First the company issued a press release before the opening bell detailing news that its key subsidiary North American Crane Bureau Group has created a new training program involving Tesla (Nasdaq: TSLA), Marathon (NYSE: MRO) and BAE Systems (OTC: BASEY). According to the release, “These programs consists of onsite training for crane operators, inspectors, rigging personnel and signal personnel and lift equipment trainers within these organizations. In addition, these engagements are long term training arrangements that are expected be replicated throughout their corporate footprint. With the loosening of restrictions that resulted from Covid-19, many corporations are scrambling to become compliant with OSHA safety standards, crane inspections and crane operator training and recertification.

I have no position in PBYA and am not trading it. Without SEC filings it is too speculative for me, even though there is potential in the right small cap penny stocks. If you our top stock pick for the month subscribe to the free WallStreetWindow morning stock trading updates by clicking here.
