Europe rearms, Arctic buildout, seabed drones: three tailwinds for defense
Three stories point the same way for US defense. NATO allies are pushing toward Trump's 5% GDP spending target while the Pentagon weighs pulling as many as 40,000 troops from Europe, shifting burden onto allies and hardware. Trump also secured a permanent US military buildout in Greenland, and navies are racing to guard seabed cables with underwater drones. Contractors like Lockheed Martin (LMT), RTX (RTX) and General Dynamics (GD) sit in the path of that spending.
