I have clients who tell me,it is better to buy a penny stock than a blue chip because it is CHEAPER.
Example you have $1000 to invest.
The penny stock you have been eyeing cost $0.10 each.
…. and another one, a blue chip cost $50 each.
With $1000, you can buy 10,000 penny stocks.
With $1000, you can buy ONLY 20 blue chips.
So their rationale is its better to buy penny stocks, because it is CHEAP and you can buy more because of that.
Blue chips are too EXPENSIVE.
So….Which is better, blue chip or penny stock?
The holistic truth is that the price of the shares DOES NOT matter.
What really matters is the potential percentage increase in the price, which depends on variables like
-the profits that the company makes
-market sentiments of the development of the company etc2.
Lets assume the above example again.
Assuming both companies are equally strong and enjoy 20% increase in price.
The total value of the PENNY STOCKS will increase to (10,000 X $0.12) =$1200
whereas the total value of the BLUE CHIPS will also increase to (20 X $60) = $1200
So you see… The price of the stocks doesnt makes the difference.
Both investments make the profit! 🙂
