Q: Hi team,

I'm interested in adding two defense companies to my holdings, for a 3-5 year period (perhaps longer) and I'm interested to know which companies you would recommend considering?
The companies that I'm looking at right now include LMT, NOC, RTX, GM, BA, HON. Are there other companies I should also be looking at?
Could you please rank the listed companies in order of preference?

Thank you for all that you do!

Q: Hello Folks:
For a number of years I was a satisfied Boeing shareholder, but switched to NOC and RTX when Boeing's problems surfaced (taking a $100.00 hit), subsequently investing in NOC and RTX.
As of today, how would you view and compare these companies potential; I do regret not re-purchasing BA when it was down as it is a strong contender in the industry, however do have companies such as GE in my rear view mirror.

Thanks so much for your good service

Q: Significant infrastructure is being planned in the U.S., also in the defense sector. Would any of these stocks listed (or others) benefit more or less from this initiative?
Thank you for your insights!

Q: What is your opinion of Maxar Technologies. With the current interest in everything `space'. Maxr has a pretty decent P/S and P/E ratio.
ARK funds are also launching a new fund ARKX focused on `Space exploration companies'. Could you suggest which companies would be included in that EFT ?
lastly. SPCE has seen an absurd jump these last 2 days. Is this due to the ARK ETF or REDIT crowd jumping in and causing a short sqeeze.
Thanks and Have a wonderful day. !

Q: While it is difficult to pull away from my tech holdings, to diversify some US holdings I am considering purchases of Treehouse and Northrop Grumann. Even though these are USA stocks, if possible, would you please give your analysis of whether these companies are good investments at this time...are they a buy or not, and why? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: Hi Peter and associates,

I have a position on NOC for a couple of years. It's spare price has gone up by about 75% since and now accounts for about 4% of my portfolio.

Morning Star just downgraded NOC to 3 stars today. Just wondering whether is it time for me to bail on NOC or at least take some money off the . Also how much stock should an investor put in such rating changes (whether up or down) in general.

Best Regards,

Q: Hi,

In light of the Donald's proposed 54 billion dollar budget to increase defence spending, including new aircraft carriers,

Would you suggest buying the rumour ?

From what I gather, chances are this will not pass in its current incarnation.

And if you were inclined to beef up defence in your portfolio, what stocks, mid to large caps would be your preference for a basket of stocks ( I prefer to avoid sector ETFs). Can you rank them ?

Thank you,

Karim
