<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>Stocks valued at less than $10 per share can be risky investments because of their low prices. But these low-cost, A-rated stocks can also be a smart move for a savvy investor.</p>



<p>Stocks with a low price but a good grade in the Portfolio Grader have the potential for high returns. Because these stocks have a low price, even a small increase can result in substantial gains.</p>



<p>Stocks that have a low price can also be easily overlooked, both by institutional investors and retail traders. </p>



<p>So, if you can find a company that&rsquo;s undervalued or overlooked, you have a better chance of profiting when the market eventually corrects.</p>



<p>I like the names on this list as a way to diversify your portfolio with A-rated stocks. While blue chips have a place in any portfolio, it&rsquo;s best to mix up your holdings &ndash; and these names provide a good foil to the better-known names in your portfolio.</p>



<p>Just one word of caution, however: these A-rated stocks can be volatile. So when investing in these kinds of companies, you have to accept some added risk. But if you hit some winners, you also have the benefit of some potentially outsized rewards.</p>



<p>Let&rsquo;s use the Portfolio Grader to look for the best A-rated stocks to buy now that are priced at less than $10.</p>



<h2>Bitfarms (BITF)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/bitf1600-300x169.png" alt="Bitcoin and crypto mining farm. Big data center. High tech server computers at work. Bitfarms (BITF) mines crypto."><div>Source: PHOTOCREO Michal Bednarek / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Bitfarms</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/bitf-stock-quote/"><strong>BITF</strong></a>) is a <strong>Bitcoin</strong> (<a href="https://investorplace.com/cryptocurrency/btc-usd/"><strong>BTC-USD</strong></a>) mining company based in Canada. </p>



<p>It&rsquo;s been enjoying greater revenues as the price of Bitcoin rose throughout 2023 and remains elevated in the first quarter of 2024, climbing to more than $61,000.</p>



<p>Bitfarms has 11 Bitcoin farms in production where it contributes its computational power in mining pools in exchange for payment in Bitcoin. The company generated 446 Bitcoin in December and another 357 in January. </p>



<p>The company, on average, generates 11.5 Bitcoins per day, which at today&rsquo;s prices is a daily revenue of $700,000.</p>



<p>It often sells all the Bitcoin it generates in the course of a month, but holds a treasury of more than 800 Bitcoin that gives it a reserve valued at $49 million.</p>



<p>With the price of Bitcoin up 46% in 2024, BITF stock is an intriguing buy, valued at less than $3 today. The stock is up 200% in the last 12 months and gets an &ldquo;A&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



<h2>Mama&rsquo;s Creations (MAMA)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/food-packaging-1600-300x169.png" alt="A photo of various food packaging containers."><div>Source: Pixel-Shot / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Mama&rsquo;s Creations</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mama-stock-quote/"><strong>MAMA</strong></a>) is a deli solutions company. It makes easy-to-prepare meals that are ideal for people who don&rsquo;t want to spend a lot of time cooking, but still want something tasty and good for them.</p>



<p>It operates various brands, including MamaMancini&rsquo;s, Creative Salads and The Olive Branch. More than 8,400 stores across the country carry its products, and the company recently launched its first direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform.</p>



<p>It completed its acquisition of Chef Inspirational Foods, a maker of prepackaged natural foods, and says that the product line will help Mama&rsquo;s Creations increase automation and improve margins.</p>



<p>Earnings for the third quarter included <a href="https://ir.mamascreations.com/mamas-creations-reports-third-quarter-fiscal-2024-financial-results/">revenue</a> of $28.7 million, up 11% from a year ago. Profits of $8.6 million and 5 cents per share were up from $6.6 million and 3 cents per share a year ago.</p>



<p>MAMA stock is up 167% in the last 12 months and gets an &ldquo;A&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



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



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/oil-tanker-1600-300x169.png" alt="Aerial front side view of oil tanker ship sailing on open sea, Imperial Petroleum (IMPP) operates oil tankers"><div>Source: Igor Karasi / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Overseas Shipholding Group</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/osg-stock-quote/"><strong>OSG</strong></a>) operates a fleet of two 21 oil tankers and oil tug barges that distribute crude oil and petroleum products.</p>



<p>Its fleet includes Suezmax crude oil tankers in Alaska, articulated tug barges, and as well as shuttle and conventional medium-range tankers.</p>



<p>In January, Overseas Shipholding <a href="https://www.osg.com/overseas-shipholding-group-confirms-receipt-of-unsolicited-indication-of-interest/">acknowledged</a> that privately held <strong>Saltchuk Resources</strong> inquired about purchasing all outstanding shares for $6.25 cash. OSG stock was at $5.90 and it&rsquo;s climbed about 20 cents since the announcement, so there is still some value to be had should the deal go through.</p>



