7 defense stocks you need to buy before 2023 ends - 3 of 7

 
 

#3 - RTX (NYSE:RTX)

RTX (NYSE: RTX) is the combination of the Raytheon Technologies Corporation, Collins Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney. The company claims that approximately 50% of the world is protected by RTX products. 

The company continues to post year-over-year (YoY) gains in revenue and earnings, and with a substantial backlog of projects, this pattern is likely to continue well into the future. That will allow investors to focus on other fundamentals like the company's $9 billion free cash flow expected in 2025.  

RTX stock is up 51% in the last three years but is still well below its all-time close of $150.20 in late 2019. This gives investors a long runway for future growth and includes a modest dividend that currently has a 2.87% yield
