A value listed on a stock exchange with very low total capitalization, either due to a very low share price or a reduced number of shares. The possibility of influencing the price with little money is much greater, so it is occasionally subject to speculative pressures. The high or low capitalization qualifier depends on the market, as in the United States the limit would be one billion dollars and in Spain one hundred million euros.
