The Australian market has been buoyant, with the ASX200 reaching a seven-week high, driven by positive investor sentiment following Donald Trump's AI investment plan and favorable trade outcomes. In such an optimistic climate, investors often look beyond the major indices to explore opportunities in smaller companies that might offer both affordability and growth potential. Penny stocks, though a somewhat outdated term, still signify these smaller or emerging companies that can present significant value when backed by strong financials.
