I love this sub but GD losses like this are so dumb. MF sitting here with generational wealth and just has to gamble it.

Alright so I'm up to a bunch of dips that I'm now eyeing up. AMTM, DE, some set of defense/aero names - GD/GE/TXT/NOX, dollar stores maybe DG/DLTR, LLY, and healthcare as well - THC/UHS. Gotta start picking between all these to slowly start adding positions lmao

selesnyaTroll

Been starting to eye up a few different sectors having dips. Defense/aerospace names like GD/TXT/GE/NOC. Dollar stores - DG/DLTR. Maybe even LLY. All having similar dips with DE.

A lot of names in this sector have come down a good deal from their highs. Was actually starting to look into stuff like GD, GE, TXT. Defense/Aerospace sector isn't sexy, but they steadily make money.

>LUNR is speculative company based on lunar surface infrastructure. LUNR recently became the main manufacturer of satellite busses for LHX, IRDM, SATS, T/TPG (DirecTV), SIRI, and NOAA. They are also a significant guidance, propulsion, and navigation provider for LMT, B, GD, GY, Spectrum Astro, and NOC. This isn't even new news at this point. *Way* too many people are failing to understand the significance of the [Lanteris ](https://lanterisspace.com/about-us/history)and [KinetX ](https://www.kinetx.com/missions)acquisitions.

Agree on EUAD and RTX. Also added GD. EUAD kind of stuck around $41 since June though.

If you watched Thom Tillis today, he isn't backing down on blocking any confirmations for fed seats. Trump was too stupid to leave it alone when a judge threw out Pirro's bullshit investigation. They went ahead and appealed. Tillis even went through it a bit today about how they found asbestos and some water issue that led to the cost increases. This is just Trump using the DOJ as a weapon against his foes. One reason alone he should be impeached and convicted. While I respect what Tillis is doing it has to be said he only found his balls this year because he's retiring the end of the year. The way moron Trump is playing his cards, Warsh's confirmation will be held up through the mid-terms where the republicans looks to lose control of the house and senate. Then Trump will never get Warsh confirmed. Which woud be good news for keeping an independent fed but it just shows how GD dumb this administration is.

Defense stocks would be my best guess right now. My grandfather retired from GD so ill always owe my life to that company... especially in times like now

I was told if another administration got into power, we'd be a communist nation by now. Forgive me for not believing a GD thing anyone in power says any longer. It all seems to be to fill the pockets of the MIC, as per usual. I'll gladly trade on that, and bank on the TACO piece of late, but rationality in the market is sort of out the window. Its a lot of copium from investors who are up now, as to why we are where we are, and like another person said - this post seems to only support when there's a run, but when 2008-like events happen, it's a fresh bail out to the banks/large enterprise (who have consolidated the markets thru manipulation), courtesy of fresh printed money bay beeeeee

