21st Century Alert Low-Priced Stocks
From time to time, recommendations for stocks priced
under $12 will appear in a 21st Century Alert "Update".
These recommendations can be companies experiencing growing
revenue and narrowing losses, or possibly a swing to profit.
They can be former high-flyers in a (temporary) slump; low-
priced, high-yielding dividend plays or development-stage
tech companies with no earnings but a promising product.
Initial stop prices are set at roughly 15% to 20%. (One
reason to keep low-priced stocks in a separate portfolio is
that a small dollar move can register as a large percentage
move, significantly skewing results.)
There's a lot to be
said for stocks priced under $12: Caught on an upswing,
they can quickly give double-digit returns. Buying them
doesn't take too much of your cash reserves. If they hit
their initial stop price you don't lose much. And you can
buy 200 or 300 shares of a low-priced stock for the same
amount you'd pay for 100 shares of a higher-priced stock.
The Entry Date in the Portfolio indicates the date on which
the stock was recommended; check the "Update" Archives to
read about a particular recommendation. Recommendations are
followed and stop prices adjusted in the "Update," and the
Portfolio can be accessed by clicking on the link at the
bottom of the "Update" page.
