Defense

BAE (BA.) short One name that I think looks really attractive or scary depending on the way you look at it is BA., this defence giant since posting a new high in July 2018 has embarked on a decent steep enough to give the most ardent roller coaster enthusiast week knees. After the massive move down the stock finally found some support at 450 before a brief bounce and is now making its way back to that level but is taking a breather around 460 which is where we find ourselves today. I really like this set up, after a gap down the price has been moving sideways before we decide where were going next this is shown by the 10 day average volume being 19% below the 3 month average suggesting to me that people are waiting to see how this area plays out. My plan is to play for a break of the 461 level with my stop entry being set at 458.9 just past the low of the previous attempt at the level. the next major support should be found at 450 where I will trim a 3rd of my position. Past that 440 will be the next trim which will leave 1 third of my original position left to run freely using a weekly high trailing stop after the move down. I hope you enjoyed this post, if you share my views be sure to get in touch or if you have an other UK stocks you think are worth looking into ill be more than happy to chat to you about them. Happy trading. Joe LSE:BA.

Mocom Technology Holdings - Galium fishingWhat's not to love. Buying into telecom/cellular, defense tech, big data processing with equal sectors. Self-driving cars will need, but market still extremely small. 5 yrs. from now, not so much. Buy and hold. Won patent suit in 2017 to protect GaN chips, which run 80-100x faster than silicone chips and they can make them for same cost. STM needed to partner with them to prevent more patent litigation, so STM is now their distributor and making MTSI chips as well. Fast chips will allow 5G cybersecurity improvements for all 3 arena's as newer chip technology. Technical view: Below 786 fibretracement from recent drop after some BIG DOG $$$ got scared from US-CH trade wars. This is almost as good as NVDA and AMD before their recent runs. Would love to see a double bottom here.... You're welcome on this one. Been looking for GaAs, GaN chip manuf. with patents and new partnership gives this. No seriously, you're welcome. longbuylongsell @MarxBabu add Woody's CCI here on 4h chart with Fib Retracement (scroll back).

Drones and Virtual Reality - A Spec PlayShares of ARTX look interesting as a speculative play for longer-term investors. The company is in the fields of drones and virtual reality, with recent contract wins with the US military. At 3 dollars and change, it's a cheap way to play on the long-term growth in those areas, which are bound to see strong growth for some time. Immediate support lies at $3.35, with additional support below at $3.10 and then $2.70. Upside targets are $3.75 and then the highs at $4.35, or +10% and +28%, respectively from today's close. I jumped in via calls, specifically the February 2019 $2.50's (currently I.T.M.), paying $1.15 for them. Breakeven comes at $3.65, or 7.4% higher from here... and being so far out, there's plenty of time for this to work. It may grow in to an investment after I can dig in deeper to fundamentals. I'll update this as more info is known to me. For now, consider it for a spec play or at least keep it on the radar! Happy trading!

Lockheed - long the post-dividends dipLMT really took off (pun intended) in the days leading up to and following their last earnings report, only to return to the landing strip again before taking another shot at $360. It is now back to home base and looks to be refueling before trying $360 again. On Friday, LMT scored a sizeable contract with the USAF for training support, and with no shortage of F35 orders, Lockheed looks to be a solid long term play, as well. Especially since they pay dividends.

RTN Tracing a "V"? - Price at Support, Combat Springs Eternal.Nations and states won't stop fighting and will always need security, so defense stocks are always an intriguing sector. But let's focus on the short-term. Raytheon has been hit hard with some bad news. Despite reporting good earnings on April 26, easing Korean tensions and anticipated delays on big deals for Raytheon's technology are among some of the purported reasons RTN has tumbled. Thanks in advance for lending me your attention! Is RTN 's stock primed to rise in price as quickly as it's fallen this last week? We can see from the chart Raytheon is wobbling in an area of strong support with very high relative volume. RTN sold off on news, but the fundamentals and technicals are both attractive. Many traders are saying it's time to buy the dip. Could Raytheon trace out a "V" pattern here and provide for some quick and tidy profits for buyers of the stock and\or call options? Please like, follow, and share, and maybe we can have fun and do great things together. Thanks again! See it on the site: holsturr.com/category/markets/charts/ ** For speculative and research purposes only - good luck! **

$RTN Defense is where my money is!$RTN Defense is where my money is! We have all been watching Fox news and by now know that we put 59 Tomahawk missiles in Syria's lap. Those 59 have to be replaced....right? The next couple of days are entangled with questions. What if.....and if so then what? With all the unknowns I think the market may be a little bearish in most industries. Except for one.DEFENSE! I would be willing to wager (Ha) that the defense market will see a move that we haven't seen since November, or heck, maybe, longer! How much does a Tomahawk Missile Cost?

$KTOS Best Value Buy Opportunity PotentialKTOS has gotten a lot of attention on television lately, but we don't think it's buy at the moment. Fundamentally, the company's exposure in Unmanned systems as well as Directed Energy makes them a contender long-term, as these are the two fastest growing subsectors within future defense capabilities. The latest news exposure and positive earnings news last quarter blew the stock up, but we maintain the opinion that major profit taking on a relatively risky stock will drive the price downward in the short term and allow for a buy opportunity for a long term hold.

Global Mitary Events Fuel LMT GrowthUnrelated to any sort of technical analysis but I've noticed that any large-scale global military event seems to be a catalyst for growth in LMT as shown by the markers indicating the dates that the respective events began, which are followed by a long uptrend. Although LMT holds no contracts within Russia, Ukraine or Iraq, these military events create unrest globally and fuel defense spending. Keeping an eye on the news, especially with the recent ending of the Russia/Ukraine cease fire. Long LMT.
