This is the first article from my new series, MTG Questions.

Insider: Penny Stock Picks with Kelly https://www.quietspeculation.com/2012/04/insider-penny-stock-picks-with-kelly/ https://www.quietspeculation.com/2012/04/insider-penny-stock-picks-with-kelly/#comments Thu, 19 Apr 2012 04:01:13 +0000 http://www.quietspeculation.com/?p=27057

In the stock market, penny stocks are cheap, probably-junk securities that you get on the hope that they move up a few cents and show you a profit. They're an alluring strategy in the stock market because you can get a big volume of them. For one share of Apple, you could score well over 5,000 shares of a junk medical-science company that may be on the verge of a huge patent. If your shares go up, they go UP. We look at penny stocks in Magic the same way; these are the gambits that you stock up on with hopes of big payoffs.
