Pink Sheet
stocks are usually penny stocks that are unlisted on national exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or the American Stock Exchange because of low interest or inadequate funding. While some penny stocks are listed on a national exchange, most must be manually tracked in MSN Money (a collection of Internet sites and services provided by Microsoft) within the Investing Portfolio. The same holds true for privately held companies. In these cases, you must enter the data associated with the stock purchase yourself.
