What are Warrants?

A warrant is a security giving the holder the right, but not the obligation, to acquire the underlying security at a predetermined (i.e. exercise) price and for a specified period of time (i.e. term or duration).

Why Bother Investing in Warrants

Warrants are priced 70% to 75% less, on average, than their associated stocks and, therefore, you are in an ideal position to leverage your dollars very effectively, i.e. it gives you the opportunity to earn more dollars (in percentage terms) with considerably fewer dollars at risk.
