<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
While <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/blue-chip-stocks/">blue-chip stocks</a> should always make up the core of your investments, it pays to also look at other options when creating an optimized portfolio. You should still look for <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/growth-stocks/">growth stocks</a> to buy, but it&rsquo;s a good idea to consider those that are under the radar.



One good method is to look for growth stocks at a low price point &ndash; for this an exercise, we&rsquo;ll use a price point of $25. Buying stocks at this level gives you a chance to get more share for your money. 



For instance, for $1,000 you can buy 40 shares of a $25 stock versus 10 shares of a $100 stock. More shares mean that even small price increases can result in significant gains, providing a substantial return on investment.



This strategy also helps you diversify your portfolio. Spreading your investments across various sectors and companies helps mitigate risk. 



If one stock underperforms, your losses will be minimal. Including a mix of established companies and lesser-known entities in your portfolio can increases your chances of capturing high returns from emerging leaders in different industries.



The names on this list are smaller companies that have strong potential for expansion and profitability. Focus on under $25 growth stocks for potential undervalued opportunities and future growth.



We&rsquo;ll use the Portfolio Grader to identify these under-$25 gems, based on their earnings history, growth, momentum and analyst sentiment. These stocks are a great way for growth investors to add some diversification to their holdings.
