3 Biotech Penny Stocks You Should Know About Right Now 

While the broader stock market is down today, there are plenty of penny stocks that are pushing up right now. And, over the past few months, many investors have been focused on biotech penny stocks. There are a few good reasons for the rise of the biotech industry during that time and the subsequent bullish momentum we’ve witnessed. To understand it fully, we have to take a closer look at the current state of the stock market. 

Right now, the main impacting factor is Covid and the resulting impact of the pandemic. While Covid cases are declining, in the U.S., we are witnessing a sizable amount of inflation. In addition, today, the Chinese housing market took a major hit, resulting in a large bearish trend around the world. However, given that the pandemic is still in focus, many biotech penny stocks have been rising as a result.
