But, there does seem to be a lot of bullish sentiment in the stock market right now. Although the factors mentioned above may seem scary at first, with penny stocks, they could present a benefit. There are a few reasons why this is the case. 

Investing in Penny Stocks in Late 2021

For one, most investors that trade penny stocks, look for stocks with high volatility and equally high speculation. These factors combined likely result in frequent and large price moves (both up and down). And because so many investors swing trade penny stocks, large moves represent an opportunity to make money. Now, we also have to consider that there are several issues to think about. 

As mentioned before, inflation, a potential bearish market turn, energy/labor shortages and more, are all on investors’ minds. And, many stocks are reaching very high levels, prompting investors to view it as either economic growth or a bubble. 

So, it’s clear that investing in penny stocks in 2021 is not easy. However, because there is so much going on, there is also a lot to take advantage of. With all of this in mind, let’s take a look at three popular penny stocks to watch right now.  

  1. Oragenics Inc. (NYSE: OGEN
  2. Energous Corp. (NASDAQ: WATT
  3. Gaotu Techedu Inc. (NYSE: GOTU

Today, the company announced that the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) granted it authorization for a wireless power transfer at any distance. This concerns its Active Energy harvesting transmitter, which can be used in a variety of applications. 

“This FCC certification of our Active Energy Harvesting Transmitter Technology marks the latest recognition of our efforts to further the regulatory pathway for far-field wireless power networks.

Gaotu Techedu Inc. (NYSE: GOTU) 

GOTU is a penny stock that we’ve covered numerous times in the past few months. And with an over 12% gain on October 19th, shares of GOTU stock have climbed by over 55% in the past month alone. Despite being down by over 92% since the beginning of 2021, Gaotu has worked to make its way back. 

And, the major decline is due to regulatory issues in China regarding for-profit education services. This sparked a bear run across all large Chinese tutoring companies, with Gaotu not being spared. While no announcement today is causing this gain, we can look at Gaotu’s Q2 2021 financial results which were reported only a few weeks ago. In the report, the company posted a 35% YoY increase in its net revenue alongside a 12% increase in its gross billings YoY. Despite a net loss of RMB 2,344 million, the company is working hard to get its head in the game. 

“In the second quarter of 2021, our revenue has reached a record high to 2.232 billion RMB…We should always keep the goal of education in mind, always firmly believe that education is a noble profession. It’s undeniable that we have boundless faith in the bright future of the Chinese education industry.” 

CEO and Founder of Gaotu, Larry Xiangdong Chen

This is all a positive sign and shows that GOTU is working hard to grow right now. Whether this makes GOTU stock worth adding to your list of penny stocks or not is up to you.
