Markets are fired up this week, and this augmented-reality stock looks poised to explode. Here's why it's my top watch today. | TODAY'S TOP ALERT! | Vuzix Corp (Nasdaq: VUZI) | | 👉 VUZI is TODAY'S #1 ALERT 👈 | Happy Monday, Folks, | Another quick reminder that this is a short trading week — the action stops on Thursday at 1:00 pm EST — so make your moves while you can! | In my email last night, I mentioned that one of the few big anxieties on investors' minds this week was President Trump's termination of trade talks with Canada. | Later in the night, we learned that Canada had withdrawn its digital-services tax, leading the President to agree to resume talks. | As expected, stock futures are up this morning, and I'm optimistic the markets will have a solid week heading into Independence Day. | I'm kicking things off with a "tactical trade" idea I've alerted several times recently… | Each time, the stock made a double-digit intraday move. My most recent alert — on May 29 — saw a nearly 20% intraday move. | Really, I was just riding the tremendous momentum the stock has had since April 7. It's now up more than 90% since its low that day. | Go ahead and pull up Vuzix Corporation (VUZI) on your favorite trading platform. | You'll see that the stock actually rose significantly in early June and has since pulled back, consolidating around $2.70, very close to where it is at this morning. | This is exactly what we want to see, given that the stock more than doubled from mid-May to early June. It suggests profit-taking rather than trend reversal. | $2.70 has emerged as a key support level – it has been tested multiple times but held each time so far. | On the other hand, I'm watching for VUZI to break past $3.00 again — its recent resistance level as well as important psychological resistance — and then I will be keenly watching its June high of $3.50. | If that happens, we'll truly be off to the races. | The S&P 500 and Nasdaq reached record highs on Friday, suggesting that risk appetite is strong. That's great for small stocks like VUZI, and I'm watching for that momentum to carry it higher today. | 👉 VUZI is TODAY'S #1 ALERT 👈 | Here's why I think this one is on a tear right now… | Recently, Mark Zuckerberg has been making headlines like this: | | "AR" stands for "augmented reality," which is an overlay of digital information such as text, images, or videos onto the real-world environment. | Zuck thinks AR smart glasses will be the "next major tech platform" and could well replace the smartphone, or at least supplement it in the same way smartwatches do. | He's been making the rounds talking about his company's prototype smart glasses — called "Orion" — as the likely facewear for the job. | The trouble is, he has also been making headlines like this: | | Other reviewers have admitted the glasses "don't make you look cool—you look like someone wearing tech on your face." | I'll spare you a photo, but trust me, these reviewers are spot on. | VUZI is widely considered the first mover in the smart glasses space, and has already produced frames that are indistinguishable from popular styles of Ray-Bans or Oakleys. | The company is a designer and manufacturer of smart glasses and augmented reality (AR) technologies for the enterprise, medical, defense, and consumer markets. | Unlike Meta's gaudy Orion glasses or Apple's new Vision Pro goggles, VUZI produces subtle, lightweight glasses that can be worn comfortably all day long, and that don't make the user look like a cyborg. |  | Vuzix's Z100 smart glasses. |
| VUZI has been around since 1997, and because of its status as the "first mover" in the smart glasses space, it holds 400+ patents and pending patents on critical technologies such as waveguides, mechanical packaging, and optical systems. | Waveguides are thin optics that are fully transparent but that guide light waves along specific paths so a user can see overlays on the real-world scene. | Vuzix's waveguide-equipped glasses can pair with a cell phone via WiFi or Bluetooth, enabling limitless applications. | Already, its glasses are used in healthcare, manufacturing, and field service. They're used by the hearing-impaired and for real-time language translation. | But with the dawn of artificial intelligence, the potential of VUZI's glasses has exploded. | As a Forbes writer put it in a profile on VUZI, "Given enough time, something assuredly will supplant the smartphone someday… and it's not a bad bet to believe wearables, AI, and