<h3>The Meaning Behind Value Stocks</h3>
<p>A value stock traditionally has a lower price when compared to stock prices of companies in the same industry. This indicates that the company may be undervalued, as investors are not expressing as much interest in such companies. The most commonly used way to check for value is with the price-to-earnings multiple, or P/E. A low P/E multiple is a good indication that the stock is undervalued. </p>
<h2>Benzinga Insights has compiled a list of value stocks in the financial services sector that may be worth watching:</h2>
<ol>
<li><strong>Genworth Finl</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNW#NYSE">GNW</a>) - P/E: 6.4</li>

Genworth Financial Inc (GNW) Stock: Do Analysts Think You Should Sell?

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>Investors should keep their eyes on these best <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/penny-stocks/">penny stocks</a> to buy in April for substantial gains for the rest of the year. Penny stocks are more affordable than their higher-priced counterparts, allowing investors with limited capital to participate in the stock market and build a diversified portfolio.</p>



<p>Another great thing is that these companies often have tiny market caps and cheap valuations, so the prospects of hitting a multi-bagger is perhaps the highest for these types of investments. </p>



<p>Of course, the flip side is that many penny stocks also carry a heightened risk of failure, as these smaller companies may lack the resources, management expertise, or competitive advantages to sustain long-term growth.</p>



<p>With that said, here are seven of the best penny stocks to buy for April. These companies have that magic mix of advantages and low valuations that make them attractive for investors of various risk tolerances and time horizons.</p>



<h2>Taboola (TBLA)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/shutterstock_1837963990-300x169.jpg" alt="TBLA stock: Taboola company website with logo close up"><div>Source: Postmodern Studio / Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Taboola</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/tbla-stock-quote/"><strong>TBLA</strong></a>) operates in the online advertising space, having gained recognition for its content recommendation platform and its deal with <strong>NBCUniversal News Group.</strong></p>



<p>I believe that TLBA could be one of those best penny stocks to buy in April for a few different reasons. Analysts <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/earnings-call-taboola-anticipates-robust-growth-in-2024-with-strong-q4-results-3321862">view TBLA&rsquo;s future positively</a>, expecting a 33% revenue growth in 2024 to nearly $2 billion. A $100 million share buyback program has also been authorized.</p>



<p>The company itself is <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/taboola-com-ltd-tbla-reports-113456704.html">forecasting substantial growth</a> across key metrics. The company expects revenue from its main operating segments to grow by 25% compared to 2023, with adjusted EBITDA expected to exceed $200 million and free cash flow projected to surpass $100 million.</p>



<p>TBLA could be a great pick for investors who want to invest in a developing advertising company without paying for a steep valuation. Therefore, it&rsquo;s one of those best penny stocks to buy in April.</p>



<h2>New Gold (NGD)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/gold1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Closeup of a large gold nugget. stocks under $10"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>New Gold</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ngd-stock-quote/"><strong>NGD</strong></a>) is a Canadian-based gold mining company with multiple projects.</p>



<p>Gold has always been a favorite of mine as a precious metal to invest in due to its lack of correlation with traditional risk assets, but NGD stands as a promising penny stock to invest in on its own while preserving some of Gold&rsquo;s uncorrelated properties.</p>



<p>The company has a number of investments planned for this year. These investments are expected to underpin free cash flow generation, <a href="https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/new-gold-outlines-significant-free-cash-flow-generation-profile-supported-by-improving-production-and-decreasing-costs-over-the-next-three-years-854846781.html">with a notable increase</a> in gold production projected at the Rainy River Mine to between 250,000 and 280,000 ounces.</p>



<p>Financially, NGD&rsquo;s performance in <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/gold-reports-fourth-quarter-full-221500827.html">2023 laid a strong foundation</a>, with revenue growing to $786.5 million from the previous year. The increase was primarily driven by higher sales volumes and gold prices, although partially offset by lower copper prices.&nbsp;</p>



<p>NGD could then be a great option for those who want exposure to precious metals.</p>



