps like this occur with penny stocks from time to time.

However, it is unlikely to see a $50 stock go to $100 in the same time frame. On the other hand, it’s worth noting that the risk profile with penny stocks tends to be much higher than with any other stocks. This is due to the massive speculation that occurs alongside their low prices. So, the best way to stay ahead when it comes to trading penny stocks is to have a consistent and well thought-out trading strategy.
This should align with both your tolerance for risk and your investing goals. Once this is completed, investors can begin the process of making a penny stocks watchlist. This involves looking at what is going on in the world and understanding how certain events could impact certain stocks. With all of this in mind, let’s take a look at three penny stocks to watch right now.
