Most people think you need to be rich to make big money in the stock market. But what if all it took was spotting the right stock at the right time and investing just $1,000? While you might try to strike it big with well-known names like Apple, Tesla or Amazon, there are smaller companies that put up incredible returns.

Take a look at three high-performing “unknown” stocks over the past five years. If you had invested just $1,000 in each, you’d be sitting on over $230,000 right now. Let’s break down the three silent winners and what made them explode.
Note that these stocks were available at very low prices because they were “penny stocks” that were only available as an Over-The-Counter (OTC) stock. You must use a broker that supports OTC trades to invest in stocks like these.
Kolobri Energy Inc. (KGEI) is a small oil and energy company located in Oklahoma. Previously known as BNK Petroleum Inc., the company owns and operates Caney Shale oil wells — extracting crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids from the wells.
The stock took off in early 2022 and has since skyrocketed from less than $0.10 per share, to over $7 per share. If you’d dropped just $1,000 into Kolibri five years ago, you’d be sitting on over $100 grand today. KGEI has returned 10,429% in the last 5 years alone. This would have turned your $1,000 investment into $105,290!
Kolibri stock has already had a massive upside move, but there is still room for continued growth. The stock still has a relatively low price-to-earnings ratio (around 12), and continues to grow revenue year-over-year.
Never heard of Viewbix? You’re not alone. Viewbix Inc. is a smaller Israeli-based digital advertising platform that focuses on providing solutions for clients through search and digital content. This Ad-tech company stock was only available as an OTC stock until recently, when it was listed on the Nasdaq under ticker symbol VBIX.
If you were buying OTC stocks back in 2020, you’d have been able to pick up this stock for around $0.05 per share. The company stock was relatively flat until late 2022, when it shot up from around $0.08 per share to over $3 per share within a year. It now sits around $4.50 per share, which is a 6,917% increase since 2020!
If you invested $1,000 in Viewbix Inc. 5 years ago, you’d have around $70,170 today. And now that the company has listed on the Nasdaq exchange, there’s more potential growth. Just keep an eye on revenue, which has been declining in recent years. Plus the company has yet to turn a profit, so proceed with caution.