<h2>Bit Digital (BTBT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/bitcoin_world_map_1600-300x169.jpg" alt="A map of the world with Bitcoin iconography overlaid on various countries with lines between various icons."><div>Source: naulicrea / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Bit Digital</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/btbt-stock-quote/"><strong>BTBT</strong></a>) is engaged in the cryptocurrency mining sector, focusing on <strong>Bitcoin </strong>(<a href="https://investorplace.com/cryptocurrency/btc-usd/"><strong>BTC-USD</strong></a>) production.</p>



<p>Bitcoin will continue to be a strong winner in my opinion, and I think that after a pullback this April following the upcoming halving event, it could continue its rapid capital appreciation as institutional investment continues to pour into it. Small miners like BTBT could then lend themselves to significant returns.</p>



<p>In 2024, BTBT plans to focus on enhancing its <strong>Ethereum </strong>(<a href="https://investorplace.com/cryptocurrency/eth-usd/"><strong>ETH-USD</strong></a>) treasury holdings through the conversion of mined bitcoin into ETH for staking. For January 2024, BTBT reported the production of 145.7 BTC, a decrease from the previous month, with an active hash rate of approximately 2.50 EH/s.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The company&rsquo;s digital asset holdings, including BTC and ETH, were valued at approximately $74 million, with cash and equivalents of $22.6 million. BTBT&rsquo;s staked ETH earned a blended APY of about 3.69%, yielding approximately 38.7 ETH in rewards for the month.</p>



<p>This backdrop and its war chest of crypto make it one of the best penny stocks to buy in April.</p>



<h2>Future FinTech Group (FTFT)</h2>

<p>The company&rsquo;s main business includes an online shopping platform, Chain Cloud Mall (<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ccm-stock-quote/"><strong>CCM</strong></a>), based on blockchain technology. FTFT has expanded into financial services and cryptocurrency market data services.</p>



<p>For the third quarter of 2023, <a href="https://www.wallstreetzen.com/stocks/us/nasdaq/ftft/earnings">FTFT reported an earnings per share</a>&nbsp; of negative 16 cents marking a 36% improvement compared to the same period the previous year, where the EPS was negative 25 cents The total earnings for the quarter were approximately -$2.49 million.</p>



<p>The reason I think FTFT could be a long-term winner is that its CCM platform is one of the most disruptive in the industry, and <a href="https://bluetree.digital/fintech-market-growth-statistics/#:~:text=The%20global%20fintech%20market%20is%20projected%20to%20reach%20%24460%20billion,22.17%25%20from%202020%20to%202025.">gives people an alternative</a> to the big name brands. The fintech industry is expanding rapidly, and I believe that investors should have exposure to this sector for long-term gains.</p>



<h2>Gerdau (GGB)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/ggb-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="A close-up shot of the Gerdau (GGB) office sign in Sao Paolo, Brazil."><div>Source: casa.da.photo / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Gerdau</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ggb-stock-quote/"><strong>GGB</strong></a>) is a steel producer with operations spread across various sectors such as civil construction and automotive. The steel industry heavily relies on the health of the Chinese economy to fuel its expansive construction projects.</p>



<p>I&rsquo;m bullish on China, notwithsanding some short-term setbacks, as it has <a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/chinas-service-economy-expands-further-caixin-pmi-shows-b6c0ca62">now shown some signs of recovery</a>.</p>



<p>The company <a href="https://www.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/GERDAU-S-A-6492877/news/Gerdau-S-A-2Q23-Earnings-Release-44555220/">closed the second quarter</a> of 2023 with an adjusted EBITDA of $3.8 billion, marking one of its best historical results for the period, despite a slight decrease in shipments of steel. </p>



<p>Despite this, GGB&rsquo;s P/E ratio is below the US market average, indicating good value compared to peers and industry.</p>



<p>GGB stock is then one of those best penny stocks to buy due its valuation, as well as the fact that it gives investors some indirect exposure to China&rsquo;s continued rise as an emerging economy through its healthy appetite for steel.</p>



<p>The projected one-year price target suggests a potential upside of 19.16% from its current price, setting the target at $5.10.</p>



