About the Defense Heatmap
The defense stocks heatmap covers the world's listed aerospace and defense companies: US contractors such as RTX, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics and Northrop Grumman; European companies such as Airbus, Rheinmetall, BAE Systems, Thales, Leonardo and Saab; Asian and Israeli companies such as Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hanwha Aerospace, Hindustan Aeronautics and Elbit; and a group for defense technology, drones and space, from Palantir and Rocket Lab to Kratos and AeroVironment.
Defense stocks follow government budgets and geopolitics more than the business cycle. Grouping by region shows where spending expectations are changing: European rearmament, US budget decisions and Korean arms exports rarely move on the same day. Stocks listed outside the US are converted to US dollars.

Defense Heatmap FAQ
How do I read this heatmap?
Each tile is one stock. The tile's area is its market cap (or trading volume, if you switch "Size by"), and its color is the price change over the selected period: green for gains, red for losses, deeper shades for moves above 5% and 15%.
Which defense stocks are on the heatmap?
About 50 companies, including RTX, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Airbus, Safran, Rolls-Royce, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman, Rheinmetall, BAE Systems, Palantir, Thales, Leonardo, Saab, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hanwha Aerospace, Hindustan Aeronautics, Elbit Systems, Rocket Lab and Kratos.
Why are Boeing and Airbus on a defense map?
Both are among the world's largest defense contractors by revenue, although passenger aircraft are the larger part of their business. Their tiles therefore also react to airline orders and deliveries.
When does the defense stocks heatmap update?
Prices refresh every minute while a stock's home exchange is open. Outside its trading hours a tile shows the last traded price, so US, European and Asian stocks on the map move at different times of day.
