Top Defense Stocks To Keep An Eye On – October 29th

Boeing, Rocket Lab, GE Aerospace, Archer Aviation, and General Dynamics are the five Defense stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Defense stocks are shares of publicly traded companies that design, manufacture, or provide services and technology for military and national security purposes—for example aerospace and defense contractors, weapons makers, cybersecurity firms, and logistics providers serving government clients. Investors treat them as a distinct sector because revenues are often tied to government defense budgets and geopolitical events, which can make their cash flows relatively stable in economic downturns but sensitive to policy shifts and conflict-driven demand. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Defense stocks within the last several days.
