Most Actives Under $5.00 Lagging the Horsemen by Far (Nov. 29, 2006)

As far as where the NASDAQ trading volume interest is, it isn’t even close.  The Horsemen stocks are chugging along at almost twice the share volume of the smaller cap traditional most active names under or around $5.00.

Apple (AAPL) is the only one down on the day, and that just may be some profit taking as Wall Street analysts have been ratcheting up their price targets the last few days.

In truth, traders and investors will always go after small and microcap stocks if they think there is money to be made.  But right now they are focusing their efforts either in mega-caps or in other small cap or low-priced stocks.  It is possible that some of the low price stock volume is in COMS today, but that is actually selling volume rather than buying.
