Hot Penny Stocks on The Move

A list of publicly traded penny stocks that have made the biggest moves over the last 5 days.
Sun, Feb 22nd, 2026

A penny stock, also known as an OTC or Over-the-Counter stock, typically references a stock that trades for less than $5 per share. Penny stocks are often extremely high risk but can potentially offer extremely high rewards, so buyers need to perform their due diligence. Fortunately, Barchart’s Hot Penny Stocks list can serve as a solid jumping-off point for investors. This page displays the best penny stocks making the biggest moves over the last 5 days. Sorted by 5-day percent change, and with a 5-day average volume greater than the 20-day average volume, these penny stocks are showing a consistent pattern in trading volume and price activity over the last week.
