NOC Stock Rises As Northrop Grumman Rounds Out Defense Earnings.Defense stocks were mixed early Thursday as Northrop Grumman (NOC) announced quarterly results. General Dynamics (GD) reported above-forecast third-quarter results Wednesday. RTX stock spiked on Tuesday after a Q3 earnings beat.
Rapidly evolving circumstances in Israel and Palestine sparked greater interest in defense companies going into the earnings season.
Northrop Grumman specializes in advanced missiles, missile components, defense systems and sensor technology. The company's various manned aircraft include the A-10 Thunderbolt, B-2 Stealth Bomber, B-21 Raider, F-35 and the F/A-18 Super Hornet.
Northrop's third-quarter earnings rose about 5% to $6.18 per share on 9% revenue growth to $9.78 billion.
We expect Northrop earnings to fall for the first time in three quarters, sliding 1.4% to $5.81 per share. Revenue views targeted a 6.8% rise to $9.58 billion.
The company reported that defense system sales rose 6% to $1.42 billion and mission systems revenue increased 7% to $2.63 billion. Northrop's space systems division reported an 11% revenue increase to $3.5 billion. Aeronautics revenue rose 9% to $2.77 billion.

Northrop is well positioned thanks to its "high priority" long-term growth programs including the B-21 and Sentential Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD), an intercontinental ballistic missile system, UBS wrote in an Oct. 10 research note. The programs provide greater visibility and should drive overperformance. UBS initiated coverage of NOC stock with a buy rating and $555 price target.
NOC stock gained 0.6% early Thursday, adding to Wednesday's 1% gain. Shares slid below their 10-day moving average early in the week. NOC stock is trading around mid-January levels and down 11.3% this year.
We can see the Trend line in sync with the Relative Strength Index indicating Bullish Trend on Northrop.
BIG SHORT on NOCBased on the previous uptrend movement that has been made in the previous14 years, it seems that the massive trend has been weakened and due to the breaking the trendline i think it's time to make a sell/short position. maybe befor the big drop we would see a short term of upward trend and this is making a better chance to make a short position.
stoploss of the mentioned position is NOC=483.4$ !
NOC WCA - Head and Shoulders PatternCompany: Northrop Grumman
Ticker: NOC
Exchange: NYSE
Sector: Defense
Introduction:
Hello, and thank you for reading this analysis. Today, we focus on Northrop Grumman (NOC) on the NYSE. The weekly chart shows a potentially significant head and shoulders pattern that deserves our attention.
Head and Shoulders Pattern:
The head and shoulders pattern is a classic chart formation that can indicate either a bullish continuation or bearish reversal, depending on its orientation and the preceding trend. In this case, the pattern has formed over 441 days, making it noteworthy.
Analysis:
The NOC chart shows a clear uptrend, as demonstrated by the green upward sloping line and the position of the price above the 200 EMA. Both of these factors contribute to a bullish sentiment.
However, the formation of the head and shoulders pattern introduces an element of uncertainty. The neckline of this pattern, which currently acts as support, is at 431.61. A break below this level could signal a bearish reversal, offering a potential shorting opportunity.
On the other hand, a break above the right shoulder could indicate a continuation of the bullish trend. Given the existing uptrend and the position above the 200 EMA, the probabilities currently favor a continuation.
Conclusion:
In summary, Northrop Grumman's weekly chart presents a head and shoulders pattern within an uptrend, offering potential trading opportunities in both directions. Therefore, this is a chart to watch closely in the coming days.
As always, it's important to manage your risk appropriately and ensure that any trading decisions align with your overall investment strategy.

NOC swing trade ideaNYSE:NOC reports on Thursday. It's still 15% off of its ATH. It's been in an uptrend and putting in HL and HH's this year. They beat on revenue and EPS last quarter. There have been a lot of down revisions to estimates, while NOC has a strong history of beating estimates.
I'm setting up for a short term trade that assumes a beat. Entry at $472. Targeting overhead resistance at the 200SMA and the top of the gap from the Jan 12 drop to take profit. Setting a stop at $462, which is 1 20 period ATR below the 0.382 of the current extension.

Technical Indicators are nowhere near overbought, while price action contracted.
Once it expands, there could be a massive pop upwards, since fundamentally there are just too many good things to ignore.

Is Northrop Grumman Set To Cool DownI was disappointed with my last call on NOC and hesitant to make this one. However, the RSI signaled a drop first and the other algorithms followed suit today. NOC is also at the top of the trading channel it has been in. All of these factors make me much more confident NOC is set to decline somewhat over the next month. The overall market has been hot. I am getting signals from multiple big name companies that are overbought and due for at least a brief cool down. In the case of NOC, 4 of my algorithms signaled a SELL on April 8, 2021. Equities nearly always obey the signal and move down, but sometimes it may continue to move up first.
I have placed two red boxes and two green boxes on the chart. The larger red box depicts all of the historical movement, from a percentage standpoint, that this stock has moved on the 2 Hour chart after a SELL signal occurred. Therefore, this box represents 100% of previous movement upward before the stock finally moved downward. The smaller red box represents 50% of all historical movement upward, before the stock moved downward. The smaller box is more of a precise target for the potential top in this instance.
The green boxes represent the same thing. In this instance, the smaller green box would be my projected target for the final bottom.
The black dotted arrow represents median historical movement. Medians are a good metric, but they are just one of many I use when forecasting future movement.
As always, the stock could decline the very next bar after the signal without looking back (therefore the red boxes would not come into play) or the stock may never decline (and the green boxes may never come into play).

NOC WEEKLY CHARTLooking at the price action in NOC, we can see how the price is starting to approach with range candles (which indicates strong buying volume) a downtrend line where after several rising lows and falling highs we expect it to break. We will watch the price on the daily chart for it to break through the declining highs and look for support.
----------------------------------------------
Viendo la acción del precio en NOC, vemos como el precio empieza a acercarse con velas de rango (Lo cual nos indica fuerte volumen comprador) a una directriz bajista en la que después de varios mínimos crecientes y máximos decrecientes esperaremos que rompa. Observaremos el precio en el gráfico diario a que rompa la directriz de máximos decrecientes y busque apoyo en esta misma.
Is something about to happen in the Defense Industry?The algorithms, specifically, the Precise Signal is at it again. The signal is a SELL for Northrup Grumman. Historically, the Precise Signal indicating a SELL sees the stock move down an average of 10%. In fact the minimal drop for this signal with NOC is 7%. Considering Friday saw the stock drop 3% off its high, another 7% (or more) would be huge.
My MTFs also signaled SELLs, but since the Precise is built off of them this a not a surprise. For you technical junkies, the full analysis with each target is at my site for free as always
BAH - rocketWhen I think of Booz Allen Hamilton, I think of rockets. You think of Booze. That's the difference between you and I... Lay off the Booze and get some calls in BOOZ! This rocket is about to take off!
The 200MA battle. On the daily here we see consistency. Can it do it all over again? Wait for that cross to happen. Be patient. This is the daily chart so once it happens your probability of success is high for the coming weeks. Cheers and good luck on this one!
