Penny stocks are a hot topic for traders today and we’re diving into the top ones to keep an eye on for Wednesday!
But before we get too far into this, know that penny stocks are a risky investment. The space is subject to incredible volatility with retail traders able to easily pump and dump the prices of shares. That means investors will want to be careful when considering any investments in penny stocks.
With that warning out of the way, let’s dive into the top penny stocks today below!

With only the rarest exceptions, InvestorPlace does not publish commentary about companies that have a market cap of less than $100 million or trade less than 100,000 shares each day. That’s because these “penny stocks” are frequently the playground for scam artists and market manipulators. If we ever do publish commentary on a low-volume stock that may be affected by our commentary, we demand that InvestorPlace.com’s writers disclose this fact and warn readers of the risks.
