Coeptis Therapeutics (NASDAQ:COEP) stock is climbing higher on Monday despite a lack of news from the drug company.
Investors searching for the reason why COEP stock is up today won’t find much news. The company hasn’t put out a press release or filing that explains why shares are climbing higher on Monday.
Instead, it looks like heavy trading volume is behind today’s gains. As of this writing, more than 1.5 million shares have changed hands. That’s a massive increase in trading volume compared to the company’s daily average of only about 109,000 shares.
Investors will keep in mind that COEP is a penny stock. That comes from its low average trading volume as well as its market capitalization of around $29 million and closing share price of $1.48 on Friday. This means it’s subject to volatility, especially in pre-market trading.
What Is Coeptis Therapeutics?

On Penny Stocks and Low-Volume Stocks: 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.
