RTX stock hits fresh high on FAA radar deal — can the rally hold into earnings?

RTX stock hits fresh high on FAA radar deal — can the rally hold into earnings?

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 15:34 EST RTX shares were down 1.8% at $187.06 in afternoon New York trading on Wednesday after earlier touching $193.73, as investors pushed the aerospace and defense contractor to another new high in a choppy session. The move matters now because RTX is tied into two big pipes of spending at once: a U.S. push to rebuild air traffic control infrastructure and a longer-running surge in defense orders. Those programs tend to stretch over years, the kind of work that can steady revenue even when the cycle turns. It also lands just weeks before RTX

GE Aerospace stock rises on supersonic test update — what traders are watching next

GE Aerospace stock rises on supersonic test update — what traders are watching next

New York, January 6, 2026, 13:24 EST — Regular session GE Aerospace stock was up about 0.7% at $326.65 on Tuesday, after a contractor said it had wrapped up a supersonic flight test campaign tied to GE’s high-speed propulsion work. The disclosure keeps attention on defense-linked development programs as the Pentagon backs newer propulsion options and seeks faster test cycles. For GE, any sign of progress in advanced propulsion adds to a narrative that goes beyond its core jet-engine aftermarket business. The update also comes with the company’s next quarterly report in view. GE Aerospace is scheduled to hold its

Lockheed, RTX in focus as U.S. attack on Venezuela puts defense stocks on watch for Monday

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 09:49 ET — Market closed U.S. defense stocks will be in focus when Wall Street reopens on Monday after President Donald Trump said the United States carried out strikes in Venezuela and captured President Nicolas Maduro in a surprise raid.  Reuters The weekend operation landed as investors start the year with geopolitics back at the center of the tape, a backdrop that can shift money quickly between sectors. Defense contractors, which rely heavily on U.S. government spending, are often treated as a hedge when conflict headlines rise. The raid, dubbed Operation Absolute Resolve, involved more

RTX stock jumps to start 2026 as defense names catch a bid; jobs report, earnings loom

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:19 ET — Market closed RTX Corp shares ended the first trading session of 2026 higher, tracking broad gains across U.S. aerospace and defense names as investors returned from the holiday lull. The move matters because January’s early data-heavy calendar can reset expectations for interest rates and growth, which often drives positioning across cyclicals and industrials. Reuters It also comes as defense stocks globally have been drawing renewed inflows, with investors leaning into companies tied to government spending and long-cycle backlogs.

The aerospace-and-defense contractor traded between $182.20 and $187.68, with about 3.3 million shares changing hands.

RTX sits at the crossroads of military demand and commercial aerospace cycles through its Raytheon defense unit, Pratt & Whitney jet engines and Collins Aerospace components. That

Defense and space stocks jump to start 2026 as Boeing, Rocket Lab lead gains

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 13:12 ET — Market closed U.S. aerospace, defense and space-linked stocks rose sharply on Friday, led by Boeing and Rocket Lab, as investors returned to the group on the first trading day of 2026. MarketWatch The move matters because the sector sits at the intersection of two market themes that have been driving flows into January: geopolitical risk and government-backed demand. Defense contractors typically draw buyers when investors want revenue visibility, since much of their work is tied to multi-year contracts. Investing The rally also came as Wall Street steadied after a late-December slide, with

RTX stock snaps losing streak near a 52-week high — what to watch before Monday’s open

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 05:44 ET — Market closed. RTX Corp shares closed up 2.1% at $187.25 on Friday, snapping a four-session losing streak and finishing within 0.4% of a 52-week high, MarketWatch data showed.

It also lands at a moment when markets are hunting for a new narrative after 2025’s run, with defense and aerospace stocks often acting as a crossroads trade between geopolitics and the economic cycle.

RTX stock today: Pratt & Whitney settlement in focus as Wall Street shuts for New Year’s Day

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 18:48 ET — Market closed RTX’s Pratt & Whitney Canada unit has settled an antitrust lawsuit accusing it of blocking competition in sales of used regional aircraft engines and parts, a court filing showed. RTX shares (RTX.N) last closed down 0.33% at $183.40 on Dec. 31, the final session of 2025. The plaintiff, Universal Turbine Parts, had sought more than $150 million in damages; settlement terms were not disclosed.

Boeing stock today slips as year-end trading thins, despite $8.6B Pentagon F-15 deal

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:16 ET — Regular session Boeing shares were down about 0.4% at $217.61 in midday New York trading on Wednesday, underperforming only slightly in a subdued, year-end session. The move comes as Wall Street drifted lower in holiday-thin trading on the final session of 2025, with the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq all modestly in the red at midday. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity, pointing to profit-taking when liquidity is low.

GE Aerospace stock is up today as GE shares steady after ex-dividend reset

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 13:05 ET — Regular session GE Aerospace shares edged higher on Tuesday, up about 0.2% at $312.2 in afternoon trading in New York. The move comes in holiday-thin markets, when light liquidity can make small shifts in positioning look bigger than they are. For GE, the calendar matters: the stock began trading ex-dividend on Monday, meaning new buyers no longer qualify for the next quarterly payout. GE fell 1% on Monday and finished about 2% below its 52-week high of $318.06 set last week, while peers Honeywell and RTX slipped less, MarketWatch data showed. MarketWatch

RTX stock sets up Monday: Fed minutes, Taiwan drills and the $185 line

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 01:20 ET — Market closed. RTX Corp shares ended the last session lower, closing at $185.17 on Friday. The defense and aerospace contractor tracked declines across large defense names. The setup matters now because the final week of the year often brings thin trading and portfolio rebalancing, which can exaggerate moves even when company news is quiet. Investors have also kept a tight watch on interest-rate expectations heading into 2026. Reuters Geopolitics is also back on screens. China staged live-fire drills around Taiwan on Monday, a reminder that unexpected headlines can quickly reshape sentiment toward
