Defense & Aerospace Sector Stocks primed for next move!

You would think with he current Woe’s of Boeing (BA) that the Defense & Aerospace Sector would be struggling at the moment. The Dow upward movement may have been stifled in the last few weeks due to BA.  But this pull back in the Defence & Aerospace sector has lots of Defense Stocks ready to move higher on an Elliott 5th Wave Move.

$XAR, which tracks an equal-weighted index of US aerospace & defense companies has already started its 5th Wave move. The $XAR Chart below on the Weekly time-frame show the move really got started January 2019. The “BA Pullback” was a slight blip, but quickly formed a higher support level. Our Automated target zone in our Elliott Wave Indicator Suite is now showing a 5th Wave target of $110 for this ETF.

So this longer term view should give investors confidence that stocks in this Defense & Aerospace Sector have more room to grow this year.

Lockheed Martin (LMT)

Let me discuss just a couple of examples in the Defense & Aerospace sector. Firstly, Lockheed Martin’s F-35 production will be ramped up soon with spending not just from the US.  BUT from the UK as it has two Brand new Aircraft carriers to fill and a Retired Tornado fleet to replace.

I am already long on $LMT at $300.55 by trading an Elliott Wave, 5th Wave move on the Daily Time-Frame. Our automated target zone giving a potential price of around $318 for this current move.  A 2:1 Reward to Risk.  The chart below shows the entry, stop and target levels.

This is a great example of using Sector ETF’s, basic fundamentals and combining with sensible technical indicators.

Axon Enterprise Inc (AAXN)

Axon Enterprise Inc is a favourite growth stock in the Defense & Aerospace sector with inclusion in many ETFs.   This company, formally known as TASER International is totally different to LMT. The company manufactures security systems for law enforcement and military worldwide.  Its share price is up 250% in less than a year and has more room to grow to our $90 target price.

The chart below shows our entry at $55.48 on this potential Elliott 5th Wave move on the Weekly Time-Frame. Our automated 5th wave target zone is giving our $90 price target.  This target price could be as much as 25 weeks away, so a longer-term investment.  With the recent close at $60.32, there is still chance to get in this high growth stock.

How many more stocks in this sector on a 5th wave move?

Looking through the Defense & Aerospace Sector we can see around 70% of these stocks are ready to go or on their way! Obviously, differences between weekly and daily timeframe Elliott Wave counts will dictate trading or longer-term investment opportunities.  We urge you to conduct your own analysis and invite you to use our Elliott Wave Indicator suite. Which is available for the ThinkorSwim, TradeStation, Muti-Charts and NinjaTrader Broker Platforms.

Swing trading, Day trading, short-term trading, options trading, and futures trading are extremely risky undertakings. They generally are not appropriate for someone with limited capital, little or no trading experience, and/or a low tolerance for risk. Never execute a trade unless you can afford to and are prepared to lose your entire investment. All trading operations involve serious risks, and you can lose your entire investment. No trades are recommendations or advice and we cannot be sued for losses of capital. All trades are for educational purposes only.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
