The Canadian stock market is showing strong momentum as we head into 2025, driven by strong consumer spending and rising corporate profits, although investors remain wary of potential curveballs. In the midst of this situation, penny stocks – small or new companies that often fly under the radar – continue to offer interesting opportunities for those who want to explore beyond the big mega-cap names. While the term “penny stock” may sound cheap, these funds can reveal hidden value and financial power in unexpected segments of the market.
