Source, summary and reference
The defense sector shows mixed signals. While some companies like KTOS have experienced significant pullbacks from recent highs, analysts believe there's potential for a rebound. The stock's current price at $70.63 is near a key support level around $61.86, with a target price of $98.28. However, broader market sentiment and potential government spending changes could influence future performance. Leidos (LDOS) presents a more optimistic outlook, with strong analyst buy ratings and a target price of $208.77, despite recent price weakness. The company's involvement in AI and cybersecurity, alongside significant government contracts, suggests a resilient growth trajectory. Investors are closely watching upcoming earnings reports for both companies to confirm these trends.

MarketBeat analyst Chris Markoch joins us with three defense stocks that are built for the next generation of warfare, and that institutions are still largely ignoring right now. Chris breaks down why the future of military spending looks nothing like the past, which companies are positioned to lead that shift, and why the recent pullback in some of these names may actually be creating a better entry point for investors who missed last year's run. If you want to know where defense dollars are flowing before the big money catches on — this is the video to watch.
