GE Vernova shares are trading higher after Morgan Stanley raised the price target from $301 to $367 on the stock

President-elect Donald Trump's proposed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, is raising questions about the future of U.S. defense contractors <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/41927289/trump-appoints-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-to-lead-doge-targeting-bureaucracy-and-65-trillion-federal-spending-we-will-not-go-gently">and government IT firms. </a>
Could the defense budget flatten—or even fall? And who stands to gain in this new sector shake up?
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">DOGE Puts Defense Budget Under Pressure</h3>
Trump's plan to restructure federal agencies and reduce wasteful spending through DOGE is a bold move, and its potential ripple effects are hard to ignore—especially for defense and government IT companies. 
With the Department of Defense (DoD) being one of the largest slices of federal spending, investors are understandably focused on what's next for defense stocks in a DOGE-driven world.
On one hand, Trump's campaign has consistently expressed support for strengthening the U.S. military. 
On the other, it's hard to make sweeping government cuts without touching the $877 billion defense budget, which accounts for 13% of federal spending as of 2023.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Defense Spending At All-Time Highs Spells Risks</h3>
Historically, defense spending runs in decades-long cycles. Investment in the sector experiences periods of growth followed by downturns, and we may be nearing the peak of the current cycle, according to Goldman Sachs analyst Noah Poponak.
 &#8220;The defense budget is at an all-time high, which creates difficult comparisons and challenging base effects,&#8221; the analyst said in a note published Friday. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Key Risks For Defense Stocks</h3>
<ol>
<li>Peak Spending: The defense budget is hovering at historical highs, making future growth difficult.</li>
<li>Geopolitical Shifts: If major conflicts ease, defense spending could decline.</li>
<li>Government Debt: U.S. debt-to-GDP ratios are near record levels, increasing pressure to curb federal spending.</li>
</ol>
Margins in the defense industry are already under pressure due to Pentagon efforts to shift risks onto contractors. Fixed pricing on long-term contracts, for example, has eroded unit economics. 
At the same time, defense stocks – as tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XAR#NYSE">XAR</a>) – are trading at valuations above historical averages, leaving them vulnerable to a "de-rating" if the budget flattens or falls.
&#8220;It is difficult to embark on any large government spending reduction effort without touching defense, and there are potentially enough inefficiencies within the defense budget to reduce its total level without necessarily reducing military readiness or capability,&#8221; Poponak said. 
The investment bank maintains a cautious stance on the defense sector, issuing Sell ratings for Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>), Northrop Grumman Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>), L3Harris Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LHX#NYSE">LHX</a>), and Huntington Ingalls Industries Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HII#NYSE">HII</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Government IT: Winners In The Efficiency Game?</h3>
While defense hardware could take a hit, government IT firms might find themselves potentially on the winning side of DOGE. 
The sector has been outperforming traditional defense industries in revenue growth, driven by a market share shift toward advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, data analytics, and cybersecurity.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why IT Could Shine:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Tech-Driven Efficiency: DOGE's focus on cutting waste could emphasize the adoption of technologies that streamline government operations.</li>
<li>Advanced Capabilities: Firms offering cutting-edge solutions may be seen as key enablers of government efficiency.</li>
<li>Resilient Demand: Even with DoD cuts, IT spending for Operations &amp; Maintenance and national security could remain strong.</li>
</ul>
Goldman Sachs believes that companies like Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAH#NYSE">BAH</a>) and Leidos Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LDOS#NYSE">LDOS</a>) are well-positioned to benefit.
On the flip side, SAIC Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAIC#NYSE">SAIC</a>) faces challenges due to slower growth and tougher competition, earning it a Sell rating from Goldman Sachs.
The bottom line is that Investors should prepare for a sector shakeup, as the creation of DOGE could mark a significant shift in federal spending priorities.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy ZLAB Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instruments.
For example, in Zai Lab&#8217;s case, it is in the Health Care sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, ZLAB has a 52-week high of $36.50 and a 52-week low of $13.48.

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASTS#NASDAQ">ASTS</a>) shares are moving lower on Friday after the company reported worse-than-expected 2024 third-quarter fiscal earnings after the bell <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41994523">on Thursday</a>.
What Happened: AST SpaceMobile shares fell about 13% after the company released earnings on Thursday. The earnings report included a loss of $1.10 per share, missing analyst estimates of a loss of 20 cents per share.
Furthermore, the company reported sales of $1.10 million, missing analyst estimates of $24.13 million. AST SpaceMobile reported other key pieces of financial data, including adjusted operating expenses of $45.3 million.
The company incurred about $374 million of gross capitalized property and equipment costs. It also reported $518.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. 
Stepping back from finances, the company announced several key agreements, such as launch service agreements with Blue Origin for launches in 2025 and 2026. These agreements will enable the orbital deployment of up to 60 Block 2 BlueBird satellites.
The company&#8217;s coverage will initially target key markets, including the U.S., Japan, and Europe.
Additionally, the company achieved initial validation of its AST5000 ASIC chip, with the necessary infrastructure in place for commissioning in 2025. The combination of the new chip and the larger Block 2 array will support enhanced data transmission.
&#8220;We achieved many significant milestones in the quarter and continue our momentum with several key pieces now in place,&#8221; said Abel Avellan, founder, chairman and CEO of AST SpaceMobile. 
&#8220;With the first five BlueBird satellites successfully unfolded and entering initial operations, our business is progressing according to plan. We&#8217;ve advanced our strategy across multiple efforts including progress on securing orbital launch capacity, growing our manufacturing capability, and expanding our customer ecosystem.&#8221;
Following the earnings report, UBS analyst Christopher Schoell maintained a Buy rating on AST SpaceMobile and raised the price target from&nbsp;$30&nbsp;to&nbsp;$31.

Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPB#NYSE">SPB</a>) shares are <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" rel="noreferrer noopener">trading lower on Friday.</a>
The company reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings per share of 97 cents, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b42004018/spectrum-brands-holdings-reports-fiscal-2024-fourth-quarter" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the street view of $1.07</a>. Quarterly revenues were $773.7 million (+4.5%), beating the analyst consensus of $747.51 million.
Gross profit surged 17.8% to $288 million. Gross profit and margin increased due to productivity improvements, operational efficiencies, and inventory actions in the prior year, partially offset by ocean freight inflation.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased $42.6 million, driven by $32.5 million of lower investment income and $25.9 million of increased brand-focused investments, offset by gross profit improvements.
As of the fiscal year-end, the company reported a cash balance of $369 million and total liquidity of $860 million, including undrawn capacity on its cash flow revolver.
It had $578 million in outstanding debt, consisting of $496 million in senior unsecured notes and around $82 million in finance lease obligations, resulting in a net debt of approximately $209 million.
Outlook: Spectrum Brands expects low single-digit growth in reported net sales in fiscal 2025 and adjusted EBITDA to increase by mid to high single-digits. Adjusted free cash flow is expected to be approximately<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance"> 50% of adjusted EBITDA.</a>
The company continues to target a long-term net leverage ratio of 2.0 &#8211; 2.5 times.
&#8220;I am excited about the upcoming year. Our focus during fiscal 2025 will be to continue the momentum we built in fiscal 2024 by investing in our brands to drive long-term growth, in innovation to expand core and adjacent categories, and in our operations to drive further cost improvement, quality and safety,&#8221; said David Maura, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Spectrum Brands.
Price Action: SPB shares are trading lower by 4.78% to $89.38&nbsp;at last check Friday.

Today's Biggest Pre-Market Stock Movers: 10 Top Gainers and Losers on Wednesday

Stardust Power (SDST) has provided an update. Upon completion of a significant business combination, a company and its key stakeholders solidified ...

Stardust Power Solidifies Growth with Strategic Financial Agreements

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Just days after its listing on the Nasdaq exchange, Stardust Power (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/sdst-stock-quote/">SDST</a>) stock is skyrocketing. Indeed, SDST closed up by more than 140% today for seemingly no reason at all.



Stardust is a <a href="https://quantisnow.com/insight/stardust-power-shares-are-up-by-more-than-100-what's-going-on-5613023">U.S. manufacturer of battery-grade lithium products</a>. It&rsquo;s primary lithium refinery is based in Muskogee, Oklahoma. The company expects to reach a capacity of 50,000 tonnes of lithium per year by 2030.



There hasn&rsquo;t been much news related to Stardust recently, so today&rsquo;s jump certainly comes as a head scratcher. 



The newest development for the company is an <a href="https://www.tipranks.com/news/company-announcements/stardust-power-solidifies-growth-with-strategic-financial-agreements">update that Stardust provided last week</a> on the completion of a business combination between the company and its &ldquo;key stakeholders&rdquo; made through several strategic agreements. The agreements essentially serve to give some stockholders additional registration rights for company stock and warrants.



Still, that&rsquo;s not exactly a rally trigger by most standards. 



<h2>SDST Stock Soars Just a Week After Going Public</h2>



As mentioned, Stardust is relatively new to Wall Street. Just last week, on July 11, founder and CEO Roshan Pujari rang the opening bell at the Nasdaq to celebrate the firm&rsquo;s new listing. Along with expressing excitement over its new publicly traded status, Pujari shared some of the company&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.stocktitan.net/news/SDST/stardust-power-to-ring-the-nasdaq-stock-market-opening-aoh953hixlnn.html">promising goals and expectations going forward</a>.



&ldquo;Bolstering domestic lithium production is a critical national security priority for the United States, and we are aligned with the government to meet this demand and help our country achieve lithium independence,&rdquo; Pujari said. &ldquo;Already, we are expected to be eligible for up to&nbsp;$257 million&nbsp;in state incentives for our strategically central 66-acre facility build-out in Oklahoma, and there are many federal incentive programs Stardust Power may be eligible for under the Department of Energy and the Department of Defense.&rdquo;



After today&rsquo;s jump, SDST stock is trading for about $24.50 per share, up from about $11 at the start of the day. While it&rsquo;s unclear what&rsquo;s driving this upshot, fans of SDST are likely thrilled regardless.