<h2>Genworth Financial (GNW)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/gnw1600-300x169.jpg" alt="A shot of the Genworth Financial (GNW) sign on an office building in Canada."><div>Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Genworth Financial</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gnw-stock-quote/"><strong>GNW</strong></a>) is an insurance holding company offering products like mortgage insurance and long-term care insurance.</p>



<p>In the fourth quarter of 2023, GNW <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/genworth-financial-gnw-q4-2023-194515748.html">experienced several financial shifts</a>, notably in its long-term care insurance and life and annuities sectors. </p>



<p>The company reported an adjusted operating loss of $151 million in long-term care insurance, a decrease from a $204 million income in the same quarter of the previous year.&nbsp;</p>



<p>&nbsp;It also announced a significant $350 million share repurchase authorization in July of the previous year. GNW plans to invest approximately $35 million in 2024 in CareScout services, aiming to drive long-term growth for its offerings.</p>



<p>I think that GNW could be one of those penny stocks to buy in April, primarily due to management&rsquo;s strong conviction that its shares are undervalued, evidence through the share repurchase, as well as being n undervalued insurance company in its own right when compared with its peer companies.</p>



<h2>Transocean (RIG)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/rig-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Transocean logo on a laptop screen. RIG stock."><div>Source: Postmodern Studio / Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Transocean</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/rig-stock-quote/"><strong>RIG</strong></a>) is a major player in deep-water and ultra-deep-water drilling with a global operational footprint.</p>



<p>RIG entered 2024 on a <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/transocean-ltd-rig-reports-narrowed-113215085.html">somewhat positive note</a>, with a narrowed net loss in Q4 2023 and a robust backlog. RIG reported an adjusted EBITDA of $122 million and a margin of 16.3%. </p>



<p>The company&rsquo;s backlog stood at $9.01 billion. Meanwhile, its management noted the addition of $3.2 billion to the backlog during the quarter and highlighted the delivery and commissioning of two eighth-generation drillships.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This backdrop is enough for me to recommend RIG and one of the best penny stocks for investors to scoop up in April this year.</p>



<p>The stock has also seen an increase in value, rising 5% from the start of 2024 to the recent trading price. Analysts set a 12-month price target with an average expectation of $8.06, indicating a potential upside of around 20.9% from its current trading level&#8203;.</p>

The 7 Best Penny Stocks to Buy in April 2024

Genworth Financial files automatic mixed shelf

Genworth Financial Non-GAAP EPS of $0.19 beats by $0.05, revenue of $1.86B

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>May has brought attention to seven <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/penny-stocks/">penny stocks</a> that investors should consider adding to their portfolios. As a keen observer of the cryptocurrency market, I&rsquo;ve been watching <strong>Bitcoin</strong> (<a href="https://investorplace.com/cryptocurrency/btc-usd/"><strong>BTC-USD</strong></a>) closely as it aims to reach new all-time highs. However, I&rsquo;ve also been keeping an eye on some fascinating penny stocks that I believe offer significant value.</p>



<p>Investors with different risk tolerances and investment horizons should consider allocating a small portion of their portfolios to top penny stocks. These companies have the potential to boost returns, especially in the current bull market. During a bear market, the stability provided by <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/blue-chip-stocks/">blue-chip stocks</a> or broad-market ETFs can help absorb the impact of losses.</p>



<p>With Bitcoin now retracing below $60,000 at the time of writing, investors seeking impressive gains may look elsewhere, and these penny stocks may fit the bill. I think that these companies are also solid options regardless of what the broader market is doing, as they are solid companies in their own right. This could give them the potential to mint new millionaires.</p>



<p>So here are seven penny stocks for investors to consider buying in May this year.</p>



<h2>Innovative Eyewear (LUCY)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/lucy1600-300x169.png" alt="Smart glasses. Businessman in white shirt holding smart glasses with digital information on virtual screen high tech interface. Futuristic technology and augmented reality concept. LUCY stock"><div>Source: tete_escape / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Innovative Eyewea</strong>r (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/lucy-stock-quote/"><strong>LUCY</strong></a>) provides smart eyewear solutions, blending fashion and technology.</p>



