Select Defense stocks poised for a run
Reading recent postings on Barrons Online below indicate it may be time to take a look again at defense stocks
Northrop Grumman: Full Speed Ahead!
"There may be reasons to worry long term, but the pessimism has been overdone in the short- and medium-term," says Myles Walton, an analyst with Oppenheimer. "Even if defense spending has peaked, the drop will hurt some, like Northrop, much less than others."
Walton thinks the shares are ripe for a recovery to more than $60 during the next 12 to 18 months, for a gain of more than 56%. (For another defense-stock candidate, see "A Defense Stock With an Arsenal of Cash," last week's Barrons.com piece about Lockheed.)
