The case
● Bull — what supports it
Oversold (RSI 38) after a brutal -38% 3m; pure-play on drones/unmanned systems and hypersonics that fits the autonomous-drone and Golden Dome themes in a record FY2027 budget.
● Bear — what refutes it
Confirmed STRONG_TREND_DOWN, below both MAs, and the highest ATR in the group (7.7%) — extremely volatile falling knife with stretched valuation and no momentum bottom.
What would change our mind
Drake commits in advance to what would prove this call wrong — falsifiers, not hindsight.
- A volume reversal reclaiming the 50DMA.
The verdict
