4 Great Stocks Under $10 You Can Buy Right Now

NYSE: WIT | Wipro Limited  News, Ratings, and Charts

WIT – The stock market is on a winning streak, with the benchmark S&P 500 index recording fresh highs for seven straight months. Given surging investor confidence and strong economic recovery, we think fundamentally sound low-priced stocks Wipro (WIT), Turkcell (TKC), Amarin (AMRN), and Loma Negra (LOMA) could be solid bets now. So, let’s examine these names.

September began on a positive note as global stock markets scaled new highs. MSCI’s all-country world index climbed to its fourth intraday high in a row. Decelerating economic growth and rising COVID-19 cases have been offset by a solid vaccination drive and booster-shot approvals, continuing ultra-loose monetary policy, and substantial federal investments in vital sectors.

The benchmark S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite indexes hit their all-time highs on September 2, reflecting bullish market sentiment.

The benchmark S&P 500 index registered gains for the seventh straight month in August. Given this backdrop, we believe fundamentally sound stocks Wipro Limited (WIT), Turkcell Iletisim Hizmetleri A.S. (TKC), Amarin Corporation plc (AMRN), and Loma Negra Compañía Industrial Argentina S.A. ADR (LOMA), which are currently trading at less than $10, could be solid bets now.
