Ahead Of Tomorrow | See Why (Nasdaq: CETX) Just Hit Tuesday’s Watchlist

Dear Reader,

Momentum is beginning to build around a story that wasn’t getting nearly this much attention just a short time ago.

One company in the industrial and security technology space now appears to be moving into a far more important phase—where execution, operating performance, and business mix are starting to matter more than simple expansion alone.

With rising demand tied to industrial infrastructure and a growing presence in aerospace and defense engineering, the picture is becoming increasingly difficult to overlook.

Stock News Trends has been watching this unfold closely, and the company now standing out in a much bigger way is Cemtrex, Inc. (Nasdaq: CETX).

That’s exactly why (CETX) will be topping our watchlist tomorrow morning—Tuesday, April 7, 2026.

But keep in mind, (CETX) has less than 11M shares listed as available to the public. When companies have small floats like this, the potential exists for big moves if demand begins to shift.

Right now, (CETX) appears to be flying under the radar while it’s currently trending below $1.

However, in the last 24 hours, (CETX) has made an approximate 33% move, from around $.51 on March 30 to $.68 today, March 31, according to data available on Barchart.

However, in the last 5 sessions, (CETX) has made an approximate 78% move, from around $.51 on March 30 to $.91 today, April 6, according to data available on Barchart.

And if this early move is any indication of what may be starting to build, the bigger story may still be ahead.

Because behind the recent attention is a company that is no longer defined by just one line of business, but by a broader platform taking shape across several fast-moving sectors.

A Diversified Technology & Services Platform

Cemtrex, Inc. (Nasdaq: CETX) is a diversified technology company that drives value through three distinct operating segments: Industrial Services, Security, and its newly established Aerospace & Defense division.

Through its Advanced Industrial Services (AIS) subsidiary, the company provides mission-critical plant maintenance and infrastructure installation for large-scale manufacturing facilities. Its Security segment, led by the Vicon Industries brand, delivers advanced AI-driven video surveillance and access control solutions to a global client base.

The company recently reached a strategic milestone by completing the acquisitions of Invocon, Inc. and Richland Industries, significantly broadening its geographic and technical reach. Invocon provides the foundation for the company’s Aerospace & Defense segment, offering mission-critical engineering for missile defense modernization and space exploration.

Meanwhile, the acquisition of Richland Industries extends the company’s industrial services platform into the Southeastern United States, providing access to a robust new market for infrastructure projects.

See the company’s latest corporate presentation here.

The Industrial Engine: Record-Breaking Performance

At the heart of the current Cemtrex growth narrative is the exceptional performance of its Industrial Services arm.

In the most recent fiscal period, this segment generated $10.6M in revenue, marking a 28% increase compared to the prior year. This surge is reflective of a broader trend in the U.S. manufacturing sector, where companies are investing heavily in plant modernization, equipment rigging, and large-scale mechanical installations to meet domestic production goals.

The acquisition of Richland Industries was a strategic masterstroke in this regard. By establishing a footprint in the Southeast, Cemtrex has gained immediate access to some of the most active industrial corridors in the country.

Management estimates that Richland alone will contribute between $8M and $10M in annual revenue, with the added benefit of expanding the company’s service capabilities to include specialized fabrication and site-specific engineering that were previously outsourced.

Aerospace & Defense: A New High-Margin Frontier

While industrial services provide the volume, the newly formed Aerospace & Defense segment is expected to provide the margin. The acquisition of Invocon, Inc. brings a specialized team of engineers with decades of experience working on government-funded defense programs.

This segment focuses on high-complexity electronic systems, including wireless sensor networks for space vehicles and data acquisition tools for advanced missile testing.

The strategic value of this division goes beyond immediate revenue; it provides Cemtrex with a higher "technical floor".

Engineering-heavy services typically command significantly higher gross margins than traditional hardware sales or general industrial labor.

Furthermore, government contracts often provide multi-year visibility and a level of insulation from the cyclical nature of commercial markets.

Management anticipates that the integration of Invocon will add approximately $6M to $7M to the top line in its first full year of operations.

Operational Momentum and Financial Transformation

Cemtrex entered 2026 with strong top-line momentum, reporting fiscal first-quarter revenue of $16.1M, representing 17% year-over-year growth.

