Biggest risk

What would change my mind?

Commentary

Market commentary is cautiously constructive with analyst targets clustered in the low-70s and some higher-outlier views near $81 [#SERP-1]. Recent company activity (rights offering announcement, earnings releases) has driven attention to near-term capitalization and defense-market positioning [#8-K-2026-03-30] [#SERP-3]. Overall tone: mixed-to-cautious with upside tied to funding uptake and contract wins.
