One of today’s biggest market movers is a little-known penny stock that is experiencing astronomical gains. MultiMetaVerse (NASDAQ:MMV) has surged more than 125% in just a few hours of trading. After spending month after month gradually trending downward, this entertainment stock certainly needed a catalyst. Unfortunately, it hasn’t gotten one today, as there is no company-specific news pushing MMV stock up.

Rather, this sudden surge is likely due to meme stock momentum. As InvestorPlace writer William White reports:

“[Investors] will note that MMV is experiencing heavy trading on Monday morning. This has more than 9.9 million shares of the stock changing hands as of this writing. That’s well above its daily average trading volume of about 69,000 shares. It’s also worth mentioning that MMV’s float is about 7.34 million shares.”

This raises a few questions. Is MMV the newest meme stock sensation? And if so, for how long can this momentum continue? This warrants a closer look at the company that is receiving so much attention today.

On Penny Stocks and Low-Volume Stocks: With only the rarest exceptions, InvestorPlace does not publish commentary about companies that have a market cap of less than $100 million or trade less than 100,000 shares each day. That’s because these “penny stocks” are frequently the playground for scam artists and market manipulators. If we ever do publish commentary on a low-volume stock that may be affected by our commentary, we demand that InvestorPlace.com’s writers disclose this fact and warn readers of the risks.