From claude ai. The Korean play is interesting im going to look into it more “Lockheed Martin (LMT) is the single biggest beneficiary. They manufacture PAC-3 MSE interceptors, THAAD interceptors, JASSM/LRASM, and PrSM — essentially the four munition families most depleted by Epic Fury and most needed for Pacific reconstitution. The Pentagon is partnering with Lockheed Martin to triple PAC-3 MSE production from roughly 600 annually to 2,000 by 2030 , and THAAD production is being quadrupled from 96 to 400 per year, including a new Munitions Acceleration Center in Arkansas. PrSM production would be quadrupled to 1,134 units in FY2027 at $1.7 million each. That’s multi-year, multi-billion-dollar revenue visibility across three separate program lines from one company. RTX (Raytheon) — Tomahawks and SM-3s. Tomahawk production is set for a 1,200% increase from 58 in 2026 to 785 in FY2027 , and RTX has framework agreements to increase SM-3 Block IB and IIA output by two to four times. RTX also builds the SM-6, which is the Navy’s do-everything interceptor for the Pacific. They co-produce Patriot interceptors with Lockheed. Northrop Grumman (NOC) — B-2 operations in Epic Fury showcased the platform, but the bigger play is that both Northrop Grumman and Raytheon have been awarded contracts to develop common rocket motors that plug into multiple missile families. If you’re building the engine that goes into SM-6, future hypersonic interceptors, and next-gen standoff weapons, you’re positioned across the entire reconstitution wave. They also build the GBI homeland defense interceptors and are a key player in the Next Generation Interceptor program. Boeing — This one’s a chokepoint story more than a growth story. Both US and Japanese PAC-3 production depends on the availability of crucial seeker heads, which have been slowly coming off production lines at Boeing. Boeing makes JDAM kits (deep stockpiles consumed), SDB IIs, and Harpoon. They’re also the other half of the Patriot interceptor production with Lockheed. Their defense revenue benefits, but their seeker head production is actually a bottleneck constraining everyone else’s ramp. L3Harris — Named in Modigliani’s piece as one of the companies with framework agreements under Deputy Secretary Feinberg’s Munitions Acceleration Council. They build key sensor and electronics components across multiple interceptor programs, and they’re the prime on some counter-drone systems that are now in urgent demand. The Second Tier — Where the Smarter Money Might Look Aerojet Rocketdyne (now part of L3Harris) — Solid rocket motors for virtually every interceptor and missile in the U.S. inventory. Every production ramp across every program flows through their motor supply. They’re the hidden dependency underneath all of the above. General Dynamics (GD) — Ordnance and tactical systems division makes the bomb bodies, propellant, and munitions components. Less sexy than the primes, but when you’re rebuilding 13,000+ expended munitions worth of inventory, someone has to make the casings and explosives. Kratos Defense (KTOS) — Target drones and low-cost attritable systems. The Epic Fury lesson about cost-exchange ratios is accelerating the push toward cheaper, mass-producible autonomous systems. Kratos is the leading pure-play in that space. If the Pentagon gets serious about not fighting the next war with $4M interceptors against $100K threats, companies like Kratos benefit. Anduril — Not publicly traded (yet, though IPO rumors persist), but their Roadrunner interceptor-drone is specifically designed to solve the cost-exchange ratio problem. Epic Fury is the best marketing case study they could ask for. The International Angle South Korea’s M-SAM (Cheongung II) achieved its first combat hit against Iranian missiles during Epic Fury in the UAE. That’s a combat validation event for LIG Nex1 and Hanwha Aerospace, the Korean manufacturers. The Korean defense export sector was already booming — this accelerates it. Eurosam (MBDA/Thales) — Currently producing around 100 interceptors in 2026, an increase from around 60 previously. European allies now have their own depletion anxiety, and MBDA’s SAMP/T is one of the few non-American systems that can handle tactical ballistic missiles. Rheinmetall — Not directly in the interceptor game, but they’re the European leader in ammunition production and are building new facilities specifically for munitions surge capacity. The lesson from Epic Fury generalizes to all munition types.”

Imagine being an Iranian: A week ago you buried multiple family members who were horrifically killed by US bombs. Yesterday you read a tweet by Trump threatening to eradicate your entire civilization. Despite this mad man's ravings, you stand on a bridge; despite the risk to your own life, in the hopes that this act of defiance might make a difference in the war. Then, this morning, you read this crazy statement. I don't want to sound too sympathetic to ultra-religious Iranians but dam, this must feel like a fever dream. Our presedent is out of his GD mind!

Defense names like Lockheed and GD can be steadier plays compared to tech, but diversification across sectors usually helps too.

Question... Why don't defense stocks, like RTX, and GD, rip in times like these?? Does a guy just load up on calls for their next earnings?? This has to be printing money for them. US is going to have to restock all those missiles, plus some. RTX especially... All the bombs.

Also because we're seeing repeated signs of the GD (Tariffs, isolationism, lack of support of the (now shrinking) middle class, etc) and a bank run goes right along with that. This got clicks because of depression fears and patterns. Nothing more.

My theory is that this is a selling opportunity in oil (maybe not today , but soon) If it was me , I wouldn’t hold those calls for longer than 1-3 weeks .

The drooling TDS parroting sort of got turned on its head after Epstein. Now the TDS is supporting covering up for an elite pedo ring which is still (unlawfully) [holding back files](https://www.wsj.com/us-news/law/doj-to-review-whether-epstein-files-about-trump-were-improperly-withheld-bc8af73c?gaa_at=eafs&gaa_n=AWEtsqeu7lc1wVj1tzLCl4YaRunhEz_ep4uUCP8GD17cP6doYufst_3a0Ci5xiadKvY%3D&gaa_ts=69a263b4&gaa_sig=sC20JEOCi4SuZk9D7-ufdkkru7g7ZL6HOuyDJrAQnv5lNbcvXUrmlRPVQDkUlV1CBRMgYWK2JXehUfyInrFx_A%3D%3D) which indicate Trump himself may be a pedo. You'd think pedophila and abusing minors would be the line for some people, but we see it is not. That's *actual* derangement. Also Khamenei was an 86 year old dinosaur figurehead. The regime is still in place and will likely remain so short of massive American involvement which few aside from Lindsey Graham would countenance as much. But still: calls.

