Kratos Defense and Security Solutions Inc (KTOS) Cotización

Why do these $billions$ and $millions$ in grants, awards, contracts do nothing for the stock price of this company. What am I missing?

Guess I'll have to hold another 2-3 years for this to get back to last highs but hope it can double by then.

I don't know what to believe. They now want to cut defense spending. When Trump was running for Pres. defense spending was one of the things they were talking about ramping up.

Smart money usually knows. with that said, up 11.22% over 3 months. Up 34.19% 6 months.

Not bad.

Possible profit taking. I know I did. Still strong and long.

BTW. The globe is a lot more dangerous. Do you really think they will stop buying weapons. They may boycott CO Not KTOS.

Kratos received good forecast reports at the beginning of this month from analysts, but a report came out a few days ago highlighting insider selling in December and January. As of today, there has been a few institutions that have bought, and both insiders and institutions have sold already in February. With the earnings report coming out on the 26th, this is interesting to see. Volume has been up the last 3 days with a lot of selling pressure. Trump announcing this week that the defense sector could be next to receive cuts up to 50% may be a factor as well.

I don't understand. Who is selling this for the last several days and why? There has been no bad news yet it continues to tank. Over $7 in 10 days. This is bull crap for a $30 stock. IMO

Why the heck has this dropped over $5.00 in a matter of a few days? Where's the bottom?

-2.11 (-6.16%) WTF

That didn't take to long. Could it possibly see $50 this year?

LA fires maybe it gets a little shove up. We shall see but a solid company with contracts 

There it is, another decent little contract and share price falls

This continues to perform well.

Pathetic!!!
Kratos Awarded $116.7 Million Prime Contract from the U.S. Space Development Agency for Ground System to Support Advanced Fire Control Missions
and this thing drops almost $3

To bad the insiders don't believe in their company and purchase shares once in a while. All they ever do is sell!

Help me understand! Everything is up! Sales are up! Revenue is up! Profits are up! Yet the share price is going down!

Kratos got a nice little bump in the share price when the good financials just came out then a steady decline since. Why does this stock not go up?????????????????

For some reason these large contracts, grants, partnerships, etc do nothing for this companies share price. The insiders of the company are constantly selling shares and none of them are ever buying.

Earnings very soon. I would like to hear more contracts and strategic partnerships.
JMO

Another large contract and the share price goes down!
Kratos Receives $57.6 Million Contract for 70 BQM-177A Aerial Targets

Uuh OK

I hope these turds get richer while we investors get poorer as all they do is sell. Nearly 20 million in sales with only 232 thousand bought since 2021!

Been almost 6 months since this post. When does this Boom start?
I am not a numbers guy but this company has received millions and millions and millions and more millions in contracts, grants, etc in the last several years. I would have thought this stock would be $30-40 by now yet it can't even hold $20.

Right on time. Imagine that!

Insiders have sold a total of 545,360 Kratos Defense & Security Solutions shares in the last 24 months for a total of $8,921,341.36 sold.

Good day today here in KTOS land! Decisions Decisions Should I sell before the insiders start selling, lol

Good Luck to both of us.

I also am a long termer in this. I have held this for over 10 years. I would have thought with everything they have it would have been much much higher. I should have sold at $30 but thought it would keep climbing. I really thought this had a chance to be a $50 stock. I'm to the point if it gets back to $20 I will probably sell. The insiders are constantly selling their stock. They never buy so I guess they have no faith in their company.

No, it did not. I am a long term investor in this, I still have faith for much bigger things in the future.

That $20 didn't stick around long!

2024 has not been good for this stock! I would have thought with all the wars going on that it would be good for defense stocks. Guess Not

KTOS new 52 week high

The question is when does it reach it highs above $30?

Very soon yes indeed

Yep

over $20 soon?

KTOS 164 years ago John Stuart Mill summed it up:
"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things:
the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse.
A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other."
Sadly, we have a need for RTX and KTOS in this current world of ours.

$$$$$ KTOS $$$$$

BOOM coming soon, earnings and future outlook next week.

Ukraine has responded to Kremlin attacks on its grain-shipping infrastructure in kind. Traffic at Russia’s critical Novorossiysk port was halted for several hours on Friday after a Ukrainian drone strike on a naval vessel. Although the closure was short-lived, escalations in Russia’s war—which has killed tens of thousands of Ukrainians—added to uncertainty over Black Sea trade flows amid this year’s harvests. Russia pulled out of a deal last month that had established a safe corridor for grain shipments from three Ukrainian ports, as it started its concerted effort to attack Kyiv’s grain shipping capabilities.

Trucking giant Yellow Corp. is considering a sale of assets and real estate through a bankruptcy filing, which may come as soon as this weekend, according to people with knowledge of the situation. Assets of the beleaguered company have already piqued the interest of a potential financial bidder. The Chapter 11 process could later transition into a liquidation.

Narendra Modi’s government pulled the carpet out from under technology companies in yet another example of India’s sudden policy shifts. Apple, Samsung and HP are among the biggest names freezing new imports of laptops and tablets to the South Asian country after it abruptly banned inbound shipments without a license. The restriction adds to longstanding Indian measures designed to discourage bringing in foreign electronics.

For Apple, it’s another unexpected obstacle. Weak demand for its handsets and other gadgets has caused the company’s market value to fall below the historic $3 trillion level. The iPhone maker’s outlook for the fourth quarter has sparked worries about more coal in the company’s stocking come the holidays.

About 15 miles south of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, a massive structure emerges from the Atlantic Ocean. Nearby it will have the biggest turbines in the world, as tall as the Washington Monument with the Statue of Liberty stacked on top. It’s the first offshore power substation in the US and in October it is expected to start delivering electricity from Vineyard Wind, the nation’s first commercial-scale offshore wind farm. By 2024, the project is expected to generate enough electricity to power 400,000 homes.

Meet the Women Behind Cadillac’s $340,000 EV
When General Motors announced in March that it would name its new luxury car customization shop in Warren, Michigan, after Suzanne Vanderbilt, a pioneering designer who shaped the Cadillacs of the 1950s, the gesture felt appropriate. The facility was built to do work on the Celestiq, a totally new, elite car created with women at the helm. The $340,000 electric hatchback will be Cadillac’s new flagship vehicle, promising technologies including next-generation hands-free driver assistance, a 55-inch digital dashboard and smart glass in the roof that can be tinted at a touch.