To support this rapid expansion, the company significantly improved its financial flexibility through multiple equity raises and debt settlements, ending the first fiscal quarter with $20.5M in ca-sh, a 312% increase year-over-year.

This liquidity position is a critical differentiator for a micro-cap firm, providing the "dry powder" necessary to complete the integration of its recent acquisitions without relying on expensive debt.

Management has initiated a comprehensive "restoration" phase to address recent margin compression in the Security segment.

This includes annualized cost reductions of $2.5M to $3.0M through the streamlining of administrative functions and the optimization of the Vicon Industries supply chain. By realigning the cost structure of its security business, Cemtrex intends to convert more of its growing top-line revenue into bottom-line operating income.

Security Rebirth: Vicon’s AI Evolution

Inline Image

The Security segment, anchored by the Vicon brand, is undergoing its own technological evolution. No longer just a camera manufacturer, Vicon is pivoting toward software-as-a-service (SaaS) and AI-driven analytics.

The company’s latest video management software includes features like facial recognition, license plate reading, and behavior analytics, which are increasingly in demand for school safety and critical infrastructure protection.

By shifting the product mix toward software and recurring service contracts, Cemtrex is working to improve the "quality" of its security revenue. Software sales carry high margins and create long-term customer relationships that are difficult for competitors to displace.

The ongoing cost-cutting measures are designed to ensure this segment becomes a self-sustaining ca-sh generator that can fund the higher-growth initiatives in Aerospace and Industrial Services.

Recent Developments

  • [New Industrial Contract]: On March 12, 2026, Cemtrex announced that its AIS subsidiary was awarded a new $1.2M industrial installation contract, further strengthening its record-setting industrial backlog.
  • [Strategic Expansion]: The acquisition of Richland Industries was finalized in early February, providing immediate entry into the Southeastern U.S. industrial market.
  • [Aerospace Entrance]: The completion of the Invocon acquisition in January marked the official launch of the company’s Aerospace & Defense segment.
  • [Infrastructure Wins]: In January 2026, the company’s AIS subsidiary secured a $3.9M mechanical contract for a major infrastructure project in Berks County, Pennsylvania.
  • [Capital Optimization]: Throughout the first fiscal quarter, the company completed several registered direct offerings totaling approximately $10M to fund its acquisition pipeline.

Market Dynamics and Valuation Profile

The company’s focus for the remainder of fiscal 2026 is centered on expanding operating income and strengthening ca-sh flow generation. By positioning its Security segment as a disciplined earnings driver and leveraging the high-margin engineering services of its new Aerospace division, Cemtrex is building a diversified platform designed to deliver long-term value despite broader economic headwinds.

7 Reasons Why (CETX) Will Be Topping Our Watchlist Tomorrow Morning

—Tuesday, April 7, 2026…

1. Recent Momentum: In the last 5 sessions, (CETX) made an approximate 78% move, rising from around $.51 on March 30 to $.91 today, April 6, according to data available on Barchart.

2. Small Float: With less than 11M shares listed as available to the public, (CETX)’s small float could witness the potential for big moves if demand begins to shift.

3. Three Segments: Through Industrial Services, Security, and Aerospace & Defense, (CETX) is tied to several business lines rather than just one.

4. Industrial Growth: The Industrial Services arm of (CETX) generated $10.6M in the most recent fiscal period, up 28% from the prior year.

5. Defense Expansion: With the Invocon acquisition, (CETX) added an Aerospace & Defense segment focused on engineering tied to missile defense modernization and space exploration.

6. Capital Position: Entering 2026, (CETX) reported $20.5M in ca-sh, a 312% year-over-year increase that strengthened its financial flexibility.

7. Cost Cuts: Management says (CETX) has launched annualized cost reductions of $2.5M to $3.0M as part of an effort to improve operating performance in the Security segment.

Get (CETX) On Your Radar Before Tomorrow Morning…

Inline Image

When you step back and look at the full picture, (CETX) begins to stand out for a combination of factors that don’t often show up together at this stage.

A small float, an approximate 33% move in under 24 hours, and a business model built across three distinct segments all point to a company that’s actively evolving rather than standing still.

At the same time, the underlying numbers are starting to tell a clearer story.

The Industrial Services division alone delivered $10.6M in its latest period, reflecting 28% growth, while the addition of an Aerospace & Defense segment introduces a new layer of engineering-focused capabilities tied to long-term programs.

