Promising Defense Stocks To Keep An Eye On – December 27th

Rocket Lab, Boeing, GE Aerospace, Sidus Space, Lockheed Martin, RTX, and Howmet Aerospace are the seven Defense stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Defense stocks are shares of companies that design, manufacture, or provide services and technology for military and national security purposes—for example aerospace firms, weapons manufacturers, cybersecurity contractors, and defense suppliers. Investors treat them as tied to government defense spending and sometimes relatively insulated from consumer-driven economic cycles, though their returns depend heavily on geopolitical events, defense budgets, and contract awards. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Defense stocks within the last several days.
