OTC Stocks, or over-the-counter stocks, are different from the usual stocks that we regularly buy from major stock markets such as NYSE and the NASDAQ. Most of the stocks that are listed in OTC are penny stocks, which are generally the stocks that are being sold at less than $5 per share. These stocks are those that are being sold by new companies that are just starting with their business. The major difference of OTC stocks from regular stocks in the market is that OTC securities are unlisted, which means that there is no central exchange for the market. This also means that the process on how to buy OTC stocks can also be very different and confusing for more investors.