Supporting all of this is a significantly strengthened balance sheet, with $20.5M in ca-sh—a 312% year-over-year increase—and ongoing cost reductions of $2.5M to $3.0M aimed at improving overall efficiency.

Put together, (CETX) is no longer just about where it has been—but where it may be heading as these pieces come together.

We will have all eyes on (CETX) tomorrow morning—Tuesday, April 7, 2026.

Take a look at (CETX) tonight before you shut down.

Also, keep a lookout for my morning update, it could be hitting earlier than usual.

Sincerely,

Jeff Ackerman

Momentum Check | See Why (VMET) Will Have Our Full Focus Early Tomorrow

Dear Reader,

Right now, Street Ideas is seeing gold stand out in a way that’s becoming harder and harder to ignore.

Gold is having a moment.

According to Katusa Research, miners are now pulling roughly $3,200 per ounce in operating ca-sh flow at current prices — the fattest production margins in history.

  • J.P. Morgan just raised its 2026 forecast to $5,055/oz.
  • Goldman Sachs bumped to $5,400.
  • Bank of America is targeting $6,000.

And central banks? They're accumulating at the fastest pace since the 1960s.

Now here's where it gets interesting. Tether — the stablecoin giant that made $13B in 2024 and $10B in 2025— has deployed nearly $275M into gold and royalty companies and is purchasing more than one tonne of gold weekly.

When Bloomberg asked Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino why they're hoarding gold at a pace rivaling central banks, he answered: "We believe the world is going towards darkness."

One of the names in Tether's crosshairs?

Versamet Royalties Corporation (NASDAQ: VMET) — where Tether now holds ~12.7% ownership.

Keep reading to quickly get up to speed on why we're highlighting (VMET) right now.

Per Fortune Business Insights, the global gold market is expected to almost double by 2034. At the center of this expanding precious metals space is a traditional royalty company focused on gold, silver, and copper royalties.

And this is just some of the reasons why Versamet Royalties Corporation (NASDAQ: VMET) will be topping our watchlist tomorrow—Tuesday, April 7, 2026.

Inline Image

See (VMET)’s latest corporate presentation here.

According to Yahoo Finance, (VMET) has less than 34M shares in its float. With a market cap under $1.2B, that small float size could see the potential for big moves if demand begins to shift.

The company operates as an asset-light precious metals royalty and streaming enterprise, acquiring royalty interests on producing and development-stage mines across gold, silver, copper, and other metals.

Versamet Royalties Corporation (NASDAQ: VMET) spans Canada, Peru, Namibia, Brazil, and Burkina Faso — with streams and NSR royalties on operations including Greenstone, Kiaka, Rosh Pinah, Kolpa, Blackwater, and Cuiú Cuiú.

New Development: Eskay Creek Gold Stream Acquisition

Earlier today, (VMET) announced its largest acquisition to date: a 3.52% life-of-mine gold stream on the Eskay Creek project in British Columbia.

The asset adds exposure to a high-grade, past-producing mine in Canada’s Golden Triangle, with construction reported 49% complete as of February 28, 2026, and first production targeted for Q2 2027.

Under the agreement, (VMET) will receive 3.52% of payable gold production over the life of mine, with no caps, step-downs, or buydown provisions.

The stream is expected to contribute more than 10,000 gold ounces annually during the first five years of operation and help lift Versamet’s attributable production to more than 30,000 GEOs annually when Eskay reaches full capacity.

Total consideration is $360M, including $340M in ca-sh and $20M in common shares.

Following closing, management expects Canada to represent roughly 50% of attributable GEOs by 2028, supported by Eskay, Greenstone, and Blackwater.

Other Recent Milestones Catching Our Attention

  • Record Financial Performance: Per the March 12 earnings release, FY 2025 revenue hit $34.8M (up 189%), with net income surging 931% year-over-year.
  • Tether Strategic Partnership: According to the February 2026 press release, Tether closed a C$22M private placement. Per Katusa Research, Tether's XAUT gold-backed stablecoin is growing 50% per quarter.
  • NASDAQ Listing: Common shares commenced trading on NASDAQ in March 2026, expected to increase U.S. institutional accessibility.
  • 2026 Production Guidance: Management guidance targets 20,000 to 23,000 Gold Equivalent Ounces — representing 104-135% growth over 2025's 9,815 GEOs.
  • Rosh Pinah RP2.0 Expansion: Per the Q4 release, the expansion is over 85% complete and expected Q3 2026, doubling throughput to 1.3M tonnes annually.