<p>Saltchuk currently owns about 15 million shares of OSG stock, representing roughly a 21% stake in the company. </p>



<p>It previously announced an interest in buying OSG for $3 per share back in July 2021 but suspended discussions in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.</p>



<p>OSG stock is up 64% in the last 12 months and has an &ldquo;A&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



<h2>OppFi (OPFI)</h2>

<p>Most loans are short term, ranging from $500 to $4,000. And as more Americans are getting deep in credit card debt (currently, the nation holds roughly $1.13 trillion in credit card debt), there will probably be an increased need for OppFi&rsquo;s services as cash-strapped consumers look for a quick bailout to cover an unanticipated expense.</p>



<p>OppFi is scheduled to report fourth-quarter and full-year earnings on March 7. But in the third quarter, the company painted a <a href="https://investors.oppfi.com/news/press-releases/2023/OppFi-Reports-Third-Quarter-2023-Results-Raises-Full-Year-Earnings-Outlook/default.aspx">rosy outlook</a>, showing revenue increases of 7% in the third quarter and raising its outlook for the full year.</p>



<p>The company is expecting to show full-year revenue of $500 million to $520 million for its Affirm segment, which would be growth of more than 10% from last year. And it increased its expected earnings per share for the full year from a range of 34 cents to 41 cents to a range of 47 cents to 49 cents.</p>



<p>OPFI stock is up 67% in the last 12 months and gets an &ldquo;A&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



<h2>Optex Systems (OPXS)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/bank-lending-capital-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="hands at desk near laptop computer, with one hand holding a pile of hundred dollar bills.

<p>Its products are used in water and land military vehicles, including Abrams and Bradley fighting vehicles and light armored and security vehicles.</p>



<p>The company has a backlog of $45 million, an increase from $40.1 million a year ago. So, the orders keep coming in, providing a solid revenue stream.</p>



<p>OPXS recorded $6.96 million in <a href="https://ir.stockpr.com/optexsys/press-releases/detail/587/optex-systems-holdings-inc-announces-financial-highlights">revenue</a> in the fourth quarter, up 72.5% from a year ago. Profits of $1.6 million were up 134.9%.</p>



<p>OPXS stock appears to have a bright future, particularly as the U.S. military gears up for increased global tensions in the Middle East and with major powers such as Russia and China. OPXS is up 112% in the last year and gets an &ldquo;A&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



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

But that doesn&rsquo;t mean you should overlook it.</p>



<p>The company is a miner of uranium, used to fuel nuclear power plants and the nuclear reactors used to operate naval ships and submarines. The company controls one of the biggest uranium resources in the Western Hemisphere.</p>



<p>It has projects in Texas, Wyoming, New Mexico, Arizona, Canada and Paraguay.

OPXS Stock Earnings: Optex Systems Hldgs Reported Results for Q2 2024

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>It&rsquo;s always a good idea to fortify your portfolio with <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/blue-chip-stocks/">blue-chip stocks</a> &ndash; solid, dependable names that you can bank on to deliver each quarter. But you can&rsquo;t stop there. In order to diversify your portfolio and set yourself up for success, investors should also closely consider adding top stocks that cost under $10.</p>



<p>Most stocks that are priced at less than $10 are <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/growth-stocks/">growth stocks</a> that are looking to expand or scale their offerings. Investing in companies so early in their growth stories have often have more room for appreciation compared to higher-priced counterparts. </p>



<p>This is particularly true for firms in emerging industries or those undergoing restructuring and improvement.</p>



<p>As these companies grow and stabilize, their stock prices can increase substantially, providing oversized returns for early investors.</p>



<p>And then, of course, you have the advantage of buying more shares with your money. For example, with $1,000, you can buy over 100 shares of top stocks for under $10 each. But the same amount of money would only allow you to buy 10 shares of a stock priced at $100. </p>



<p>Owning more shares provides greater flexibility in managing your investment portfolio. You can sell a portion of your holdings to lock in profits or to rebalance your portfolio without having to liquidate your entire position.</p>



<p>We&rsquo;re using the Portfolio Grader to identify top stocks for under $10, based on analyst ratings, momentum, earnings history and growth. These low-priced stocks are among the best you can buy right now, and are ideal candidates to help you diversify your winning portfolio.</p>



<h2>SoundHound AI (SOUN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/soun1600-1-300x169.png" alt="In this photo illustration, the SoundHound logo seen displayed on a smartphone. SOUN stock"><div>Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>SoundHound AI</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/soun-stock-quote/"><strong>SOUN</strong></a>) is a voice recognition company that uses artificial intelligence to power its products. </p>



<p>It&rsquo;s no coincidence that SoundHound is actually incorporating &ldquo;AI&rdquo; in the company&rsquo;s name to capitalize on the keen investor interest in generative AI products today.</p>



