Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KTOS#NASDAQ">KTOS</a>) shares hit new 52-week highs on Wednesday on what appeared to be continued strength from an U.S. Air Force award announced Tuesday. 
The stock also got a boost from strength across broader markets following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926026/federal-reserve-delivers-bold-0-5-rate-cut-signals-further-easing-ahead">Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision on rates</a>.
What To Know: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/ktos">Kratos Defense shares</a> reached new 52-week highs on Wednesday, a day after the stock traded higher as the company announced it received a $79.8 million delivery order for 60 aircraft, mission kits, flight consumables and technical data for the BQM-167A Air Force Subscale Aerial Target under a five-year contract. 
If all options are exercised at the maximum production quantities, Kratos said the contract value could be as high as $374.04 million.
The award incorporates enhancements that include the largest capability upgrade to date for the BQM-167A. The increased capabilities are expected to improve weapon systems verification and training efforts the BQM-167A helps enable.
&#8220;As our nation&#8217;s peer threat countries continuously grow their capabilities in both technology and mass, our country must train our military and test our defenses against current, relevant, accurate, and representative threat systems,&#8221; said Steve Fendley, president of Kratos&#8217; unmanned systems division.
&#8220;Kratos is proud its BQM-167A has been a part of this solution for over 20 years and of the GAPP upgrades which increase the capability and extend the relevance of this affordable threat representative aircraft for years to come.&#8221;
Kratos shares are up nearly 9% over the past week, according to data from <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Small caps led the way, and the SPDR S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) hit new all-time highs Wednesday afternoon before sliding into the close.

Momentum investing is all about the idea of following a stock&#39;s recent trend, which can be in either direction. In the &#39;long&#39; context, investors will essentially be &quot;buying high, but hoping to sell even higher.&quot; And for investors following this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock&#39;s price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving in that direction. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.
Even though momentum is a popular stock characteristic, it can be tough to define. Debate surrounding which are the best and worst metrics to focus on is lengthy, but the Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us.
Below, we take a look at Kratos (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ktos#NASDAQ">KTOS</a>), a company that currently holds a Momentum Style Score of B. We also talk about price change and earnings estimate revisions, two of the main aspects of the Momentum Style Score.
It&#39;s also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Kratos currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B outperform the market over the following one-month period.
<h2>Set to Beat the Market?</h2>
Let&#39;s discuss some of the components of the Momentum Style Score for KTOS that show why this military contractor shows promise as a solid momentum pick.
A good momentum benchmark for a stock is to look at its short-term price activity, as this can reflect both current interest and if buyers or sellers currently have the upper hand. It is also useful to compare a security to its industry, as this can help investors pinpoint the top companies in a particular area.
For KTOS, shares are up 0.75% over the past week while the Zacks Aerospace - Defense Equipment industry is up 1.45% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 7.71% compares favorably with the industry&#39;s 7.69% performance as well.
Considering longer term price metrics, like performance over the last three months or year, can be advantageous as well. Over the past quarter, shares of Kratos have risen 8.35%, and are up 41.3% in the last year. On the other hand, the S&amp;P 500 has only moved 5.01% and 23.98%, respectively.
Investors should also pay attention to KTOS&#39;s average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. KTOS is currently averaging 954,998 shares for the last 20 days.
<h2>Earnings Outlook</h2>
The Zacks Momentum Style Score also takes into account trends in estimate revisions, in addition to price changes. Please note that estimate revision trends remain at the core of Zacks Rank as well. A nice path here can help show promise, and we have recently been seeing that with KTOS.
Over the past two months, 3 earnings estimates moved higher compared to 1 lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost KTOS&#39;s consensus estimate, increasing from $0.39 to $0.47 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 3 estimates have moved upwards while there have been 1 downward revision in the same time period.
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
Given these factors, it shouldn&#39;t be surprising that KTOS is a #2 (Buy) stock and boasts a Momentum Score of B. If you&#39;re looking for a fresh pick that&#39;s set to soar in the near-term, make sure to keep Kratos on your short list.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Oak Ridge National Laboratory, home to Frontier—the fastest supercomputer at over a quintillion calculations per second—is renowned for its advanced computing expertise.
Oak Ridge will enhance GE Aerospace&#8217;s ability to handle large simulations, extract data efficiently, leverage AI tools for better result interpretation, and improve physics visualization.
GE Aerospace plans to hire over 900 engineers in 2024 to drive innovation and support both current engine programs and future flight technologies.
The company developed computational fluid dynamics software for Frontier to model the aerodynamic and acoustic performance of its full-scale Open Fan engine.
Mohamed Ali, senior vice president of engineering for GE Aerospace said, &#8220;Supercomputing and access to Frontier is changing the way we design jet engines, allowing us to solve previously impossible problems. We&#8217;re now able to digitally fly components of an Open Fan at full-scale in a simulated environment before the hardware is built.&#8221;
&#8220;Our expanded research collaboration through a new cooperative agreement with Oak Ridge National Laboratory will accelerate our engine design and testing, building confidence that Open Fan architecture is the most promising engine technology to help the aviation industry meet its net zero ambitions.&#8221;
Today, Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KTOS#NASDAQ">KTOS</a>) and GE Aerospace have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop and produce cost-effective small engines for unmanned <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/07/g39877552/ge-aerospace-and-kratos-partner-on-small-affordable-engines" rel="noreferrer noopener">aerial systems and collaborative combat aircraft</a>.
The partnership builds on an existing joint development agreement and includes full-scale engine production.
Last week, GE Aerospace announced plans to invest over $1 billion over the next five years to expand its global Maintenance, Repair, and&nbsp;Overhaul (MRO) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39860866/ge-aerospace-commits-1b-to-enhance-global-repair-and-overhaul-facilities" rel="noreferrer noopener">and component repair facilities</a>.

