Trade This, not That- Afternoon Preview for July 25, 2025
DENVER, Colo., Jul 25, 2025 (247marketnews.com)- As the market grinds through another summer Friday trading session, a number of under-the-radar and momentum names are starting to break out or flashing signals.
Venu’s (NYSE:VENU) win streak: 8 days and counting. VENU is flirting with a technical breakout, as its Reg A Offering officially closed, removing a potential overhang.
The $14 resistance level is under fire, and a clean break could trigger a short squeeze toward $22.30, based on an independent analyst target from Cenorium AG. It’s been a tug-of-war, but the shorts are very close to capitulating.
Notably, CEO J.W. Roth recently invested $5M of his own money, with plans to scale that to $20M, a strong insider signal.
AEye (NASDAQ:LIDR) is extending gains today following its Apollo lidar sensor’s full integration into NVIDIA’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) DRIVE AGX platform, which makes LIDR a certified supplier to one of the top automotive AI ecosystems.
“Apollo’s industry-leading 1-kilometer range and compact form factor make it a standout solution,” said CEO Matt Fisch.
This solidifies LIDR’s tech credibility and unlocks access to global Tier-1 automakers for next-gen driver-assistance systems.
Comfort Systems (NYSE:FIX) continues to show institutional support on strength in the non-residential construction and infrastructure services market. Analysts are optimistic about long-term demand for HVAC and electrical contracting as federal and state funding flows into U.S. energy retrofitting.
Eightco (NASDAQ:OCTO) is quietly building momentum as investors turn attention to its digital asset monetization strategy. Recent patent activity and IP partnerships in Web3 and entertainment licensing have sparked renewed interest.
SMX Security Matters (NASDAQ:SMX) is seeing speculative interest on rumors.
Coursera (NYSE:COUR) is holding big gains on high volume, COUR remains in focus ahead of earnings. Analysts are betting on international growth and AI-powered course personalization to drive increased adoption across both enterprise and consumer segments.
Connexa Sports Technologies (NASDAQ:CNXA) shares are on watch as this connected sports tech firm seeks to pivot into AI-driven coaching tools and smart racquet analytics. Low float and tech rebrand interest make it a speculative watch.
Quantum BioPharma’s (NASDAQ:QNTM) is showing early signs of a potential short squeeze setup.
Gentex (NASDAQ:GNTX) is seeing quiet accumulation as interest grows around driver-assistance technologies and smart mirror solutions. With legacy OEM ties and new EV platforms needing smart interior tech, Gentex may be a stealth long-term play.
Mill City Ventures III (NASDAQ:MCVT), a business development company, is one to watch for potential NAV updates or investment portfolio movements. Its niche lending model in consumer credit and litigation finance adds intrigue in a high-rate environment.
