Key points:

- The company is still in danger of being delisted from the Nasdaq.
- SNTG did not file its annual and quarterly reports on time.
The Sentage Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: SNTG) stock price soared 64% despite a lack of news adding to yesterday’s gains. The stock rose 24% during yesterday’s trading session in what looks like a standard pump and dump.
The lack of news releases from the company indicates that the recent rally was mainly driven by investor sentiment, which explains today’s rally since over 4.8 million SNTG shares had changed hands at the time of writing.

The last significant announcement from the company was regarding a non-compliance notice from the Nasdaq in May after it failed to file its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Such notifications are usually a red flag about a company since it means that the company does not have its financial reporting in order, which is a crucial component for any business, especially a public company that has to adhere to the strict financial reporting rules set by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Therefore, I would be very cautious of the latest rally in Sentage stock since the company is having trouble with its bookkeeping and financial reporting based on the rules set for public companies. In addition, the company is at risk of being delisted, which is enough reason for me to steer clear of its stock.
However, short-term traders who do not care much about company fundamentals may still buy SNTG stock to capitalise on the intraday price swings and rallies that could generate decent profits if one trades a sizeable number of shares.