<p>LUCY is advancing its position in the smart eyewear market. In its 2023 financial results, LUCY reported annual revenues of $1.15 million, up 75% year-over-year, primarily driven by gains in direct-to-consumer and <strong>Amazon </strong>(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/amzn-stock-quote/"><strong>AMZN</strong></a>) channels.<br><br>The fourth quarter saw record revenue of $615,754, reflecting consistent growth across four quarters.</p>



<p>Looking ahead, LUCY <a href="https://uk.advfn.com/stock-market/NASDAQ/LUCY/share-news/Innovative-Eyewear-Inc-Reports-2023-Financial-Res/93542413">aims to diversify its portfolio</a> with new products, including smart eyewear lines from brands like <strong>Nautica</strong> and <strong>Eddie Bauer</strong>, as well as launching the Lucyd Armor safety glasses line. The company also introduced the Blueshift lens for enhanced eye protection and comfort, and the Lucyd app.</p>



<p>Smart eyewear could be part of an emerging trend in tech and fashion, which is an evolution from smart watches, but for eyeglasses. I think that this niche has potential, especially for those who love gadgets. LUCY&rsquo;s position then is a strong one.</p>



<h2>E-Home Household Service (EJH)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/cleaning1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Someone cleaning a kitchen table with a spray bottle and towel.. AERC, SNOA Stock"><div>Source: Maridav/ShutterStock.com</div></div><p><strong>E-Home Household Service </strong>(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ejh-stock-quote/"><strong>EJH</strong></a>) is a comprehensive household service provider; offering cleaning, housekeeping, and other related services to a variety of clientele.</p>



<p>The company&rsquo;s 2023 <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/ejh/">financials showed revenue</a> of $68.32 million, despite recording losses for the year, indicating both expansion and operational scaling. The company has also made significant strategic partnerships, including property cleaning contracts worth RMB 22 million and a collaboration with <strong>Xi&rsquo;an Liangjian Technology</strong> to provide pharmaceutical services, expected to yield RMB 10 million.</p>



<p>Going forward, E-Home Household Service aims to consolidate its market presence by growing its portfolio and expanding its reach, particularly in China&rsquo;s integrated home services sector&#8203;.</p>



<p>A major weakness for many U.S. investors&rsquo; portfolios is a lack of international diversification, especially in emerging markets. EJH could then tick two boxes as a high potential penny stock as well as a company that has an established presence in China.</p>



<h2>Vertex Energy (VTNR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/waste-management-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="person depositing a plastic water bottle in a yellow plastic recycling bin. The bin is in a line-up of several other blue and green bins."><div>Source: shutterstock.com/PhotoByToR</div></div><p><strong>Vertex Energy</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/vtnr-stock-quote/"><strong>VTNR</strong></a>) is a waste management company specializing in recycling industrial waste oils and producing alternative fuels.</p>



<p>In 2023, Vertex reported an increase in total production, reaching 73,745 barrels per day across its operations&#8203;.&nbsp; Despite some market volatility, Vertex&rsquo;s growth trajectory remains positive, with planned developments in renewable fuels and ongoing strategic transactions&#8203;</p>



<p>For the first quarter of 2024, Vertex <a href="https://investors.vertexenergy.com/press-releases/press-releases-details/2024/Vertex-Energy-Announces-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-2023-Financial-Results/default.aspx">reported an update on its operational outlook</a>, including anticipated throughput exceeding guidance due to stronger capacity utilization&#8203;. The company&rsquo;s quarterly results show total production of 64,000 barrels per day, with renewable diesel production at 4,000 barrels per day, maintaining a production yield of over 95%.</p>



<p>With higher capacity comes higher earnings. I think then that VTNR could be one of those penny stocks for investors to have on their radars, especially since it operates in two lucrative sectors, namely alternative fuels and industrial waste recycling.</p>



