Thesis Alignment

Iran war rearmament alignment

Mapping confidence

The skill's conviction in this thesis-to-securities mapping — independent of the thesis's own confidence.

μ 0.9001
Beta(49.7, 5.5)

Membership and order unchanged; alignmentConfidence firms 0.87 to 0.90 because each name's tie to Iran war rearmament cycle is now a contract rather than an expectation. LMT's PAC-3 multi-year and RTX's Tomahawk and AMRAAM multi-years are the munitions replenishment the thesis predicted, so both firm three points; NOC's awards are platform programmes and it firms one.

Beta(49.7, 5.5)

Firmed 0.87 to 0.90 with the band tightened. About $23B of Tomahawk and $14B of AMRAAM converted to multi-year contracts, lifting backlog to $340B - the munitions lines that 4.0.5 flagged as most exposed to the funding delay are now contracted.

Beta(30.5, 5.8)

Firmed 0.83 to 0.84. Backlog rose to $109.6B on Sentinel, submarine and restricted awards and the stock rose 13.4%; platform demand is a looser fit to the Iran replenishment cycle than munitions.
