The jump in price for SOPA stock today comes without any recent news from the company. Instead, heavy trading and activity on social media point to retail traders pumping up shares of the penny stock today.

That heavy trading has some 46 million shares of SOPA stock changing hands as of this writing. To put that in perspective, the company’s daily average trading volume is closer to 8.4 million shares.

Before investors ride the wave on SOPA stock today, note that the company’s shares are in the penny stock range. The low entry price makes it easy for day traders to manipulate the value of the stock. That means we could see a crash in the near future as traders dump their shares after reaching the peak.

Keeping that in mind, here’s what traders need to know about Society Pass.

  • Society Pass is developing a loyalty and data-focused marketing platform in Southeast Asia and South Asia.
  • The idea here is to create loyalty from customers that generates more revenue for merchants while making purchases easier for users.
  • The company notes that it already has more than 1.5 million registered users across over 3,500 merchants and brands.
  • Society Pass was previously known as Food Society before changing its name in October 2018.
  • The company was then incorporated under that name in November 2018 in Carson City, Nev.
  • Its market capitalization is currently sitting at $97.831 million.

SOPA stock is up 57.8% as of Tuesday morning.