<h2>Weight Watchers International (WW)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/ww1600-300x169.png" alt="WW studio, formally Weight Watchers location. WW offers including healthy lifestyle options such as weight loss, maintenance, and fitness."><div>Source: Jonathan Weiss / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Weight Watchers International</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ww-stock-quote/"><strong>WW</strong></a>) offers weight management programs, combining technology and in-person support to help individuals achieve healthier lifestyles&#8203;.<br><br>WW has been <a href="https://corporate.ww.com/news/news-details/2024/WW-International-Inc.-Announces-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-2023-Results/default.aspx">adjusting its business strategy</a> and product offerings, yielding mixed results for 2023. The company&rsquo;s revenue for the full year 2023 was $889.6 million, down 14.5% from the previous year, with gross profit of $529.3 million.</p>



<p>The company&rsquo;s earnings per share in Q4 2023 was -$0.06, slightly missing analyst expectations, but earnings are expected to grow in the upcoming year to $0.40 per share.<br><br>The company has also announced plans for continued engagements, such as upcoming events on weight health and new offerings in its weight loss programs. Additionally, analysts forecast an average 3.31% revenue growth for WW in 2024&#8203;.</p>



<p>It seems that WW is on a path of recovery after restructuring its offerings, and with rising obesity levels worldwide, the company is in a strong position to grow its fundamentals.</p>



<h2>EAF GrafTech International (EAF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/penny-stocks-300x169.png" alt="Stacks of pennies representing penny stocks. Nano-Cap Penny Stocks"><div>Source: John Brueske / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>EAF GrafTech Internationa</strong>l (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/eaf-stock-quote/"><strong>EAF</strong></a>) is a leading manufacturer of graphite electrodes used in electric arc furnace steel production.<br><br>The company reported a <a href="https://ir.graftech.com/investors/news/news-details/2024/GrafTech-Reports-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-2023-Results/default.aspx">net loss of $217 million</a> for 2023, with adjusted free cash flow of $50 million, reflecting an ongoing focus on managing working capital&#8203;. In Q1 2024, GrafTech reported a loss of $0.12 per share but exceeded analyst expectations. This was attributed to continued softness in the commercial environment, though the company&rsquo;s production volumes and revenue showed improvement.<br><br>To strengthen its financial position, GrafTech completed a $450 million private offering of senior secured notes, extending debt maturities to 2028. The company&rsquo;s Monterrey facility, which had faced regulatory challenges, has also seen operations restart, which should support GrafTech&rsquo;s growth.<br><br>The company expects sales volumes for 2024 to range from 13,000 to 16,000 metric tons&#8203; this year. EAF is therefore in a strong position, and could lead to a seven-figure sum with a sizable investment, provided favorable conditions are met.</p>



<h2>Genworth Financial (GNW)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/gnw1600-300x169.jpg" alt="A shot of the Genworth Financial (GNW) sign on an office building in Canada."><div>Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Genworth Financial</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gnw-stock-quote/"><strong>GNW</strong></a>) is an insurance company providing life insurance, long-term care insurance.<br><br>The company&rsquo;s Q4 2023 earnings <a href="https://investor.genworth.com/">report showed a net loss</a> of $212 million, or $0.47 per diluted share. This was driven by unfavorable impacts from assumption updates in its life insurance and long-term care insurance (<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ltc-stock-quote/"><strong>LTC</strong></a>) segments&#8203;. Adjusted operating loss was $230 million, or $0.51 per diluted share. Revenue for Q4 was $1.91 billion.<br><br>Genworth has been proactive in addressing its financial structure, completing the redemption of its 2024 senior notes and focusing on strengthening its balance sheet&#8203;. The company also reported an increase in statutory pre-tax income to $148 million in Q4 2023, driven by various factors including benefits from premium increases and benefit reductions from in-force rate actions in its LTC segment&#8203;.</p>



<p>Looking ahead, Genworth aims to continue navigating the challenges of its industry, particularly in managing its LTC and life insurance operations. It could then have multi-bagger potential given its rock bottom valuation.</p>



