Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Northrop Grumman has won the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent and B-21 bomber programs, both of which should drive material top-line growth over the next few decades.

Bears

Northrop Grumman depends on US military funding for its sales, which is an inherently political and thus uncertain process.
