Stock Movers

Lockheed Gains, Constellation Brands Jump, Gap Climbs

On this episode of Stock Movers:

- It's been a pretty tumultuous week for Lockheed (LMT), but its shares are up today after Trump said on Truth Social that he wants to raise the US defense budget to $1.5 trillion, which is almost one and half times this year's budget. Other defense companies are also seeing a similar trajectory -- just yesterday, their stocks tumbled when Trump said he wanted to stop their dividends and buybacks.

- Constellation Brands (STZ) the company that makes your Modelo and Corona. Its shares rose to a more-than-five year high today, although later on, some investors turned cautious. Overall, investors were happy that its results beat estimates and it maintained its forecast. Things haven't been easy for alcohol makers. People, especially younger folks, are avoiding beers and wine, so the results were a relief. But then the company noted that tariffs are still affecting costs, and Hispanic customers, which they rely a lot on, are spending less on their drinks because they're worried about the economy and immigration issues.

- Shares of Gap (GAP) climbed today too, after UBS upgraded their rating of Gap to "buy" and raised their price target. UBS thinks that Gap's sales and profits will benefit from their growing beauty and handbag business, as well as their athleisure brand Athleta. UBS also think Gap and Old Navy had a strong holiday season, and the company will end up increasing their stock buybacks.
