In recent days, a number of stocks in the penny stock space have been buzzing, and it would be a good time for investors to take a closer look into those. Here are four such stocks.
Clean Vision Corporation
CLNV: The company is involved in running a portfolio of synergistic companies involved in the sustainable green energy and clean technology sectors. On September 26, the Chief Executive Officer of Clean Vision Corporation, Dan Bates, went on ‘The Street Reports Podcast’ and provided an overview of the company.
He started off the podcast by stating that the company would make a significant contribution towards addressing the global plastic pollution problem. Another important thing that Bates spoke about in addition to the company’s overarching goals was the $1.75 million in funding that it had received for its facility in West Virginia.
On September 7, Clean Vision Corporation announced that it had been awarded a forgivable loan worth $1.75 million in line with the Memorandum of Understanding that it had signed with the West Virginia Department of Economic Development on June 1, 2023. As per the terms of the agreement, the company would have to employ at least 40 people in three years for the loan to be forgiven.
In the news release, the company noted that the non-dilutive form of financing would be vital for the company to speed up the eventual launch of its path-breaking plastic waste to a circular fuel plant located in Quincy, Virginia. A subsidiary of Clean Vision, Clean Seas West Virginia Inc., would be responsible for working on a project to address the global problem of plastic pollution. Through its innovative process, plastic feedstock is turned into sustainable fuel. The fuel would be used in the plastic manufacturing industry and promote the circular economy.
Houston Natural Resources Corporation

Hence, the company was looking into mining opportunities in the copper and lithium spaces, Kristan noted.

The transaction realized $0.15 per share. In the news release, Houston Natural Resources Corporation noted that the transaction had helped it make strong progress toward its objectives.
