PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 05/22, Up 37%) Model price of $404, downside of -16%. War drums are pounding. Same issue as with BA, where a lot of their numbers are secret.

BUY

As a 5-year hold Gandhi could be president and defence spending will still go higher. Trades at 14x PE 2023 and a 24% growth rate.

TOP PICK

Defensive, industrial play in defense. Tends to perform very well in September relative to the market 71% of the time, and it's positive 68% of the time. Long-term government contracts. Not a pick based on outcome of the Russia-Ukraine war. Longer term, global military spending is on the rise. Yield is 2.65%. (Analysts’ price target is $457.70)

BUY

He has owned for a long time and it has done well over the market downturn. It has several programs with strong growth prospects. It is in the field of defense where there are needs, especially now. Lots of free cash flow over time.

BUY

A great CEO and LMT is best in class.

BUY

It's too cheap in this environment.

COMMENT

It reports Tuesday. It should be peaking, because the west is re-arming, but these shares peaked 70 points while ago. Maybe it can rebound.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sep 14/21, Up 23.9%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with LMT has triggered its stop at $425. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. This will result in a net investment gain of 21%, when considering the previous buy recommendation.

BUY

Too late to buy defence stocks? Not too late. Defence stocks have moved 30% off their levels 6-8 months ago because of the Russian war. Both LHR and General Dynamics earn about 70% of their revenues from the US government. He prefers Raytheon, a defence contractor (that makes the Patriot missile) and also produces commercial aircraft. The latter derives out of their legacy UTX business and amounts to 65% of their overall business. Expects the US government as well as NATO to be customers in their defence business as commercial picks up.

BUY

Yes, the US will increase defence spending because of the Russian war, but all of NATO will. LMT is fine, though he prefers Raytheon. Space monitoring will see an uptick, so Maxar will benefit, too.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sep 14/21, Up 31.4%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with LMT is progressing well. We now recommend trailing up the stop (from $365) to $425 at this time.

BUY

The world's largest defence contractor. They produce 150 of the F-35 plane annually, and they sell 71% to US Defence plus 29% international sales. Unfortunately with the Russian war, Germany will increase their defence spending from $30 billion up to $100 billion.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sep 14/21, Up 11.2%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with LMT is progressing well. We now recommend trailing up the stop (from $320) to $343.

BUY

Russia fomenting a war with Ukraine will likely see oil prices explode higher, based on historic precedent. Industries and stocks that will rise if a war happens (and nobody wants one outside Russia) are oil, consumer staples, drug companies like Procter & Gamble or JNJ. Also defence stocks like Raytheon which reports tomorrow or Lockheed are buys.
