An investor remains broadly bearish on the stock market due to high valuations, record margin debt, and rising recession risks. However, they see selective buying opportunities in defense stocks like Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman, which appear oversold and serve as a hedge against geopolitical risks. The investor also favors Pfizer for its attractive 7% dividend yield and potential in AI-driven drug discovery, and KBR for its undervalued space division spinoff. They expect a correction in chip stocks due to AI capital expenditure fatigue and prefer to keep high cash levels for flexibility amid market uncertainty.
