Camber Energy Inc. (NYSE: CEI)
Camber Energy Inc. is an energy penny stock we have mentioned consistently over the past few weeks due to its market momentum. If you haven’t heard of CEI, it is an oil and gas corporation that is based in Texas. Its main focus is on acquiring and developing crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids to sell. As of March 31st, 2020, its total estimated proved reserves totaled 133,442 million barrels of oil equivalent. Over the past few weeks, Camber Energy has made some incredible strides in value. In the last month alone, shares of CEI stock have shot up by an outstanding 218% bringing its one year gain to almost 300%.
At the end of August, Camber announced that it had secured an exclusive IP license for a patented carbon-capture system. This exclusive intellectual property license agreement is related to stationary electric power generation and more. The ESG Clean Energy System is made to generate clean electricity from internal combustion engines and uses waste heat to capture almost 100% of CO2 without losing efficiency.
“In my view, this transaction positions us as an industry leader in terms of being able to assist with the power generation needs of commercial and industrial organizations while at the same time helping them reduce their carbon footprint to satisfy regulatory requirements or to simply follow best ESG-practices.”
President and CEO of Camber, James Doris
On October 4th, CEI stock’s volume was nearly double its market average. With this in mind, will you add CEI to your penny stock watchlist?
Progenity Inc. (NASDAQ: PROG)
If you’ve read any of our last few articles, this is probably a familiar name. It was on the list of short squeeze penny stocks to watch before the end of last month. At the time, most outlets showed PROG stock short float percentage over 40%. We also discussed how it also had a relatively lower float, in general. Many times this can present an interesting scenario for high volatility. Fast-forward to this week, and we see exactly how that plays out.
PROG stock retested highs from Friday, which is also levels around its 100-day moving average. It failed to break above this last week, and so far, the area around $2 has remained a sticking point at the start of this week. However, something to keep in mind is that since our article last month, PROG stock has rallied roughly 100%. With that big move, it’s important to monitor any new levels to identify potential support or resistance.
Other than this technical move, thanks to high short interest, Progenity has some fundamental things to look at also. Progenity is developing products for molecular testing. The company has worked on advancing things like its PreecludiaTM test to rule out preeclampsia in pregnant patients.
A recent study demonstrated that Preecludia could “significantly distinguish” between the presence and absence of preeclampsia. Progenity was also granted a patent for its preeclampsia rule-out test. In addition to this, Progenity announced a $20 million registered direct offering of common stock on Monday, October 4th. This is most likely a move to capitalize on its recent momentum.
