- bwcarnation1: @Tlluride $LMT $RTX $GD I would guess this military move by Israel will be quick and severe. CNBC reporting that many top Iranian military people have been killed. Next will be Iran's bunkers with Fordow the most important one to be taken out.
- Tlluride: @bwcarnation1 Yes, i thought they would be down more than they are. Defense contractor stocks are up, $LMT, $RTX $GD. $GD has just crossed 200 Day, looks pretty good here.
- Henry: @bwcarnation1 $LMT $RTX $GD I've read that the success of the stealth F-117 in whatever was the number of the Gulf War where it was first used drove top secret installations, all over the world, underground. They are telling us Israel doesn't have a bunker busting bomb. IDKW, they are the number 1 recipient of foreign aid, after Ukraine. Maybe you need a big bomber to deliver it.
- Henry: $GD I went looking for news and found nothing today. On Thursday Biden decided to allow military contractors to go to Ukraine.
- StockMarketMentor: Just added $OCUL with a basis of 9.80 and a suggested stop at 8.95. Removing $AAPL from the ATI list. Removing $GD. Trapped in consolidation and it'll likely take a while (or a war) for this one to break out. Keeping $DVA even though the stop got tagged yesterday. I think the homebuilders ($LEN $DHI $TOL) are going to grind around here for a while. Either be patient or be gone. Have a good weekend! --Dan

StockMarketMentor: ...
$GD -- Gap and reverse. This works. Big washout today, and price discovery higher.
$IBKR -- still going
$LEN -- working
$META -- New ATH today. High volume.
$NTRA -- working well.
$NVDA -- testing 50-day ma. This is not working. ... - Henry: $LMT $GD $RTX war stocks are doing great. long GD RTX
- bigbartabs: @Henry $LMT $GD $RTX ... I'm surprised that these 3 aren't up even more. I'm also guessing that the DOW30... $DJI $DIA $UDOW... will grow stronger since so many major industrial product makers in the DJI will be in demand for military class products.
- djgustoso: @bigbartabs @henry $LMT $GD $RTX $DJI $DIA $UDOW dont forget about $BAH fd it's my enoloyer, but that's not why I'm posting it lol. Right underneath it's ATH
- Henry: $HII $GD I don't know if this is a true story or not, but HII is a competitor to GD and it has discovered intentionally faulty welds on subs and ships built at Newport News. This would be bad for HII and good for GD, but there is no mention of this story in TOS
- scottrades: $GD Huge volume on Friday
- Henry: @scottrades $GD $LMT & $RTX all had big volume days on Friday. RTX was on a down day.

StockMarketMentor: ...
$GD: Risk is very low on this one so I'm leaving the stop at 294.40.
$META: From current levels, the risk on this one is about 6.5%. I'm leaving this alone for now. META is still in a bit of a trading range and near the top of that range. But ... -
StockMarketMentor: ...
$GD -- Pulling back to test $300.
$SAVA -- Basis is 31.75. Just getting started.
$TSM -- Squeezing, though I am not expecting much from this right now. Not my best trade idea.
That's it! CMM members, don't forget about Scott's awesome tr ... - wineinquirer: @StockMarketMentor $IBKR $DASH $META $DVA $LEN $DHI $TOL $NTRA $FRPT $TGTX $GD $SAVA $TSM FRPT breakout looks to be 143, not 443?
- DAN: @wineinquirer $IBKR $DASH $META $DVA $LEN $DHI $TOL $NTRA $FRPT $TGTX $GD $SAVA $TSM Got it! Thanks for noticing that, wineinquirer.
- Henry: $GD Gap up this morning

StockMarketMentor: ...
The other stocks on the list are $FRPT $NTRA $TSM $NVDA $DVA and $GD. Those are all intact and I'll be considering some stop adjustments today.
As always, I caution you about buying on a Friday, particularly after such a sharp move higher thro ... - Mounty: $GD holding the breakout

