In a prior podcast, Tracey looked at three stocks for your wish list but didn’t realize that all three were stocks priced around $1000 per share. A listener commented in the YouTube comments that it was a bit too pricey for them.
Therefore, this week, Tracey looked for top ranked #1 stocks that were priced under $10.
Let’s be honest, who doesn’t like to buy a stock that is under $10? And if you can get it with analysts revising earnings estimates higher, even better.
Screening for Strong Buys Under $10
This is an easy screen. Originally, Tracey looked for Zacks #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) stocks under $10, thinking there might not be that many stocks that matched that criteria but there were 155 stocks.
That is too big of a list.
Running it with just the #1 (Strong Buys) returned 17 stocks.
Several of them were foreign airlines. Given the Iran War and the concerns over the price of jet fuel, Tracey stayed away from those.
3 Strong Buy Stocks Under $10
1. Chatham Lodging Trust (CLDT - Free Report)

3. BCB Bancorp, Inc. (BCBP - Free Report)
BCB Bancorp is the holding company for BCB Community Bank. It has 23 bank offices in New Jersey. In the fourth quarter of 2025, BCB Bancorp took a $12 million loss due to a pre-tax write-down of $15.1 million on a cannabis related property and a $16.3 million write-off in the bank’s C&I loan portfolio. However, net interest margin (“NIM”) was 3.03%, up from 2.88% in the third quarter of 2025.
Shares of BCB Bancorp have fallen 16.6% over the last year but are flat for 2026. Earnings are expected to turn around in 2026, jumping 234.5% to $1.13 from a loss of $0.84 in 2025.
BCB Bancorp is cheap. It trades with a price-to-book (P/B) ratio of just 0.5. Bank analysts look at P/B ratios for valuation. They buy at 1.0 and sell at 2.0. BCB Bancorp is even cheaper than that.
It’s also shareholder friendly. BCB Bancorp pays a dividend of $0.32 annually, which is yielding 4%.
BCB Bancorp is a Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy).
Should a community bank like BCB Bancorp be on your short list?