I bought USO last week, so I am smiling. But, I also took both cars and all of our gas canisters to the gas station and filled up yesterday. THIS WAR, the war that no one wanted except Israel and some Iranians, will now drive up the price of everything for months. Which will increase freight costs, drive up inflation, cause more job losses. Meanwhile, the oil companies, and companies like HAL, LMT, RTX, BAH, GD, HII and others will go up. Full disclosure: I am long USO and HAL, and plan to get some RTX and BAH. Just to even the score for me.

what about GD

CallsOrPutsYES

#Some KEY defense stocks (LMT, RTX, GD, BA, AXON, AVAV, ONDS, AIRO, KTOS)

ElmoLovesGrover

Yes, mostly priced in the defense sector. Unless something changes, this going to be an air war for us and the companies that make the bombs and missiles for an air war (GD, LMT, RTX, etc.) all are already up and near 52 week highs. People are talking a spike in oil and oil-related stocks of course. Likely will happen just because people are talking about it. It shouldn't matter though since only 3% of global oil output is from Iran and US oil companies are operating at way less than capacity no and can very easily make up for that. The more I think about it the more I think the overall market will get hit pretty hard next week. The war itself shouldn't affect the market, but when the market tanks people will blame the war. In reality - I think the market price action recently: \-precious metals way up, \-BTC way down, \-big tech selling off despite very good earnings, \-rotation into defensive/value plays (as shown by elevated PEs for these companies) all show a dramatic increase in negative and risk-off sentiment that is not related to an Iran conflict. People are looking for an excuse to sell and they will use the Iran war. The media will push that as well too cause they hate Trump baby, and will not hesitate to blame a market dump on him starting a war in Iran.

Stocks_N_Bondage

Well, there's obliteration and then there's obliteration. Last time was alternate obliteration. This time more better obliteration. Also, these companies rely upon us to blow up the things they make for us to blow up other things with.

Portfoliana

tbh the LMT/GD comparison is a bit of a strawman since thosd defense companies wont compound their OCF 10x anyway. but 0.6% OCF yield is rough on its own terms - even accounting for growth you need the business to 5-6x from here before this starts making sense. feels like the market is giving credit for a decade of AIP execution taht hasnt fully materialized yet.

Mariox

Lockheed martin growing 5%. GD growing 4%. NOC growing 4.5% Analysts think PLTR is not going to beat their guidance of 62% but I think 2026 growth will be closer to 85%. My estimate for PLTR FCF is $4.6 billion this year and growing to $52 billion in 2030. (based off of Karp's guidance of 10x US revenue over 5 years that he said a year ago) And 80% FCF margin I put a 55 multiple on the P/FCF with a continued 30% growth in 2031 and I get a fair value of $1,247 at the end of 2030. PLTR continues to deploy their platforms faster using less manhours and plan on use AI instead of people in the future to deploy their platforms. Customers sign on and then expand their use of PLTR and those customers get their suppliers onto PLTR. My current estimate for 2026 is 85% growth with a bullish case for 95%. Which does sound crazy but looking at my quarterly estimates for 2026 isn't crazy. If I was forced to buy just 1 company today, i would actually pick PLTR over TSLA just because there is less risk for PLTR. Burry thinks PLTR is a consultancy company. The guy don't even know what PLTR even do.

Maybe if they weren't so GD expensive younger people could afford them. My dad wanted a truck his whole life, could never afford it until after he retired. So now he is one of those "old ass dudes" driving a truck, and I think a man that did manual labor jobs his entire career deserves to drive a decent truck. Not even a NEW truck, mind you, it's a 2017 I believe (he wasn't dumb enough to finance a $70k+ truck.) All that to say I'm not judging anyone driving a nice truck, because IDK what their story is and if they're like my dad they deserve to drive a nice truck.