StockMarketMentor: ...
General Dynamics ($GD) is holding yesterday's volatility and is back at our 302.68 entry point.
Service Now ($NOW) is making a stealth run out of a 7-month base. I think the path of least resistance is higher, albeit at a modest rate.
The hom ... - bigbartabs: @StockMarketMentor $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW ... I yearn for the days when the FED would simply make interest rate changes with a news headline. The consternation that they now cloak the US in by jawboning for months, keeping everyone on edge is ridiculous. By the way... I feel your pain of fire risk. We have lived in the Sierra foothills south of Hiway 50, same spot, for 42 years. It now takes me a month in spring, and a month in fall to keep our acreage with trimmed trees up 10 feet, the ground weed wacked, and my iPhone "Watch Duty" app primed for fire alerts. All the best Dan... fires like you have where you are, well, suck. Very stressful... hang in there... but be ready to leave if your gut tells you to.
- Nepenthe: @bigbartabs #OT $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW Speaking of which, I just returned from abroad to an evacuation warning. Who would have thunk it here in Reno. We're on hold for the moment but we're expecting 40mph winds on the valley floor, and up to 70 in the higher elevations of the Sierra. The Davis Fire, named after the creek where it started, a recreational area from which I do a lot of hiking along Ophir Creek up to Mt. Rose, scene of the Slide Mountain landslide in the 80's. More than likely started by a campfire. We'll just never learn. Cheers.
- champ: @Nepenthe $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW #OT.....Stay safe...Good Luck!
- joelsg1: @Nepenthe $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW #OT Read that Jeremy Renner evacuated, not far from my place though not there now. Best wishes.
- Nepenthe: @joelsg1 $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW #OT To you as well. Sounds like you're closer than we are. We're in Southwest Reno. I guess that corridor up the Mt. Rose highway is the breaking point. If it breaches towards the north, that could be catastrophic. My wife's doing the clothes; I the wine, beer and bourbon. Stay safe.
- bigbartabs: @joelsg1 $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW #OT ... so you used to be one of Nepenthe's and my neighbors? Where are you at now?
- joelsg1: @bigbartabs $ORCL $PLTR $GD $NOW #OT SoCal where we have lots of fires this season though thankfully none nearby now though it has been over 110 past week. Our plans to get back to No. Tahoe on hold.
- Henry: $GD a timely add to the ATL
- RichardinME: $GD just added 100 shares at 102.20. Seems very low risk and that stop will keep me out of trouble:)
- woodman: @RichardinME $GD - Good using a stop. Be mindful of the wicking/topping candle (aka shooting star) today at resistance (multi-top) area. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/shootingstar.asp
- champ: @DavidK $DJT ...$AMZN $AVGO $AAPL $NVDA $DELL $GE $GD.....We will all know what the #Markets-think, in-the-PM, at 8:15 ET, #before that CPI-report, in the morning........ and like I said, the close today will be in play, for sure, for some Swing-Betting.... .....and I wouldn't be surprised, to see a light Green close. Good Luck! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- BarryC: $GD WW
- StockMarketMentor: Per my comments during this morning’s training session, I have added two stocks to the Active Trading List. Remember that this market is very heavy and volatile. So any trades should be small and only added to if your position becomes profitable. Respect the volatility, because it does not respect you. $JPM — Basis 217.81 Stop 207.90 $GD — Basis 302.68 Stop 294.40 Have a good evening. —Dan
- Henry: $GD At least one company in America knows how to build a plane https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/jeff-bezos-new-80-million-ride
- traderbren: $GD and $LHX poised to push higher.
- Henry: $GD $RTX $LMT defense stocks have rolled over.
- Henry: $GD reported with a 1 cent miss. They make Gulfstream jets, subs, armored vehicles, military electronics and ammo. They are sharing a $3 billion contract with another company to produce "medium caliber ammo" That's a heck of a lot of ammo.
- camaro69: $EME,$VLO,$WFRD,$GD a few that hit ATH today at one point
- Henry: $GD gapping up on no news ?
- Henry: $RTX $GD $NOC all breaking out of squeezes DEFENSE DEFENSE
- camaro69: $GD, $HWM,MAR,V, ELF,COST,$PGR,$TRV ATH today and $NVDA

- camaro69: At or near ATH $VRTX, $V, $GD, $COST $ANET and $GE trying to BO
- Henry: $GD might be the best chart in the defense industry. Reported yesterday and broke out of a squeeze today. I've be long a long time, not one of my better performers. The red line goes back to a high on 12/22
- marklesparkle: @Henry $GD Henry you watch CNBC. What happened to Diedra Bosa. I hope she didnt drag up I'm in love with her
- Docoof: All up big: $NOC $GD $RTX $LMT $DFEN etc.

