Welcome to another Stock Investment Analysis Video. Today’s video focuses on the top four defense stocks, General Dynamics, L3Harris Technologies, Lockheed Martin, and Raytheon Technologies. These four industrial stocks are classified as being in the Aerospace & Defense Industry but I would also consider these to be tech stocks although perhaps not in the way we usually think of them. I will show you a little bit of why I think that is in this video but I will also demonstrate that in more in-depth analysis videos in the future. For this video, my goal is to show you which of these stocks are the best to invest in and stand above the rest.

Also, you may notice below this video, near the Thumbs up and Join buttons is an Applaud button which YouTube just added to my channel. If you want to show some support and appreciation, feel free to give some applause.

In this video, I break down these stocks and explain their characteristics; earnings, cash flow, and sales growth, forecasted growth and potential future share price appreciation, dividends and dividend growth, returns, valuation, margins, and company risk vs, safety. All four defense stocks have a good range of products and services ranging from submarines and destroyers to F-35 jets and Black Hawk Helicopters, to weapons and defense systems, to communications, artificial intelligence, and information technology.

If you are interested in General Dynamics stock, L3Harris Stock, Lockheed Martin stock, or Raytheon stock, make sure you watch this video. In this video, I compare L3Harris (LHX), General Dynamics (GD), Lockheed Martin (LMT), and Raytheon (RTX) on Company Characteristics, Historical Growth, Forecasted Growth, Dividends, Returns, Valuation, Margins, and Company Safety. Within those categories, I analyze a large number of variables including: price to earnings ratio, price to sales ratio, price to free cash flow ratio, price to book ratio, dividends, dividend yield, debt to equity ratio, fair value, target price, forward pe, the PEG ratio, EPS, EPS growth, dividend growth, return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), return on investment (ROI), normal PE, Piotroski score, forward price to sales, gross margins, operating margins, profit margins, long term debt to equity ratio, interest coverage, short term debt coverage, debt paydown yield, credit rating, current ratio, quick ratio, free cash flow yield, and beta. I compare the stocks on each of these metrics but also compare each stock to its own history.
