Spark’s Take on CETX Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, CETX is a Neutral.

The score is primarily held down by weak financial performance (deepening losses, negative free cash flow, and high leverage). Technicals also remain weak with the stock below major moving averages and negative MACD. Valuation is hard to support with a negative P/E, while corporate events modestly help via added capital and a potential strategic acquisition.