<p>SoundHound products help vehicle owners understand their cars and trucks because it powers the technology to respond to verbal queries about vehicle features and information in the owner&rsquo;s manual.</p>



<p>SoundHound also works with restaurants to help power voice AI in more than 10,000 locations.</p>



<p>The stock was valued at nearly $9 per share earlier this year but pulled back following a <a href="https://capybararesearch.com/reports/SoundHound-AI-Fake-Revenue-Fake-Bookings-and-Fake-AI/">&ldquo;short report&rdquo;</a>&nbsp;issued by short selling firm Capybara Research on March 19.</p>



<p>But the company&rsquo;s <a href="https://investors.soundhound.com/news-releases/news-release-details/soundhound-ai-reports-73-q1-revenue-growth-116-million-first">earnings report for the first quarter</a> showed the company&rsquo;s growth spurt. Revenue of $11.5 million was up 73% from a year ago. </p>



<p>The growing company posted an operating loss of $19.8 million, or 7 cents per share, which was slightly worse than a year ago and reflects the company&rsquo;s recent purchase of SYNQ3, which closed during the quarter.</p>



<p>While losses are to be expected for a company that&rsquo;s scaling, I&rsquo;m optimistic that revenue will continue to increase. SoundHound issued full-year guidance calling for revenue to be in a range from $65 million to $77 million for the year.</p>



<p>SOUN stock is up 135% this year and gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



<h2>Elevation Oncology (ELEV)</h2>

<p>It currently has two candidates undergoing trials &mdash; for treating solid tumors in combination with immunotherapy and targeted agents for gastric, gastroesophageal junction, pancreatic and esophageal cancers.</p>



<p>The challenge for investing in biotech companies such as Elevation Oncology is that until the drugs pass successful trials, get approval from the Food and Drug Administration, and are successfully taken to market, there&rsquo;s no revenue to be had. </p>



<p>Bringing a drug to market is an expensive and risky proposition, but the rewards for investors can be immense if the therapies work.</p>



<p>But ELEV appears to be financially sound &ndash; it has <a href="https://investors.elevationoncology.com/2024-05-02-Elevation-Oncology-Reports-First-Quarter-2024-Financial-Results-and-Highlights-Recent-Business-Achievements">$104.1 million</a> in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, up from $83.1 million in the previous quarter. The company&rsquo;s ability to raise cash to offset its research and development gives it enough money to operate into 2026. And I&rsquo;m sure it will raise more money if needed.</p>



<p>ELEV stock started the year at less than $1 per share. The stock price is up more than 580% this year and it gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



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



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/bank-lending-capital-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="hands at desk near laptop computer, with one hand holding a pile of hundred dollar bills.

<p>With projects in Texas, Wyoming, New Mexico, Arizona, Canada and Paraguay, Uranium Energy controls some of the biggest uranium resources in the Western Hemisphere.</p>



<p>Those resources put Uranium Energy in an ideal position as Congress just approved a ban on Russian uranium imports. <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/05/13/russian-uranium-imports-ban/">On May 13</a>, President Biden signed the ban into law, affecting roughly $1 billion in annual imports into the U.S.</p>



<p>The U.S. plans to ask suppliers to bid next month on as much as <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-offer-3-4-billion-194826989.html">$3.4 billion in contracts for nuclear reactor fuel</a>, according to <em>Bloomberg</em>. Uranium Energy will seek to get some of that business.</p>



<p>UEC stock is up 10% in 2024 and gets an &ldquo;A&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



<h2>Cronos Group (CRON)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/cron_1600-300x169.jpg" alt="Don't Count on Altria to Keep the Price of Cronos Stock Propped Up"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Cronos Group</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/cron-stock-quote/"><strong>CRON</strong></a>) is a cannabis company that sells products under the Spinach, Peace Naturals and Lord Jones brands. </p>



<p>The company&rsquo;s major investor is <strong>Altria Group</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mo-stock-quote/"><strong>MO</strong></a>), which purchased a 45% stake in 2019.</p>



<p>And while federal regulation of marijuana hasn&rsquo;t come to fruition in as investors had hoped, the U.S. is making small, steady steps toward allowing everyday use of recreational marijuana. </p>



<p>The Justice Department published a proposed rule that would reclassify recreational marijuana as a <a href="https://apnews.com/article/marijuana-rescheduling-drug-policy-biden-15b43441670757b0c2bfa36731e47d07">less dangerous Schedule III substance</a>. And a new <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2024/05/23/marijuana-cannabis-alcohol-drinking-daily/">study</a> shows that daily marijuana use in the U.S. is more common than daily alcohol use.</p>



<p>Cronos sees some of that business as well. Revenue in the first quarter was $25.2 million, up 30% from a year ago. The company posted a net loss of $2.4 million, but that was much better than the $18 million loss it recorded a year ago.</p>



<p>CRON stock is up 26% this year and gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>
