This can be a good way to hedge against inflation and other potential volatility swings. The retail trading crowd can also play its own part. Last week we saw that come to light when so-called “Robinhood traders” fixated on the latest high-flyer, Regencell Bioscience Holdings (NASDAQ: RGC). Whether it was speculation on the latest low float stock or Regencell’s biotech platform, traders flocked to this issuer late Friday afternoon (See: Is RGC Stock Rallying On Mistaken Identity?).

One of the specifics to note when it comes to Robinhood and similar apps is the fact that only certain types of stocks are accessible. In this case, typically Nasdaq and NYSE penny stocks are tradeable; not OTC stocks. But with a long list to choose from, there are plenty of options out there. Which one will be the next high-flyer this week? Let’s take a look at three hot penny stocks to watch right now.

On August 17th, the company announced its success from its international expansion in North America. Only recently, Farmmi made some big moves into the North American food market by way of a Canadian order. This involves an order for Shiitake mushrooms from a Canadian international trading company. Orders like this are important for investors to consider as expansion is always a positive. This is especially true when we consider the international expansion of its edible mushroom products. 

“We are pleased with our growth in international markets. Demand is being driven by consumers’ desire for more healthy and nutritional options, which mushrooms fulfill as one of nature’s true superfoods.”

Yamana owns various exploration properties, development-stage projects, as well as land in several countries around the world. During the pandemic, many investors have set their eyes on mining stocks due to their relative stability and as a hedge against market volatility.

On August 16th, the company announced that it has repurchased an initial 1,736,776 common shares under its share repurchase program for CAD 10 million. Yamana feels like its common share market value doesn’t represent its full value and growth prospects. The company purchased these common shares as an investment for its portfolio.