<h2>New Gold (NGD)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="199" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/4-300x199.jpg" alt="gold mining stocks gold stocks gold prices"><div>Source: &copy;iStock.com/belchonock</div></div><p><strong>New Gold</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ngd-stock-quote/"><strong>NGD</strong></a>) operates in the mining sector, focusing on the exploration and production of gold and other precious metals from its global assets.<br><br>In 2023, the company <a href="https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/quote/NGD.TO">achieved consolidated gold equivalent production</a> of 423,517 ounces, reaching the top end of its guidance. Looking ahead to 2024, New Gold outlines plans for a gold production increase at its Rainy River Mine, projecting 250,000 to 280,000 ounces.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This growth is supported by a modest increase in gold grade and higher mining rates, particularly from its underground Main Zone which is expected to start production in Q4 2024. Additionally, the company projects total capital investments between $145 to $165 million.<br><br>New Gold&rsquo;s management also anticipates improvements in its operational and financial performance through 2026. The company remains focused on optimizing its production profile and reducing costs over the coming years.</p>



<p>NGD&rsquo;s performance could make it an attractive pick for those who are looking to diversify into gold, as well as pick up shares of a company that could mint new mllionaires.</p>

Genworth Financial, Inc. (GNW) Q1 2024 Earnings Call Transcript

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>Investing in smaller public companies, specifically those with shares trading under $5, commonly known as <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/penny-stocks/"></a>penny stocks, is quickly becoming an appealing choice for investors hunting for great returns in today&rsquo;s economic climate. This reality forms the thesis of my article for the best penny stocks to buy for June.</p>



<p>When bigger firms show inflated values and the <strong>S&amp;P 500&rsquo;s</strong> price-to-earnings ratio is at a hefty <a href="https://ycharts.com/indicators/sp_500_pe_ratio#:~:text=S&amp;P%20500%20P/E%20Ratio,States%20stock%20market%20is%20performing.">24.79x earnings,</a> penny stocks offer an exciting alternative. There are rumblings about high-valued tech giants being responsible for driving index return rates up causing fears regarding overvaluation &mdash; making it plausible that money might start flowing into less capitalized businesses soon enough. It&rsquo;s definitely worth keeping an eye out for this possible trend!</p>



<p>However, use caution, even when dealing with the best penny stocks to buy. These stocks are rather unstable and can swing wildly in value. Plus, many of them lack the &ldquo;liquidity&rdquo; or ease to buy or sell shares without changing their price significantly, making it hard to sell them in a hurry.</p>



<p>With that said, here are seven of the best penny stocks investors should consider this month.</p>



<h2>Genworth Financial (GNW)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/gnw1600-300x169.jpg" alt="A shot of the Genworth Financial (GNW) sign on an office building in Canada."><div>Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Genworth Financial</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gnw-stock-quote/"><strong>GNW</strong></a></span>) is an insurance company with multiple business segments. Its main segments are life insurance, long-term care insurance and mortgage insurance. The company started over a century ago, and over the years it has grown to be among the leading insurance providers to millions of people through various insurance products. I think it&rsquo;s one of those best penny stocks that could become a multibagger in the future.</p>



<p>It <a href="https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_e115170efda3dd6ad23ff9ce6e8e19eb/genworth/db/2288/22921/earnings_release/1Q24+Earnings+Release_FINAL2.pdf">has shown promising results</a> for the beginning of 2024, with strategic measures taken by the company.&nbsp;Genworth bought back $63 million of shares in Q1 2024, totaling $434 million through April 30 at an average price of $5.42 per share. A subsidiary, Enact, declared a higher quarterly dividend payment and initiated a new program of buying back $250 million worth of shares.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Financially, Genworth reported net income of $139 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, and an adjusted operating income of $85 million, or $0.19 per diluted share. Enact raised its adjusted operating income for Genworth to $135 million and capital returns to $61 million.&nbsp;</p>



<p>These results are why I&rsquo;m bullish on GNW, as I think it&rsquo;s a trend that will continue.</p>