GE Aerospace Invests In Supercomputing Talent: Plans To Hire 900 Engineers

GE Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) and Kratos Turbine Technologies, a division of Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions, Inc., signed a Memorandum of Understanding to partner on the development and production of small affordable engines that could potentially power unmanned aerial systems (UAS), collaborative combat aircraft, and similar applications. The partnership builds on an existing joint development agreement and includes full-scale engine production.
For the last year, GE Aerospace and Kratos have been working together on a small affordable engine. The engine initially was developed and ground tested by Kratos. Under the existing joint agreement, GE Aerospace and Kratos completed additional development efforts and are now conducting tests on the engine. The team plans to continue development on the current engine, which will undergo altitude testing next year at GE Aerospace&#39;s test cell in&nbsp;Evendale, Ohio.
Amy Gowder, President and CEO, Defense &amp; Systems at GE Aerospace said, &quot;Our defense customers have a growing interest in small affordable engines to meet their evolving mission requirements. Our initial collaboration has been very successful, and this agreement furthers our efforts in this new dynamic military segment.&quot;
Eric DeMarco, President &amp; CEO of Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions, Inc., said, &quot;Kratos has made significant investments in the development of our family of small, low-cost jet engines for jet powered drones, missiles, and powered munitions that lead in technology and capability. We consider our relationship with GE Aerospace as invaluable based on our expectation and forecast for the potential future production of thousands of turbofan engines for multiple customers.&quot;
Each company brings unique expertise to the partnership.&nbsp;Kratos has more than 20 years of experience in the development and production of small affordable jet engines for UAS, drones, and missiles. GE Aerospace has more than 100 years of experience in the development and scaling up of high-volume production for jet engine programs for a seamless transition from development to production.

Kratos Defense &amp; Security's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KTOS#NYSE">KTOS</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.95% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.74 million shares sold short, which is 1.87% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.66 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1721233811_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Kratos Defense &amp; Security has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Kratos Defense &amp; Security's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Kratos Defense &amp; Security's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.60%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

The Nasdaq 100 closed higher by around 175 points on Wednesday. Investors, meanwhile, focused on some notable insider trades.
When insiders sell shares, it could be a preplanned sale, or could indicate their concern in the company's prospects or that they view the stock as being overpriced. Insider sales should not be taken as the only indicator for making an investment or trading decision. At best, it can lend conviction to a selling decision.

크라토스 디펜스 앤 시큐리티 솔루션스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KTOS#NASDAQ">KTOS</a>)의 주가는 화요일에 발표된 미 공군으로 부터의 계약 수주로 지속적인 강세를 보인 가운데 수요일 52주 신고가를 경신했다.
또한, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926026/federal-reserve-delivers-bold-0-5-rate-cut-signals-further-easing-ahead">연방준비제도(연준)의 금리 인하 결정</a> 이후 넓은 시장에서의 강세로 주가가 상승했다.
알아두어야 할 사항: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/ktos">크라토스 디펜스의 주식</a>은 수요일 새로운 52주 최고가를 기록했으며, 이는 이 회사가 BQM-167A 공군 서브스케일 공중 표적기(BQM-167A Air Force Subscale Aerial Target)에 대한 5년 계약 하에 60대 항공기, 임무 키트, 비행 소모품 및 기술 데이터를 포함한 7,980만 달러의 납품 주문을 받았다고 발표한 다음 날 발생한 일이다.
모든 옵션이 최대 생산 수량으로 행사될 경우, 크라토스는 계약 가치가 최대 3억 7,404만 달러에 이를 수 있다고 밝혔다.
이번 계약 수주에는 BQM-167A에 대한 현재까지 최대 규모의 기능 업그레이드를 포함하는 향상된 기능이 포함되어 있다. 이 향상된 기능으로 인해 BQM-167A가 지원하는 무기 시스템 검증 및 훈련 노력이 향상될 것으로 예상된다.
크라토스의 무인 시스템 사업부 사장인 스티브 펜들리(Steve Fendley)는 &#8220;우리나라의 동등 위협 국가들이 기술과 대중 모두에서 지속적으로 역량을 키우고 있기 때문에 우리나라는 군대를 훈련하고 현재의 적절하고 정확하며 대표적인 위협 시스템에 대한 방어를 테스트해야 한다&#8221;고 말했다.
&#8220;크라토스는 BQM-167A가 20년 넘게 이 솔루션의 일부였으며, 향후 이 저렴한 위협 대표 항공기의 성능을 높이고 관련성을 확장하는 GAPP 업그레이드의 일부였던 것을 자랑스럽게 생각한다.&#8221;
<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>의 데이터에 따르면, 크라토스의 주가는 지난주 동안 거의 9% 상승했다. 연준이 금리를 0.5% 인하한 후 수요일 오후 몇몇 주식이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926310/s-p-500-gold-strike-all-time-highs-after-fed-cuts-rates-for-first-time-in-4-years" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">초반에 급등</a>했다. 소형주가 주도했고, SPDR S&amp;P 500(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>)은 수요일 오후 사상 최고치를 경신한 후 시장 마감 전에 하락했다.
수요일의 0.5% 금리 인하로 목표 연방 기금 금리는 23년 최고치인 5.25% &#8211; 5.5%에서 4.75% &#8211; 5% 사이의 새로운 범위로 낮아졌다. 이는 2020년 3월 이후 첫 금리 인하이기도 하다.
KTOS 주가 움직임: 크라토스 디펜스의 주식은 수요일에 최고 23.98달러까지 상승했다. 이 주식은 4.37% 상승한 23.41달러로 마감했다.