DAN: ...
Other stocks to watch: Every single defense stock. They are all up too high to buy...but are definitely stocks to watch. Nobody loves war more than Lockheed Martin ($LMT) Northrop Grumman ($NOC) L3Harris ($LHX), Huntington Ingalls ($HII) and General ... - texgecko: Update... $CAH is the top stock on my own TC 2000 list. Top stocks in $SPY, currently trending in the TC200 user universe, are $GD $NOC $HII
- traderbren: @DAN $ITA - yep, I was looking at $RTX, $LMT, $GD, $AVAV ..etc yesterday. It looks like we won't be producing any arms for a long time and funding won't occur....which we know is not the case.
- DavidK: @traderbren $ITA $RTX $LMT $GD $AVAV $RTX chart looks like it has been thrown to the gutter like McCarthy.
- Henry: $GD For all the money we funnel to defense companies, they aren't great stocks. $GD has broken the down trend, it's in a squeeze and close to resistance, call it $229 The bad news is the 200 is above the 50, but the stock has held above the 200 ema all month. I've been long for a long time and I'm going to give it a couple weeks to see how the squeeze plays out.
- Henry: $GD Ad during yesterday's Nascar race for buildsubmarines.com The company is looking for employees. The have filled a gap, coming out of a squeeze and the stock is now above the 200 ema. Entering the accumulation phase. long-long term
- Henry: $GD not a @Dan chart, but will be breaking out of a squeeze this am after earnings. Record backlog. long-long term
- Docoof: @Henry $GD Trapped below 220.00 since May 2. Now above it premarket. 200d overhead at 229.24. BB w 3.36%. I’ll be watching. Thanks.
- Henry: @Docoof $GD fading away
- Henry: @bigbartabs $ITA $DFEN I don't see a lot happening volume wise in $GD $LMT $NOC. LMT just sold 20 C-130's to Australia. Did you know these babies go for 330 mil a piece!??
- bigbartabs: @Henry $ITA $DFEN $GD $LMT $NOC ... I have a hunch that its continued rumblings of US defense not being prioritized / supported.
- traderbren: #Defense - interesting to note that the defense names - $RTX, $NOC, $LMT, $GD, $AVAV - are trading like there's no more wars to be fought! ;-)
- Bf: $LMT $NOC $GD #defense working, $LMT breaking out np, $NOC above the 50dma, $GD retesting the 50dma on strong volume but cannot break the 200dma
- Docoof: $GD BB w < 3%. (~2.62%) Ditto: $MNST
- Docoof: $GD BB w < 4%.
- Docoof: $GD Trying to squeeze up above 250. BB w = 4%. ATH = 256.86. Volume is well below avg.
- Mounty: $GD, $RTX, $LMT, $NOC, $HII any one know of any news which would account for huge moves on huge volume right after close yesterday in many of the defense names?
- Dlkayoda: @Mounty $GD $RTX $LMT $NOC $HII I read China launched a test run rocket dangerously near Taiwan. Got me thinking about the draft and war. Maybe investors are thinking the same.
- Docoof: Industry Group: Aerospace/Defense. Industry Group Rank (1 to 197): 60. Friday: $GD ATH $CW ATH $LMT ATH $HEI ATH $CVU 1-yr high $ITA The iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF. New 1-yr high on Friday, as noted by mopick. Top 7 holdings: $RTX, $LMT, $BA, $GD, $TXT, $NOC, and $HWM. I was too early with $HWM last month. Probably giving it a second try with a decent volume move above 39.25.
- Roadrunner: $gd $RTX $LMT defense names breaking out.
- mopick: @Roadrunner $gd $RTX $LMT, $ITA is the ETF which has all these obviously if you don't want to play with just one of these, breaking out as well.
- issues: @Roadrunner $gd $RTX $LMT We also have $LDOS , $DFEN, $AJRD and $HON. Maybe anticipating a conservative congress?

- woodman: Some of the bigger participants in the the military defense sector are back to and trying to firm up around their 50d's. Worth watching here: $LMT $RTX $GD $AVAV.
- Pokersmith: Defense names strong on $LMT miss. Must be forward looking expectations....see also : $GD

- champ: @woodman $RTX $GD $LMT $NOC $LHX $DFEN #News ...Yes sir and anyone of these trades might work, I'm holding $RTX.....#BriefingTrader is working $RTX ...this morning. LOL
- debeers: @Docoof $LMT $BAC $ITA $RTX $BA $TXT $TDG $GD $LHX $NOCS $HWM $AXON -Now you see why sometimes an ETF isn't the way to go. Why take the scar of $BA when you should (in my opinion) have the star of the group in Lockeed Martin$LMT.Put another way, there's no need to saddle your returns with laggards when you can just have the ouperformer.
- Pokersmith: @mopick $LMT see ALSO.....$NOC , $LHX , $GD 📈
- mopick: @Pokersmith $LMT $NOC $LHX $GD, yes, or the ETF, $ITA, although it has $BA in it which negates the move for me.
- Pokersmith: @mopick $LMT $NOC $LHX $GD $ITA $BA right, that's exactly why I didn't mention it 👍
- Pokersmith: In the have to own some category....see : $LMT $GD $RTX Also in the "no brainer " category
