Volodymyr Zelenskiy
President of Ukraine
|
"He cannot let go of the very idea of war... in reality he is a slave to war." Zelenskiy argues that the aggressor is psychologically incapable of de-escalation. If the war is driven by an existential obsession rather than rational geopolitical goals, the conflict will be prolonged. A "forever war" scenario necessitates sustained and increasing defense spending by NATO and Western allies to support Ukraine and replenish depleted stockpiles. LONG. The thesis supports a secular bull market for defense contractors and aerospace firms. A sudden, unexpected diplomatic breakthrough or regime change in Russia could lead to a rapid de-rating of the defense sector. |

Raja Krishnamoorthi
Congressman (D-IL), Member of House Intelligence Committee & China Select Committee
|
"When you show weakness and you lower your deterrence, then you invite aggression... I'm more concerned about the Chinese Communist Party and their economic, military, and technological aggression." While the immediate focus is Iran, the Congressman's broader thesis is that the US is under-resourced in the Indo-Pacific. This bipartisan pressure (from Intel/China committees) supports sustained long-term defense spending, particularly for naval and aerial assets (Raytheon, Lockheed) required for dual-theater deterrence. Long Defense (ITA) as global instability (Middle East + China) acts as a tailwind for the sector. Budget sequestration or diversion of funds due to the government shutdown. |

Michael
Guest / Geopolitical Analyst
|
The speaker explicitly states, "I think we're going to do it again [strike Iran]... I think he was going to hit like Israel wants to do ballistic missile sites." He adds that Trump wants "something that's going to be measurable." A US-led military strike on Iran, specifically targeting ballistic missile sites and the IRGC, creates two immediate market reactions: * Kinetic Warfare: Increased demand for munitions and missile defense systems benefits US defense primes (ITA, RTX, LMT). * Geopolitical Risk Premium: Conflict in the Persian Gulf threatens the Strait of Hormuz, necessitating a risk premium on Oil (WTI, XLE) and driving capital into safe-haven assets like Gold (GLD). LONG Defense, Energy, and Gold as a hedge against imminent escalation in the Middle East. De-escalation or a diplomatic breakthrough would rapidly unwind the war premium in oil and gold. |

Gitanas Nausėda
President of Lithuania
|
The speaker confirms that US battalion rotations in Lithuania will be "prolonged for one and half, two years" and explicitly states that even if a peace deal is signed, Russia's "imperialistic ambitions... will be alive." The market often assumes a Ukraine peace deal = sell defense stocks. The speaker refutes this, arguing that the "peace" will require *higher* deterrence on the Eastern Flank (Lithuania/Poland). A frozen conflict or uneasy peace necessitates permanent militarization of the border, securing long-term contracts for US defense primes. LONG US Defense contractors as the "insurance policy" for European stability. A sudden, comprehensive détente between the US and Russia that includes demilitarization clauses (highly unlikely). |

Donald Trump
President of the United States
|
"We're investing also $1 trillion in our armed forces, most we've ever spent. And next year it's being raised... We're also purchasing 30 new and modified Abrams tanks... 48 new Blackhawk, Chinook, and King Stallion helicopters." The administration is shifting from "maintenance" to "expansion" with a specific focus on heavy hardware (tanks, helos) rather than just software or cyber. The explicit mention of increasing the budget *again* next year provides multi-year revenue visibility for prime contractors. The renaming to "Department of War" implies a higher operational tempo and consumption of munitions/equipment. Long Defense Primes and the Aerospace & Defense ETF (ITA). Specific beneficiaries include Lockheed Martin (Blackhawks/King Stallions) and Boeing (Chinooks). Budget appropriation delays or geopolitical de-escalation reducing urgency. |
