Why is it so risky trading in AIM stocks http://www.financial-spread-betting.com/Spread-betting-AIM-stocks.html and shares with low market caps as opposed to larger blue chip stocks? Chris Purdy, Sales Trader at Spreadex responds. A lot of spread traders find value in low market cap companies because they are undiscovered, untapped resource.
