4 Low Float Penny Stocks to Buy in April

low float penny stocks

Low float penny stocks are more susceptible to volatility compared to large float stocks. As a result, they are likely to make significant swings if there is a positive movement. The float of stocks is the number of shares that are available for trading on the public market. Since institutional investors and insiders don’t trade their shares daily, their shares do not count in a stock’s short-term liquidity.

Therefore, a stock’s float is the number of available shares for public trading after accounting for institutional and insider ownership. Low float penny stocks will be those whose float is less than 15 million available shares for public trading. This means that it can be hard to find buyers and sellers, which usually results in low volume. Short covering in low float penny stocks can easily lead to a surge in demand, thus triggering a short squeeze, which can cause an imbalance between demand and supply. This imbalance can then act as a trigger for price movement. Here are 4 low float penny stocks to watch:
