Unleashing Potential: A Deep Dive into Emerging Small Cap Opportunities (PRLD, OLB, BCLI, LRE, ADIL)
10/13/20246 min read


Each week, we dive deep into emerging market catalysts, hunting for the next small-cap stock primed for a breakout. Our focus is on five standout small-cap stocks, identified through key indicators such as resistance level breaks, sudden volume surges, and consolidation patterns.
Prelude Therapeutics Incorporated (NASDAQ: PRLD) - Prelude Therapeutics Incorporated shares closed last week at $1.95, up nearly 1%. In August, the company provided updates on its clinical development pipeline and corporate initiatives. Dr. Huang stated, “Building on the progress of PRT2527, our selective CDK9 inhibitor, we plan to present interim Phase 1 clinical data, potentially showcasing a best-in-class safety profile, in the fourth quarter of this year.” PRT2527 is on track to complete monotherapy dose escalation for B-cell malignancies by the end of 2024, with dose escalation in myeloid malignancies having commenced in the first half of the year. Prelude also highlighted significant progress in its SMARCA2 degrader program. The lead candidate, PRT7732, recently received IND authorization from the FDA and is expected to enter Phase 1 clinical trials in the second half of 2024. Additionally, the company announced three abstract publications on its SMARCA degrader programs for presentation at the 36th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium in Barcelona, Spain, from October 23-25, 2024. CEOKris Vaddi, Ph.D., shared excitement about the company’s developments: “Alongside updates from our Phase 1 trial of PRT3789, we are eager to present the first preclinical data from our precision degrader antibody conjugates program. These findings show that a dual SMARCA2/4 degrader payload can be conjugated to an antibody, targeting tumor cells effectively and inducing tumor regression in preclinical models. This approach offers the potential to replace traditional chemotherapy payloads on ADCs and broaden therapeutic applications beyond SMARCA4-mutated cancers.” Investors will be watching closely for further updates, particularly signs of a breakout above $2.10 with increased trading volume.

The OLB Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: OLB) - The OLB Group, Inc. shares closed last week slightly down, finishing at $2.31 just under a 1% decline. In June, the company issued an open letter to shareholders from Chairman and CEO Ronny Yakov. "Merchant payment services remain our core business and the foundation of our custom-developed applications, which continue to be our greatest competitive advantage," Yakov stated. As part of this strategy, OLB has started integrating point-of-sale systems and merchant onboarding tools into the Black011.com portal. The company is also expanding its sports ticketing network to include minor league baseball teams and stadiums. OLB has already partnered with eight teams, with more customer agreements expected to be announced upon signing. The company’s omni-commerce platform, ShopFast™, offers seamless service across online, in-store, and mobile channels. It is fully integrated with advanced technologies, including mobile commerce capabilities, fraud prevention tools, and 3D Secure protocols. OLBPay™, the company’s billing and invoicing platform, will incorporate AI-powered features to enhance invoice prediction and fraud prevention. It is scheduled for launch in the fourth quarter of 2024. In August, the company announced plans to spin off DMINT into an independent entity, with the process expected to be completed within the next 12 months. Once the spin-off is finalized, the capital expenses associated with the Bitcoin Mining Segment will no longer impact the company’s financials. As a standalone entity, DMINT will seek to raise capital through either the issuance of equity or loans backed by its assets, including its property in Selmer, Tennessee, and Bitcoin mining equipment. As we await further updates, we will be monitoring for increased trading volume and a potential breakout above the $2.45-$2.50 resistance level.
