RTX stock slides after Raytheon’s Pentagon missile deal as investors eye the next checkpoint
RTX shares fell 3.4% to $196.74 Wednesday and were flat after hours, following Raytheon’s announcement of seven-year Pentagon contracts to sharply increase missile production. The company said Tomahawk output will rise from 60 to over 1,000 annually, with similar boosts for AMRAAM and SM-6 missiles. RTX also reported new commercial aerospace deals and set an investor event for Feb. 18.
