$DRONESHIELD LTD(DRO.AU)$  lot of favourable macro factors, namely geo-political tensions worldwide and the increase of electronic warfare. A $1000 drone taking out a $10m tank is a problem. 


Key points to watch is sales fulfillment in the near term. Downside overblown with potential end of Ukraine war as sales occurring with US, Asia, LATAM and Europe. 2024 dissapointed growth expectations but 2025 already showing very positive signs with multiple contract wins in the last 3 months.

Company has increased operations scale as to be expected as a growth company. Sales conversations are tricky given governments are the buyers. High risk but high reward. 

Currently 10% shorts as reported by ASIC. May seen dramatic up days as shorts cover or continued downwards pressure if no sales news occurs. 


Top Picks for Defense Industry Stocks in 2025
Bank of America analysts recently said that Northrop Grumman (NOC.US), Booz Allen Consulting (BAH.US), Rocket Lab (RKLB.US), Raytheon Technologies (RTX.US) and GE Aerospace (GE.US) is the top pick for defense industry stocks in 2025. Although Republicans may control the White House, Senate and House of Representatives and federal budget constraints will remain an issue, defense spending is still expected to increase.

    Nice sharing. How do you view the surge today? Related to Trump’s Ukraine words or not?

      Too early to interpret the price action. Note we’ve had 2 post market cross trades of 4.5m and 4m this week - somethings happening - no clue what. I try not to read too much into the price action of any given day though as it should have limited bearing on my position.

      As of 18 Feb 10.76% short position when the closing price was $0.60. Last 4 trading days up 40%. While no direct news about the company there was significant news: deteriorating US/Ukraine relations, EU sentiment and Chinese activity. Shorts needing to cover has likely propelled this price action.
