4 Best Penny Stocks To Buy Under $4 Today? 1 With 109% Price Target

Penny Stocks To Buy Under $4

Just because something is cheap, doesn’t necessarily mean it’s worth it. This is the case with all penny stocks. When it comes time to buy, there should be much more that goes into your strategy than just, “It’s a cheap stock”. Small cap stocks today are incredibly volatile. The stock market, in general, has experienced yet another major surge. There’s also a huge shake-up going on with one of the most popular trading platforms, Robinhood.

In early news, Robinhood traders began circulating some unnerving details of a new SEC charge. The Securities and Exchange Commission alleged that Robinhood Financial duped users by not saying how the firm makes money.

"Robinhood failed to seek to obtain the best reasonably available terms when executing customers' orders, causing customers to lose tens of millions of dollars. Today's action sends a clear message that the Commission will not allow brokers to ignore their obligations to customers."

Joseph Sansone, Chief of the SEC Enforcement Division's Market Abuse Unit

What’s more is that the Commission alleges that "inferior [execution] prices…deprived customers of $34.1 million even after taking into account the savings from not paying a commission."

This, of course, hasn’t stopped users from buying penny stocks on Robinhood. But it could mark a changing of the times for millennial traders. Needless to say, the more you know, the better off you are. Going full circle, the more you know about certain penny stocks, the more prepared you might be to make a trade. Just because these are “cheap” are they worth it to trade?

Penny Stocks To Buy Under $4: American Battery Metals Company

If you look at some of the industries gaining considerably higher levels of interest, what have you seen? In my opinion, one of the hottest of the fourth quarter has been electric vehicles and renewable energy. With the upcoming inauguration of Joe Biden as the 46th President of the U.S., his initiatives on renewables have become a huge focus for traders. Furthermore, the compounded impact from earlier in the year stemming from Tesla’s Battery Day have added fuel to the speculative fire.

American Battery Metals Company (ABML Stock Report) is a lithium-ion battery recycling tech company. Its mineral resources in Nevada have become a strong point of focus for traders. What’s more, is that the company is in the process of changing its name to American Battery Technology Company and is preparing to open a pilot lithium-ion battery recycling plant in Nevada.

The company announced an update to this project this week. That seems to have become a nice catalyst heading into the end of the month. Pilot factory land has been purchased and water rights were secured. “At full capacity, our pilot facility will recycle 20,000 metric tons of feedstock a year to recover critical and strategic materials needed to manufacture new EV and consumer electronic batteries – and to ensure these lithium-ion batteries do not end up in the landfill as waste,” said CEO Doug Cole.

As electric vehicle stocks continue heating up, you can’t forget about the “food chain” to produce these vehicles. Obviously lithium-ion batteries are “kind of” an important piece.

Penny Stocks To Buy Under $4: Energy Fuels Inc.

In budgetary terms, the nuclear program accounts for about 75% of the Department of Energy’s budget*; roughly $27 billion.
