News can play a huge role in the world of investing. The news provides investors with important information that can influence investors decisions. The perception that investors have of a specific business, sector, or market can also be impacted by news.
In other words, news stories have the power to mold and sway the sentiments and beliefs people have about a stock, which can affect their decision to buy or sell.
This is because news stories can often be a catalyst for movement in the stock market. Investors are always searching for news in an attempt to gauge the market. This is valid for penny stocks and OTC markets, where businesses frequently release information that is essential to the performance of the stock but may not receive as much coverage.
Let's take a look at four OTC penny stocks with recent news for investors to put on their watchlist.
Viking Energy Group, Inc. (OTC: VKIN) is a growth-oriented, diversified energy company. Viking provides custom energy and power solutions to commercial and industrial clients in North America through a number of majority-owned subsidiaries. Viking Energy Group also holds an exclusive license in Canada for a patented carbon capture system.
In addition, the company also owns a majority interest in entities with intellectual property rights to a fully developed, ready-for-market proprietary Medical & Biohazard Waste Treatment System using Ozone Technology and an Open Conductor Detection System designed for power grid use.
VKIN made headlines on January 31 when it announced an update to its medical waste treatment technology. Viking Ozone Technology, LLC, the company's majority-owned subsidiary, was granted U.S. Utility Patent No. 11,565,289 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
The patent is titled "Multi-Chamber Medical Waste Ozone-Based Treatment Systems and Methods." VKIN states that a related international application is in the works, and in the near future, a few nations will be chosen for national phase coverage. The company believes that the approval of this US patent application will result in the issuance of additional related patents in other countries.
This utility patent relates to Viking Ozone's proprietary methods and devices utilizing ozone-based treatments for biohazardous waste. Viking expects to use this technology in waste treatment and disposal systems, such as those used in hospitals, prisons, laboratories, military bases, and care facilities.
The global medical waste management market was valued at $7,226.4 million in 2020 and is projected to reach $12,834.9 million by 2030, with a CAGR of 5.8% from 2021 to 2030.
According to the World Health Organization, managing medical waste requires greater diligence and care in order to avoid negative health effects. As the demand for medical waste grows, it is critical to prioritize waste treatment and disposal options that are both safe and environmentally responsible.
VKIN is leading the market with their revolutionary patent and should be at the top of any savvy investor's watchlist.
