<h2>Taking the Risk Out of Microcap Stocks</h2>
<p>Do you want to make millions with the same amount of money that you spend on your daily coffee?</p>
<p>If you do, I have an opportunity for you: penny stocks.</p>
<p>I know some readers out there just rolled their eyes. Others might be on the edge of their seats. Penny stocks tend to trigger these reactions. Investors either don&rsquo;t want to be in them or want to invest in nothing but them.</p>
<p>Today&rsquo;s podcast is going to show you how you can use them to cash in on a developing industry.</p>
<p>But to begin, what qualifies as a penny stock? The SEC considers any stock trading below $5 to fit the category. Because of their value, these stocks tend to be less regulated. The companies are also less established… and have a higher fail rate.</p>
<p>But, on the flip side, penny stocks can help clever investors make heaps of profit.</p>
<p>Which brings me to the subject of this podcast. Today&rsquo;s podcast guest is penny stock expert Alex Koyfman. Alex has been investing in penny stocks for over 17 years. He is currently the editor of two financial newsletters: <em><a href=”https://www.wealthdaily.com/pubs/fic”>First Call</a></em>&nbsp;and <em><a href=”https://www.wealthdaily.com/pubs/psm” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>Penny Stock Millionaire.</a></em></p>
<p>Today, Alex is used to making six-figure profits. But it wasn&rsquo;t always this way. Alex learned from mistakes and pitfalls &mdash; <a href=”https://www.wealthdaily.com/articles/the-science-of-penny-stocks/5292″ target=”_blank” rel=”noopener noreferrer”>lessons he plans to pass on to you.</a></p>
<p>Specifically, we plan to talk about the biotech sector. Biotech stocks are often left neglected by investors, but with a health industry about to experience a major overhaul, now is the time to make a profit in health care.</p>
<p>Alex will walk us through how he picks a stock, what he looks for in a company, and what growth investors can expect to see from the biotech sector in the coming years.</p>
<p>Some of the companies Alex invests in have the potential to cure diseases that have eluded us for centuries &mdash; and you can get your piece for less than it costs to buy a cup of coffee at Starbucks.</p>
<p>As always, if you have questions &mdash; or know someone who would like to be a guest on the podcast &mdash; feel free to shoot me an email (alexandra.perryATangelpublishing.com).&nbsp;Alex would love to hear from you. The rest of our team of experts is also ready to tackle any question that you can think up, from alternative energy to penny stocks. Just let us know.</p>
<p>Happy listening!</p>
