This week's five top penny stocks all have strong momentum as the new year begins, with all five climbing at least 20% last week. One climbed more than 50% last week alone.
Every week, we give readers a penny stock list that tracks the top-performing penny stocks on the market. As a reminder, these lists serve only as a tracking feature. Although many of these stocks frequently post double- and triple-digit gains, this doesn't mean we're recommending them as penny stocks to buy. That's because penny stock investing can be risky, and gains can quickly turn into losses.
However, as a bonus today, we're showing readers how they can access a 90-page guide about investing in an emerging industry that's poised to grow to $35 billion by 2020. This bonus investment guide also includes many worthwhile penny stock investments.
