We recently published a list of 10 Cheapest Stocks Insiders Are Buying Recently. In this article, we are going to take a look at where My City Builders, Inc. (OTCPK:MYCB) stands against the other cheap stocks insiders are buying recently.
Why should we be interested in affordable stocks? Some investors like to look for cheaper stocks in order to diversify their portfolios, because these penny stocks often operate in different industries than larger businesses.
Some investors’ strategy is finding nascent companies with strong growth potential, which can bring high returns once the companies have grown. Even though penny stocks often carry higher risks and are more prone to market volatility, they also offer investors more room for growth.
What are some ways to assess cheap stocks that are worth investing in? While there’s no single simple or complicated rule that investors can follow to achieve secure results, some strategies can help. One strategy is to keep track of insider trading activity. Insiders or, in other words, people in high positions within companies, such as CEOs, CFOs, directors and other executives have valuable insights into the company’s strategic moves, plans, and initiatives. A CEO’s investment in a company’s stock can sometimes signal strong confidence in the company’s future.
While both insider selling and buying can be driven by various motives, it is important to consider these moves within the broader context of the company’s fundamentals, industry trends, and overall market conditions. That’s why due diligence before any investment is of the utmost importance. However, insider trading activity in combination with other relevant determinants can offer valuable insights into a company’s capabilities, helping investors make more informed investment decisions.

Also, smaller companies do not attract as much attention from analysts compared to larger companies. Furthermore, the company is traded over-the-counter (OTC), which makes it less visible to investors. OTC stocks also tend to have lower trading volumes compared to those on major exchanges, such as NYSE and NASDAQ.