AR will band together to lead the revolution towards a new regime." | Over the years, the company has subcontracted for Raytheon, contracted with DARPA, received a $25 million investment from Intel, and partnered with BlackBerry. | Today, it boasts substantial investments from the likes of Blackrock and Vanguard. | In 2023, VUZI cut the ribbon on its state-of-the-art waveguide manufacturing facility in Rochester, New York, which can produce as many as one million waveguides per year in its current configuration, and there is additional room for expansion. | With tariff news filling the airwaves, this domestic production is a significant advantage (not to mention its importance for defense contracting). | Unlike the expensive silicon carbide lenses that boost Meta's Orion prototypes to about $10,000 per pair, VUZI's lenses are vastly less expensive. | For instance, the Z100 smart glasses pictured above retail for just $499.99. | VUZI's press releases over the last several months reveal it has many very hot irons in the fire that could ramp up revenues dramatically. | In May 2024, the company announced a "multi-phase development contract with Garmin for next generation nano-imprinted waveguide-based display system." | The next month, it revealed a Smart Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase I contract from the Air Force to "begin developing and supplying innovative waveguide and [head-mounted display] capabilities." | Then, in September, it had a major development with a $20M investment from Quanta Computer, a global Fortune 500 company with more than $43.8 billion in revenue in 2024. | $10 million of that investment arrived on September 16 in above-market share purchases, and a second, $5 million tranche hit just two weeks ago after VUZI hit production targets. | Here are some other highlights from recent news releases: | November 25: Announced "the receipt of a six-figure revenue production order for customized waveguides" from a "leader in technologically advanced and intelligent solutions for the global aerospace and defense industry." December 2: Received a follow-on order for its Vuzix M400™ smart glasses from the Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). December 18: Shipped an initial six-figure order from Augmex, "a one-stop-shop solutions provider for increasing productivity with smart glasses." February 3: Revealed AugmentOS, "a universal operating system designed for smart glasses, including the Vuzix Z100™" that "combines cutting-edge AI functionality with a revolutionary development platform." Its features include "real-time captions, instant translation, proactive AI assistance, smart notifications, AI dashboards, and language learning tools." February 24: Fulfilled a six-figure follow-on production order from "a major U.S.-based defense contractor known for its advanced aerospace and defense solutions." February 27: "TranscribeGlass, a Connecticut-based company specializing in real-time speech-to-text transcription solutions, today announced the launch of their AI-powered transcription service using Vuzix Z100™ smart glasses." March 12: Xander, a company that uses augmented reality to enhance in-person conversations, placed its largest re-order to that date for Vuzix Shield™ smart glasses. March 14: VUZI subsidiary Moviynt "secured a hardware and software deployment commitment from Airbus Helicopters, the helicopter manufacturing division of Airbus." April 1: Announced a $500k smart glasses reorder from Augmex. April 29: Huge news of VUZI's acquisition of a seven-figure advanced waveguide R&D facility in Milpitas, California, right in the heart of Silicon Valley. The facility, "previously operated by a global technology leader known for its extensive work in software, AI, and augmented reality, will now serve as a key waveguide tools development and innovation hub for Vuzix and its ODM/OEM customers' next-generation AI-driven smart glasses." This is a big deal for a company that's looking to market its critical tech — protected by 400+ patents and pending patents — to Silicon Valley bigwigs. April 30: VUZI revealed a six-figure waveguide production order from a European OEM for "next gen enterprise thermal smart glasses." The glasses deliver "real-time thermal overlays directly into the user's field of view … with potential applications in firefighting, electrical diagnostics, industrial inspection, search and rescue, and outdoor operations such as hunting or HVAC maintenance."

