Every investor’s ultimate goal is to reap returns. They get more enthusiastic when they get to gain from a cheap security, i.e., security with a low share price and a low price-to earnings ratio. A low share price often helps investors to buy a fatter lot than occupying a slimmer set of high-ticket securities.

Also, in case of cheap security, a rise by just a few pennies per share can shape up into huge percentage profits. These securities are certainly highly vulnerable. Not hailing from the blue-chip category, these often carry risks associated with low market cap, and high trading costs on account of a wide bid/ask spread. But ‘no risk, no reward’.

Still investors, about to dip their toe into this risky world, can check for some investing ideas trending high in the present market. This could minimize the risk of one’s portfolio to some extent. One such hot field at present is dividend investing.
