Greenbrook TMS (NASDAQ:GBNH) stock is rocketing higher on Wednesday alongside heavy trading of the operator of mental health services centers’ shares this morning.

As of this writing, more than 18.9 million shares of GBNH stock have changed hands. That’s already well above the daily average trading volume of 506,000 shares for the company’s stock. It also bears mentioning that the float for Greenbrook TMS shares is around 13.12 million units.

Investors will note that this increased trading activity today comes without any news from the company. That includes a lack of press releases or filings. There’s also no new analyst coverage that would cause GBNH stock to rally this morning.

One thing that traders will want to keep in mind is GBNH stock’s penny status. That comes from its prior closing price of 19 cents and its market capitalization of about $8.3 million.

What This Means for GBNH Stock

Being a penny stock opens GBNH up to certain vulnerabilities. That includes volatility as certain traders try to manipulate its share price.

This could be what’s happening this morning, considering the lack of news and heavy trading of Greenbrook TMS stock. That means traders will want to be wary about investing in GBNH right now as a dip is likely to follow this rally.

GBNH stock is up 174.1% as of Wednesday morning.
