JP Morgan favors BAE and Babcock for stable defense orders amid sector tech concerns

JP Morgan maintains 'overweight' ratings on BAE Systems and Babcock International, highlighting their long-duration order books and products that are hard to replace. The bank notes a sector split as investors prefer defense firms with stable revenue and strong competitive moats, while companies facing technology disruption risks like Rheinmetall and RENK see valuation pressure. Upcoming investor events for these companies are critical tests. JP Morgan also watches MTU Aero Engines and Leonardo positively, expecting updates on growth and cost-saving plans, while remaining optimistic on Rolls-Royce and Safran in aerospace aftermarket.
