  • Hi, My name is Aaron and Im with Penny Stock
    Research, today were reviewing our recently
    published article

  • Will Rising Interest Rates Impact Penny Stock
    Investing?

6
  • Lets clear something up. Interest rates are
    important even for penny stocks. You see,
    interest rates are a major variable in how well
    or poorly the economy is doing.

7
  • Thats why the Fed has a powerful impact on
    economic performance. As such, even as penny
    stock investors, you dont want to just ignore
    interest rates. The overall economy certainly
    impacts penny stock companies, just like
    everything else.

8
  • On the other hand, interest rates direct impact
    on penny stock performance is going to be less
    than other, larger companies.

9
  • Ill get to that in a minute. First off, lets
    quickly review the current interest rate
    environment. Heres a look at what 10-year
    Treasury yields has done over the last year

11
  • As you can see, the yield on 10-year bonds has
    basically been above 2 since the spring.
    However, it hasnt made its way up to 2.5 yet
    this year. Its been closer to 2 than 2.5
    since August.

12
  • So where are interest rates headed next?

13
  • Most likely, the minor slowdown in the US
    economy, along with the issues in emerging
    markets, will result in the Fed keeping rates at
    current levels until 2016. That means the Fed
    Funds rate will remain at around 0.

14
  • That also means the 10-year bond yield will
    likely stick between 2 to 2.5 for the time
    being. However, bond yields are related to
    future expectations of rates, so we could see a
    higher move in yields

15
  • before the Fed actually makes any changes. Still,
    nothing is likely to happen anytime soon. When
    rates do start to rise probably early to mid
    2016 its going to be a slow rise.

16
  • Well mostly likely see rate hikes in increments
    of 25 basis points every couple months. The Fed
    will make sure not to raise rates too quickly.

17
  • While small rate hikes wont mean a whole lot to
    most consumers, they could have a large impact on
    the business world. Financial companies in
    particular will see very large impacts from even
    the smallest changes in rates.

18
  • So how do interest rates impact penny stock
    investing?

19
  • As I mentioned earlier, penny stocks can be
    impacted by rates if a raise in rates slows down
    the economy. A rising tide lifts all boats, so
    to speak.

20
  • But, the Fed should raise rates at a slow enough
    pace that an economic slowdown should be avoided.
    What about a direct impact?

21
  • Well, larger companies who have to take on debt
    (or who have variable rates on their current
    debt) will certainly feel the sting of higher
    rates. It will make debt more expensive. That
    could definitely eat into profits.

22
  • Fortunately, many penny stocks dont have a lot
    of debt because theyre small enough to get by on
    organic growth or existing cash holdings. That
    makes low-debt penny stock companies a good
    investment in a rising rate environment.

23
  • After all, you probably dont want to be
    investing in heavily indebted penny stocks
    anyways. Its hard to enough to grow a business
    without a major debt burden. Additional interest
    rate risk is the last thing you need to worry
    about.

24
  • In summary, its a good idea to understand the
    interest rate environment as it pertains to the
    economy as a whole. However, the direct impact
    on most penny stocks is minimal.

25
  • Finally, its probably a good idea to avoid penny
    stock companies with a large amount of debt.
