This week, the TSX experienced a roller-coaster of wins and losses, yet managed to break a record high.
In the face of this dynamic trading environment, three companies have stood out for their notable achievements and promising outlooks.
When the Cleveland Cavaliers kick off their home opener against the Detroit Pistons next week, they’ll have Xtract One Technologies (TSX:XTRA, Forum) to thank for an added layer of security.
The AI-driven security solutions provider has seen its stock rise after the confirmation of its SmartGateway screeners’ installation at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, home of the NBA’s Cavaliers, back in Q2 2024. The Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, described as “northeast Ohio’s premier sports and entertainment facility,” is host to nearly 2 million people annually for various events, including major concerts, family shows and sports tournaments.
