4 OTC Stocks on the Rise: GVSI ILUS INQD PBYA

The US economy continues with its recovery path despite the increase of new COVID-19 cases caused by the Delta variant. Despite the plummeting consumer sentiment that fell to the lowest in a decade, US Fed chief Jerome Powell said Tuesday that it remained unclear whether the Delta outbreak would have a noticeable impact on the economy.

“COVID is still with us ... and that is likely to continue to be the case for a while, but people and businesses have improvised and learned to adapt to live their lives despite COVID,” he said.

Meanwhile, production at US factories rose last month, driven by an acceleration in vehicle output. The Fed said that manufacturing output surged 1.4% in July after falling 0.3% in June. Economists expected manufacturing production to increase by 0.6%.The overall picture of the US economy looks promising, and this is a great time to invest in stock markets, especially in penny stocks, which provide greater return potential.
