• Neutral Sentiment: Many headlines referencing “RTX” are about Nvidia’s consumer GeForce RTX GPUs (teardowns, reviews, bundles).

MSI GeForce RTX 5090 Gaming X ignites and burst into flames during first boot
• Negative Sentiment: Analyst/feature pieces flagging a GTF (Pratt & Whitney geared turbofan) crisis remain a medium‑term risk for RTX’s aerospace segment — potential warranty, production or order delays could pressure margins until resolved.