<h2>Uranium Energy Corp (UEC)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/uranium1600-300x169.jpg" alt="periodic table concept with black cubes. uranium element is glowing. Uranium stocks"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p>Investors are turning their attention to uranium as <strong>VanEck Uranium and Nuclear Technologies UCITS ETF </strong>(NYSEARCA:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/nlr-stock-quote/"><strong>NLR</strong></a></span>)<strong> </strong>has broken the <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/etf/nlr/">$200 million mark</a> for assets under management. The ETF is related to companies operating in the uranium and nuclear energy area, and inflows are pouring in.</p>



<p>That leads me to <strong>Uranium Energy Corp</strong> (NYSEMKT:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/uec-stock-quote/"><strong>UEC</strong></a>), a&nbsp;uranium mining and exploration company. It seizes opportunities from the increasing need for clean, environmentally friendly and carbon-free nuclear energy in the U.S. The firm&rsquo;s activities comprise the development and exploration projects located in the United States of America, emphasizing environmentally friendly and efficient mining processes.<br><br>UEC&rsquo;s revenue is <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/uec/forecast/">projected to grow significantly</a> in the coming years. From $23.16 million in 2022, revenue is expected to soar to $118.79 million in 2026, representing a growth of 412.91%. Companies like UEC will be in hot demand as the world pivots away from thermal coal burning and into cleaner sources.<br></p>



<h2>FingerMotion (FNGR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/fngr1600-300x169.png" alt="Woman pay with mobile phone by NFC technology. FNGR stock"><div>Source: leungchopan / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>FingerMotion</strong> (NASDAQ:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/fngr-stock-quote/"><strong>FNGR</strong></a></span>) is a new technology company with its primary focus on the provision of mobile money payment and communication services. It provides a vision for changing the user experience of mobile devices through big data analysis to offer new services to the telecommunication and financial services industries.</p>



<p>The company <a href="https://fingermotion.com/news/177-fingermotion-reports-fy-2024-financial-results">provided its financial results</a> for the first quarter of the fiscal year 2024, revealing many improvements in its financial and operating activities. The company generated annual revenue of $35.79 million, up 5% compared to the last fiscal year.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Although it provided rather contradictory results across various business lines, FingerMotion decreased its annual net loss by 50% and reported a net loss of $3.76 million, which shows a better financial position than in 2023.</p>



<p>Stock-wise, analysts have a bullish view about <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/fngr/forecast/">FNGR and still hold a Strong Buy</a> recommendation with a target price of $5. That indicates a potential upside of approximately 66% from its current price&#8203;.</p>



<h2>SelectQuote (SLQT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/insurance-audit-300x169.jpg" alt='a person holds up a scrap of paper that asks "Are you covered?"'><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>SelectQuote</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/slqt-stock-quote/"><strong>SLQT</strong></a></span>) is an insurance sales platform that aims to deliver insurance directly to the consumer. It also enables the consumer to compare and purchase insurance from different carriers. It opened in 1985, and over the years has expanded its operations by focusing on guaranteeing consumers value for their money in the insurance sector.</p>



<p>SLQT&rsquo;s recent financial performance has made me feel bullish.</p>



<p>Revenues of <a href="https://ir.selectquote.com/news/news-details/2024/SelectQuote-Inc.-Reports-Third-Quarter-2024-Results/default.aspx">SelectQuote for the third quarter</a> of the fiscal year 2024 amounted to $376.4 million, with a net income of $8.6 million. Adjusted EBITDA reached $46.6 million. The company increased its FY2024 revenue expectations between $1.25 billion and $1.3 billion. Previous estimates were in the range of $1.23 billion to $1.3 billion.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Concerning the net loss, projections changed from a range of $34 million to $21 million. Previous estimates were between $45 million and $22 million. Adjusted EBITDA guidance increased to between $100 and $110 million from $90 to $105 million.</p>



<p>In terms of actual performance, SelectQuote has experienced significant growth in SelectRx membership within the Healthcare Services, one of its main revenue-generating operations. The membership grew to 75,074.</p>



<p>SQLT, therefore, operates a growing business in terms of operational achievements and strengthening financial stability.</p>



