Wall Street continued to rally on Friday, concluding the best week since July, with the S&P 500 adding about 1.8%. The OTCQX Composite, which tracks over 400 OTC stocks, has also been bullish and bounced back from the lowest since July.The earnings season started with some upbeat data, which improved investor sentiment. While we don’t expect another February craze right now, it’s good to see the market reviving after some bearish weeks.Meanwhile, the US reported positive retail sales data, with sales at stores, restaurants, and other retail establishments increasing 0.7% last month from August instead of declining, as economists forecast.Sameer Samana, a senior global market strategist at Wells Fargo Investment Institute, said:
“We saw retail sales this morning come in pretty strong. Stocks are still at pretty reasonable valuations with another earnings season having just ticked on, and thus far at least, some pretty good results.”
Previously, stocks declined on worries about high inflation and the surging number of COVID cases caused by the Delta variant.Now that the Fed’s plan to reduce its bond-buying program has already been priced in, stocks are free to go higher, and we’re focused on identifying the best OTC stock opportunities.

OTC STOCK #1 ALPP
Last week, we reported that Alpine 4 Holdings, Inc was rallying on expectations that the OTCQB stock would soon get uplisted on NASDAQ. The company announced on Thursday that its application had been approved. The stock has extended the rally, gaining over 40% since last week and doubling in price since mid-September. Now you can buy ALPP for $4.70, but there is still much room for growth.The share price peaked in February at over $8 and has consistently declined since then, but it recently broke above the resistance line of the bearish trend after bottoming out on September 30 when it fell to the YTD low near $2.20.ALPP has been a great success for our subscribers. We first paid attention to this stock in February 2020, when the share price was just $.075 a share.ALPP owns and acquires businesses that fit into its disruptive DSF business model of Drivers, Stabilizers, and Facilitators. It provides electronic contract manufacturing solutions in the US. The company also offers automotive technologies, including 6th Sense Auto and BrakeActive.The company also provides fabricated metal parts, assemblies, and sub-assemblies to original equipment manufacturers.

OTC STOCK #2 APTY
APT Systems, Inc has been on the rise, increasing by over 30% since last week. The company is about to obtain the Pink Current status as it filed the financial reports and presented the Attorney Letter. APTY peaked on Thursday at $0.0287, which is the highest in about five years. The share price has almost doubled since we reported on APTY for the first time in June.The $66 million software development and fintech company is working on a trading platform, a gold and USD-backed stablecoin, and payments and escrow infrastructure, among others.Earlier this month, the company provided some updates on the development of its Verifundr, an escrow services ecosystem powered by blockchain. The platform will allow participants to transfer dollars, store funds in escrow in order to bind contracts, and later pay others from the credited funds anywhere in the US.APTY President and CEO said:
“An elite team of digital strategists is working on Verifundr to build the visual interface that coincides with our technical documentation. The visual interpretation places a user-friendly frontend on our powerful escrow service which is designed to transfer US dollars or our Spera stablecoin to complete transactions.”
The platform employs smart contracts, which are blockchain-based, self-executing programs that can settle agreements between two or multiple parties without the need for a centralized authority.In its latest quarterly report, APTY said that it had focused on building a financial ecosystem around escrow and trading services that would be backed with a true stablecoin called Spera (SRA). The goal is to provide a trusted ecosystem and stablecoin to support buyers and sellers while reducing friction and fraud in financial transactions. Besides developing Verifundr, APTY is also rewriting the whitepaper for Spera to incorporate gold as partially backing the stablecoin along with the USD.Meanwhile, APTY operates two active businesses:
- SNAPT Games Inc – the management likes graphic techniques used in the gaming industry and decided to selectively introduce these to its financial platforms and charting tools. Still, the company has not generated any significant revenues from the release of any SNAPT Games apps to date.
- AUREX Trading and Recovery Inc – this division accepts and processes electronic scrap for recovering precious metals and to help ensure that computers, phones, and other electronic equipment do not end up in landfills.
APTY is almost Pink Current and ready to go higher. Be prepared for an ambitious bullish move once the company launches its blockchain-based platform and stablecoin.https://twitter.com/Bjones955/status/1449216816862175232
OTC STOCK #3 PJET
Priority Aviation, Inc is another OTC stock trading at the highest level in many years. PJET has surged by 174% since mid-September to trade at $0.027. We drew attention to PJET at the end of September when the price was fluctuating near $0.017.On Thursday, the company said that it had redirected its business operations and plans to announce the new business direction next week. It will provide details on the work that has been underway for the last year on building the new business. The new business direction announcement is scheduled for Thursday, October 21, 2021.The company’s name stems from the previous jet leasing business. Subsequently, the company acquired a cannabis business but never reached critical mass.Recently, the majority shareholder of PJET, ACI Conglomerated, has decided on a new business direction outside the cannabis industry. ACI is also the majority shareholder of North American Cannabis Holdings, Inc. (OTCPK: USMJ) and Puration, Inc (OTCPK: PURA). With two businesses already in the cannabis marketplace, ACI is diversifying with PJET.PJET said:
“The company is developing a technology solution to serve a global and underserved marketplace. The company is also in discussions to acquire a physical asset that will be used to test, refine, and demonstrate the technology currently under development while generating revenue at the same time.”
PJET got the Pink Current status, has a new website, and is ready to adopt a new business that will surely add value to its $20 million cap, so we’re very bullish at this point. PJET is a discount entry opportunity at these levels.
