Q: Looking to add to my defense holdings. Can i have your thoughts on Boeing...is it a value trap? Would you have any other picks in the space that aren't too extended or just go to an ETF? Thanks.
Q: Anduril Industries is a private defense technology company that focuses on developing autonomous systems and AI-powered platforms for military applications.
Supposed to IPO in 2026. Would you consider buying it then?
Any other similar public company's worth investing in?
Q: Is Boeing beginning to turn their situation around? What are the company fundamentals looking like now? Would you be interested or still staying clear?
Canada, and other countries, are apparently going to reinforce considerably their investment in defense. In that perspective which of the above companies do you consider, in order most promising for strong growth in the next five years ? And which one would you buy for a good diversification within the sector ? Any other companies not mentionned ?
Q: Given today's world politics, what are your views of defense stocks, both European and North American examples: AIRBUS, NOC, BA and European contractors etc?
Thank you again for your terrific service

Q: I've held Lockheed Martin (LMT) for 11 years and enjoyed a solid return of nearly 14% per annum, largely driven by the success of the global F-35 program, which has been a cornerstone of LMT’s revenue and earnings growth. However, with today’s announcement that Boeing has won the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) fighter jet contract—potentially worth over $20 billion initially and hundreds of billions over its lifetime—I’m concerned about the impact on LMT’s future growth and outlook. The loss of this high-profile sixth-generation fighter program to a competitor could signal a shift in market dynamics, especially given LMT’s historical dominance in advanced fighter jets. How do you assess the implications of this decision for LMT’s long-term growth trajectory, particularly in terms of its Aeronautics division and overall market position? I’m considering selling my position due to this turn of events, though it would mean realizing a significant capital gain in my taxable account, and I’d likely reinvest in another aerospace and defense industrial, such as Northrop Grumman or even Boeing itself. Could you share your analysis of how this contract loss might affect LMT’s valuation and growth prospects, and offer your thoughts on whether selling now and reallocating makes sense for an investor like me seeking both growth and stability?I'm a retired investor and do benefit from the dividend growth of LMT. Please factor into your overall comments. Thank you!
I'm trying to clean up my US Portfolio so that I'm at 20-25 equities total. Please advise which 20-25 companies you would keep for a 5-10+ hold with balance/diversification but also some growth in mind.
Recently we purchased a position ($210) in BA feeling it had good upside....now $165.00
Our other option at the time was GE
Did we make the wrong decision?
How do you consider upside of each of these 2 companies; would you feel we should take a BA loss to invest in GE.
In the past we have been long term investors of each of these two companies.
Perhaps neither has much up-side.
Thank you so much

Q: I have done well with boeing in a short period and while double checking it one of the rating services called it a five . In the same report it called textron a ten , they are both US so not your mandate but if you have any opinion on possibly switching from ba to txt I would appreciate it.
Q: Can I get your opinion of Boeing? It's been outperforming the market and peers over the last year or so and wonder if this a buy on any weakness...Thanks!
