Promising Defense Stocks To Keep An Eye On – January 15th

Rocket Lab, Boeing, and Lockheed Martin are the three Defense stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Defense stocks are shares in companies that produce goods or provide services for military and national security purposes—such as weapons systems, aerospace and defense contractors, and defense-focused technology and cybersecurity firms. Investors consider them relatively defensive because government defense spending tends to be steadier across economic cycles, which can reduce volatility and offer more predictable revenue and dividend potential. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Defense stocks within the last several days.
