Highlights

  • The TSXV has a variety of junior stocks to offer to retail investors in Canada.
  • com is involved in the acquisition and management of leading software companies.
  • New Found Gold is engaged in exploring gold properties in the Canadian provinces like Ontario.

The stock market has remained volatile since the beginning of this year. Initially, the volatility was due to the outbreak of the omicron variant of the coronavirus and later due to the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Despite the volatility, stock markets never fail to attract traders, and on that note, we have shortlisted some lightweights of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Let's take a look at them:

Topicus.com Inc (TSXV:TOI)

Topicus.com is involved in acquiring and managing leading software companies and providing software to corporate and public sector companies.

According to Refinitiv data, the technology company's Relative Strength Index (RSI) value is 37.3. On April 29, the TOI stock had declined by 1.1 per cent and closed at C$ 79.9 per share.

Some analysts believe that an RSI value of 30 or less represents an oversold stock condition. However, the TOI stock doesn't appear to be witnessing that condition.

If the technology sector surges in future, the stock could reach the level of an uptrend, which is often considered above the RSI value of 40.

Partners Value Investments LP (TSXV:PVF.UN)

The company's balance sheet displayed cash and cash equivalents worth US$ 80.7 million, and the market capitalization of Partners Value is C$ 5.4 billion.

Alphamin Resources Corp. (TSXV:AFM)

The junior metals and mining company is involved in producing and selling tin concentrate and has business operations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Over the past few weeks, the base metals sector has performed well overall, and on April 29, the AFM stock had climbed 0.7 per cent and closed at C$ 1.39 apiece.
