Technology companies are a good example of a stock in this group. These are usually smaller companies that are emerging and have survived their formative years. They have entered a period of strong earnings and expanding unit sales and profit margins. These stocks are normally traded on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) or over-the-counter (NASDAQ), and their stock prices may be more volatile, therefore having a higher risk.