| The company expects "volume production" of the thermal smart glasses to begin in the fall for "one of the world's largest contract electronics manufacturers." | May 16: VUZI "acknowledged a public post made by Amazon on LinkedIn, which highlighted the use of Vuzix smart glasses to enhance warehouse operations." Evidently the retail giant is using VUZI glasses to enable "central experts to virtually diagnose and resolve complex equipment issues in real time." May 27: VUZI announced it would be added back to the Russell 2000 after the market open on June 27. June 28: A Yahoo! Finance article highlighted VUZI's two recent partnerships "aimed at strengthening the use of AI and augmented reality (AR) in frontline applications." The partnerships are with AI startup Ramblr and spatial computing company Sphere Technology Holdings.
| VUZI is a company that's clearly on the move. It's no wonder this article was featured on Yahoo! Finance: | | As you do your own research, have a look at the company's slick website and this presentation from its June 17 annual shareholders meeting. | You should also want to check out its Q1 earnings release and the earnings call transcript. | And of course, always approach your trading in a responsible manner. Trading is very risky, and nothing is ever guaranteed, so never trade with more than you can afford to lose. | Please read the full disclaimer at the bottom of this email as well, so you are aware of additional risks and considerations. Always have a well-thought-out game plan that takes your personal risk tolerance into consideration. | Bottom line: VUZI has dramatically outpaced the S&P 500's recovery, and is up more than 90% from its April 7 low. | And that's even after its recent consolidation. The stock has a strong base now, and I'm watching it today to see if we get another liftoff. | Keep VUZI at the very top of your radar to see if it breaks out! | To Your Success, | | | | Questions or concerns about our products?

Make sure you check out our full disclosure down below for the details on how we were paid, the risks, and why these results aren't what you'd call "typical." | Just a quick heads up about this ad you're reading—as we've said, even though we like the company referenced above, and all the facts we discussed above are true to the best of our knowledge, we are running a business here. To distribute this information and help offset the costs of maintaining our large digital audience, in advance of writing the content above, we were paid twenty five thousand dollars (cash) from Sica Media for advertising Vuzix Corporation for a one day marketing program on June 30, 2025. Prior to this, we were paid forty thousand dollars (cash) from Sica Media for advertising Vuzix Corporation for a two day marketing program on May 29, 2025. And we also were paid twenty five thousand dollars (cash) from Sica Media for advertising Vuzix Corporation for a one day marketing program on May 14, 2025. Prior to this, we were paid thirty five thousand dollars (cash) from Sica Media for advertising Vuzix Corporation for a one day marketing program on April 30, 2025.

It might seem obvious, but while our client claims not to own any shares in Vuzix Corporation, whoever ultimately paid them most likely owns shares. You should assume they are looking to sell some or all of them at any time after we send out this information, which might negatively affect the stock price. We may also buy or sell shares in the company at some point in the future, although neither Sherwood Ventures nor its owners own any shares of the company at this time. Also, keep in mind that due to the sheer size of our audience, if even a small percentage of people decide they want to buy this stock, it could potentially boost interest enough to hike up those share prices and cause a temporary spike, and the opposite is possible as the marketing campaign ends, though that is not always the case. | Now, diving right into Vuzix Corporation might sound exciting. But remember, it's like venturing into the wilderness—be aware that there's exceptional risk involved in trading. This isn't small potatoes we're talking about; you could lose every dime you put in, so always carefully think about what you're doing. That's why they call this trading, after all. We're shining a light on the good stuff about the company here, but it's on you to do your homework, make your own calls, and determine a plan for your own trading, hopefully with the help of your professional 1nvestment advis0r. | Oh, that brings us to another crucial point—we're not here to tell you (or even recommend) what you should do with your hard-earned money. We're simply sharing our non-expert thoughts by highlighting some companies who are paying us and we like that could use some help telling their story to more people. We're obviously biased in our writing. We're not here to dig into anything that may be negative about the company; this is advertising, after all! Also, keep in mind that if we make some predictions about the future, these are technically known as "forward-L00king statements" under the securities acts, so take those with a grain of salt. As with all forecasts, they're not set in stone, often wrong, and we certainly can't know where the Company's earnings, business, or share price will be tomorrow or a year from now. | Everything you read from us is all for your education, information, and possible entertainment. While we believe the info is reliable and accurate, we can't wear a cape and guarantee it.
