Defense Stocks To Consider – February 10th

Boeing, Rocket Lab, and RTX are the three Defense stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Defense stocks are shares of companies that design, manufacture, and service military and national-security products and services—such as aircraft, ships, weapons systems, satellites, and cybersecurity—sold primarily to governments and defense contractors. Investors often view them as relatively stable during economic downturns because of long-term government contracts and steady defense spending, though they carry political, regulatory, and geopolitical risks. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Defense stocks within the last several days.
