The Russell 2000, a reasonable proxy for penny stocks to buy, returned just under 3% over the same period. But that may soon change. After last week, we know that the likelihood of successive rate cuts in 2024 is high. Few stock sectors surge as much during low-rate periods as penny stocks. To be clear, we aren’t going to co
