WATCH THIS ‘OFFENSE’ STOCK WHEN TENSIONS RUN HIGH
Today’s chart highlights the potential of defense stocks…

We’re talking about Raytheon (RTN).
This $61 billion company makes precision weapons, military electronics, and other defense products.
And the business of war is going strong…
Raytheon recently reported its 2017 annual revenue increased 5% over the year before. In the fourth quarter alone, Raytheon drew around $6.8 billion in net sales – up 8% from the same quarter in 2016.
As you can see in the chart below, Raytheon shares are up nearly 45% over the past year, soaring to new record highs. As the government continues to spend more on defense, expect shares of this “offense” contractor to keep surging…
I recently visited Mar-a-Lago... And now I'm prepared to put my reputation on the line. Since 1998, my proprietary system would've returned 13,126% in backtests.
