Penny Stocks

Penny stocks are low-priced, high-risk shares of public companies typically found on OTC markets. Many investors are attracted to penny stock investments because their low share prices suggest a strong possible upside.

While some investors consider a penny stock to be any stock trading under $5.00, the table below focuses on stocks literally trading for pennies—i.e., under $1.00 per share—that have had the highest trading volume during the most recent trading day. As the markets change, so does this list. We'll bring you up-to-date information about penny stocks right here, serving as a jumping-off point for any investor in penny stocks.

You can sort the table below by current price, volume, and market cap to find the stocks you want to add to your portfolio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Penny stocks can offer high-reward opportunities but come with significant risks due to volatility, low liquidity, and potential for fraud. They are best suited for experienced or risk-tolerant investors.

Most penny stocks trade on OTC markets, where companies don’t need to meet strict listing requirements. Some also trade on major exchanges like the NYSE or Nasdaq if they qualify.

Penny stocks are often thinly traded, lack financial transparency, and can be subject to price manipulation, making them riskier than traditional stocks.

Use resources like MarketBeat.com to research financial reports, company news, volume trends, industry potential, analyst ratings, insider activity, and top penny stock movers. This list of the most active penny stocks is a great place to start your search.

Penny stocks are defined by share price (typically under $1.00 or $5.00), while micro-cap stocks are classified by market capitalization, usually under $300 million. Some overlap, but they aren’t always the same.

Yes, penny stocks are legal, but they are more lightly regulated, especially those trading on OTC markets. Be cautious of pump-and-dump schemes.

Rarely. Most penny stocks belong to small or struggling companies that reinvest profits instead of paying dividends.

Use stop-loss orders, trade liquid stocks, avoid hype, and only invest money you can afford to lose.

This page shows the most active penny stocks today. Sorting penny stocks by trading volume helps traders identify stocks with higher liquidity, which allows investors to enter and exit positions without significantly impacting the stock price. With active penny stocks, investors are less likely to get stuck with a stock, unable to sell it at a price that makes sense. High trading volume can also indicate investor interest and that the price may move up or down soon. While by default these stocks are sorted by the highest dollar volume of trading, you can also sort by most shares traded. Be sure to check the average trading column as well to compare the stock's volume so far today with the stock's volume on an average day.