<h2>Overseas Shipholding Group (OSG)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/oilandgasstocks1600-300x169.png" alt="Panorama of Oil and Gas central processing platform in twilight, offshore hard work occupation twenty four working hours. Best oil stocks to buy. Oil &amp; Gas Stocks to Avoid"><div>Source: Oil and Gas Photographer / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Overseas Shipholding Group</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/osg-stock-quote/"><strong>OSG</strong></a></span>) is one of the largest energy transportation companies that transport crude oil and petroleum products around the world. The company has a fleet of vessels and is one of the best penny stocks for investors this month.</p>



<p>OSG had a <a href="https://www.osg.com/overseas-shipholding-group-reports-first-quarter-2024-results/">great first quarter</a> that I think will continue throughout the year. Shipping revenues were $117.5 million, an increase of $3.7 million, or 3.3%, compared to the first quarter of 2023. Net income was $14.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $12.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023&#8203;.<br><br>Also, OSG seems undervalued compared to its peers in terms of the valuation ratios. It has a rather low price-to-earnings ratio of <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/osg/statistics/">10.32 times earnings,</a> which shows the stock is still relatively inexpensive. That is relatively limited compared to other companies, which indicates this is a good opportunity for undervaluation.</p>



<h2>Pitney Bowes (PBI)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/pbi-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="The office logo for Pitney Bowes on a glass building."><div>Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Pitney Bowes</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/pbi-stock-quote/"><strong>PBI</strong></a></span>) specializes in mailing, logistics and e-commerce. The company started in 1920, initially beginning as a postage meter producer. Today, it is one of the world&rsquo;s leading providers of commerce solutions, with billions of transactions taking place around the globe.</p>



<p>The company <a href="https://www.investorrelations.pitneybowes.com/news-releases/news-release-details/pitney-bowes-announces-first-quarter-2024-financial-results">provided its revenue guidance for 2024,</a> expecting it to be flat to a low single-digit decline. EBIT margins are anticipated to remain comparable to the previous year. Capital expenditures for 2024 are projected to be at the same level as in 2023. However, interest expenses and taxes will likely increase.</p>



<p>PBI&rsquo;s revenue in the first quarter of 2024 was $831 million, slightly down from the $835 million recorded in the same quarter of the previous year, marking a marginal decline. That figure slightly exceeded market expectations, which had forecasted revenue of $797 million.</p>



<p>Looking ahead, analysts project <a href="https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NYSE/PBI/earnings/">significant growth in the company&rsquo;s earnings per share</a> over the next year, increasing from -2 cents to 34 cents. This is a key reason I think it&rsquo;s one of those best penny stocks to buy.</p>



<h2>Linde (LIN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/lin_linde_1600-300x169.png" alt="Logo of Linde AG (LIN) in Hanover, Germany - The Linde Group is a multinational chemical company"><div>Source: nitpicker / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Linde</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/lin-stock-quote/"><strong>LIN</strong></a></span>) is one of the world&rsquo;s largest industrial gasses and engineering companies catering to a number of industries like healthcare, petroleum refining, manufacturing and food and beverage. The company focuses on operational efficiency as well as the promotion of sustainable industrial processes.</p>



<p>LIN <a href="https://www.sharewise.com/us/news_articles/EQSNews_Linde_Reports_FirstQuarter_2024_Results_Earnings_Release_Tables_Attached_Linde_Plc_eqsen_20240502_0945">posted its first-quarter 2024</a> earnings, showing $8.1 billion in revenue, which was 1% less than the previous year. However, underlying sales increased 1%. Operating profit stood at $2.1 billion, and the adjusted operating profit was $2.3 billion, an increase of 6%.</p>



<p> EPS was $3.35, up 9% from the previous quarter, and the adjusted EPS was $3.75, up 10% year-over-year. Linde expects adjusted EPS for fiscal 2024 to be in the range of $15.30 to $15.60, an 8% to 10% annual increase.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Due to the demand for industrial gasses, LIN&rsquo;s <a href="https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/lin/forecast/">revenue is estimated to grow</a> from $34.01 billion in 2024 to $43.8 billion by 2028. The EPS also depicts a significant growth trend, rising from $14.89 in 2024 to $22.40 by 2028.</p>
