This summary was created by AI, based on 9 opinions in the last 12 months.

Raytheon (RTX-N) is currently experiencing a robust long-term uptrend, benefiting from increased defense spending amid ongoing global conflicts, particularly in Ukraine and the Middle East. While the stock has shown impressive growth, up 43% in recent picks and 58% last year, some analysts express caution over a potential valuation issue as the price-to-earnings ratio has reached 31x. With 66% of revenues derived from the commercial aircraft sector and an all-time high of backlogs, the company is well-placed to capitalize on burgeoning demand from airlines for new equipment. However, concerns about extended valuations persist, and any drop below previous lows may prompt a reevaluation of positions in this stock, making it crucial for investors to monitor the situation closely.

It's a way to play the airline recovery, because they service planes, while we see a ramp-up in travel in pre-pandemic levels. Their defence business specializes in missile defence and cyberecutiry which are gaining traction because of the Russian war. There is more defence spending. This trades at a reasonable PE and pays a 2.4% yield. (Analysts’ price target is $113.61)

Wait for a lower price? Don't wait for a lower price. Once the US Fed gets late in its cycle for tightening, then the opportunity will be gone. The upside far outweighs the temporary weakness. Likes RTX for blending defence (a stable business) and commercial aerospace (about 60%+ of all revenues).

As a short term trader, maybe, but this trade is already in the market. Global spending on defence will be going up so you could buy the dips. Start looking at it 10% lower.

Has owned this for a long time. It's run up because half their business is defence (the other is aerospace which has growth opportunities as air tavel rises). Buy around low-$90s as an entry point.

Moving in now might be too late. 19x forward earnings, for 13% growth, which is not too bad. Don't buy it just because of what's happening in the world today, because those reasons might soon go away.

Russia fomenting a war with Ukraine will likely see oil prices explode higher, based on historic precedent. Industries and stocks that will rise if a war happens (and nobody wants one outside Russia) are oil, consumer staples, drug companies like Procter & Gamble or JNJ. Also defence stocks like Raytheon which reports tomorrow or Lockheed are buys.

It's half commercial aerospace, half defence. Defence has done well, but aerospace depends on international air travel, which has been slow to recover. Omicron can delay it further. She's still buying RTX. It generates a lot of cash flow and pays an attractive yield.
