On today's program, sponsored by HIl, Byron Callan of the independent Washington research firm Capital Alpha Partners discusses implications of President Biden’s decision against standing for reelection; whether defense sentiment would change if Vice President Harris’ running mate is a former military leader like Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., or retired Adm. Bill McRaven; why defense stocks in 2024-25 are unlikely to perform as they did in 2016; why 2025 will be a pivotal year for the Russo-Ukrainian war; the US Air Force's agreement with Boeing to start development work on the E-7 radar plane and decision to accept Block 40 TR3 versions of the F-35 Lightning Il fighter; expectations from the Farnborough International Airshow and earnings expectations from leading US firms; why US defense stocks have lagged the broader market; and a look at the week ahead with Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian.
