VSee Health, Dermata Therapeutics, and Exicure, Inc. are the 3 Penny Stocks to watch on August 6, based on TipRanks’ Penny Stock Screener tool. Penny stocks are defined as stocks that trade at or below $5 per share and have a market capitalization of below $300 million.

The Penny Stock Screener helps investors scan stocks based on numerous parameters, including Sector, Price Target Upside, Smart Score, Analyst Consensus, Dollar Volume, and Price Change.

We leveraged the tool to pick the top three penny stocks with the highest Dollar Volume as of the close on August 5, 2024. Simply put, Dollar Volume is the number of shares traded on a particular day multiplied by the day’s share price. We can also look at the Relative Volume and Average Volume (last 3 months) to gauge how the trading volumes have been very high (showing high interest) compared to the average.

VSee Health (VSEE) – VSee Health is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) provider that enables clinicians and enterprises to build customizable workflow streams and enhance patient care.

On August 5, VSEE had a Dollar Volume of $201.64 million, with its stock price crashing 37.2%. The decline marked a reversal from the rally witnessed on Friday. On August 1, VSee Health announced a partnership with Ava Robotics to develop an intelligent robot for the inpatient intensive care unit (ICU). The robot will enable physicians to have virtual access to patients and staff for consulting and help make on-time treatment decisions. In reaction to the news, VSEE shares skyrocketed over 74% on Friday, reaching intraday highs of over 160%.
