Alan Brochstein stumbled upon the 'Wild West' of the publicly-traded penny stocks in early 2013 and quickly built a large following as he tried to make sense of the sector, which was then a dozen or so companies. Though it has grown to over 350 publicly-traded stocks, the vast majority of the sector remains for trading only. Alan will review the recent history, discuss some of the challenges and point to a handful of potential investment opportunities.