Market Alignment

Here's what stands out. The March 12 earnings release showed Q4 revenue of $18.4M — up 465% year-over-year — with adjusted EBITDA soaring 862% and operating ca-sh flow jumping 1,126%. For FY 2025, revenue hit $34.8M (up 189%) and net income surged 931%. Central banks are now the largest gold accumulators — with J.P. Morgan estimating demand averaging ~585 tonnes quarterly in 2026.

7 Factors Putting (VMET) At The Top Of Tomorrow’s Watchlist

—Tuesday, April 7, 2026

1. Tether's "Parallel Reserve": Per Katusa Research, Tether is building a private monetary system backed by physical gold in a Swiss nuclear bunker.

2. Limited Float: That float of less than 34M shares could create volatility if demand shifts around key potential catalysts.

3. Cornerstone Shareholders: Lundin Family Trusts (~12%) and Tether (~12%) hold significant stakes, alongside major shareholders B2Gold (~29%) and Equinox (~11%), with Zijin Mining’s Gold Mountains Asset Management also investing.

4. Blackwater Mega-Expansion: Phase 2 expansion targets 21 Mtpa (Mln Tonnes Per Annum) by end of 2028 — pushing gold production to more than 500,000 ounces per year.

5. Eskay Creek Production Growth: The 3.52% life-of-mine gold stream is expected to contribute more than 10,000 ounces annually in its early years and help lift total attributable production to over 30,000 GEOs at full capacity, providing a clear step-up in output tied to a single asset.

6. Long-Life, Uncapped Exposure: The stream includes no caps, step-downs, or buydown provisions, giving full participation in the mine’s production over its life, while increasing exposure to Canadian assets, which management expects to account for roughly 50% of GEOs by 2028.

7. Record-Shattering Financials: Q4 revenue up 465%, adjusted EBITDA up 862%, operating ca-sh flow up 1,126% — three consecutive years of records since inception.

Pull Up (VMET) Before Tomorrow Morning…

Inline Image

Put it all together, and a clear picture starts to form.

You’re looking at a company that has already delivered measurable growth — with Q4 revenue up 465%, adjusted EBITDA up 862%, and operating ca-sh flow up 1,126% — while continuing to expand its footprint across large-scale mining assets.

Its structure remains lean, with a float of under 34M shares, while established groups including B2Gold, Lundin interests, Equinox, and Tether maintain significant ownership positions.

At the asset level, projects like Blackwater continue to scale toward 500,000+ ounces annually, while the recently announced Eskay Creek stream adds a new layer of production — expected to contribute over 10,000 ounces per year in its early stages and push total output beyond 30,000 GEOs at full capacity.

Importantly, that Eskay exposure comes without caps or step-downs, providing full participation across the life of the mine, while increasing the company’s weighting toward Canadian operations over time.

Taken together, it’s a combination of financial momentum, expanding production, and long-duration royalty exposure — all within a structure that remains relatively tight.

We’ll be focused on (VMET) early tomorrow.

Pull up (VMET) tonight before you head to bed.

Be on the lookout for my morning update report, it could be coming bright and early.

Have a good night.

Sincerely,

Paul Prescott

The Roundup

Article Icon 1Advocates Work Toward Western NC Train

Rail advocates in Western North Carolina are intensifying efforts to restore passenger train service between Asheville and Salisbury, a route that last operated in 1975.

The Western North Carolina Rail Committee organized a March 18 conference in Morganton, drawing about 140 attendees to strategize next steps. Local leaders, including Asheville Mayor Esther Manheimer and Salisbury Mayor Pro Tem Susan Kluttz, expressed growing momentum for the 139-mile corridor on Norfolk Southern tracks.

An NCDOT feasibility study and N.C. State economic impact analysis both support the project, which envisions three daily round trips with a travel time of 3 hours 25 minutes to 3 hours 48 minutes.

The $665 million initiative would create connections in Salisbury to other Amtrak routes, boosting tourism and regional access. Advocates are seeking state, local, and private funding to match potential federal support.
