Rotate to Asian tech stocks.
There is a rotation from US mega-cap tech stocks to Asian tech leaders like Samsung and TSMC, as strong AI earnings and the global search for diversification drive outperformance. Asian tech companies are now challenging the Mag7, and investors are moving capital to the Far East.

European defense spending structurally benefits Hensoldt.
Hensoldt is experiencing a structural demand shift in Germany and Europe as defense budgets increase significantly, driven by geopolitical tensions like the Iran war and US troop withdrawal. The company's record order intake, rising profitability, and investments in technology (sensors, radar, software) position it to benefit from sustained long-term defense spending growth.
