Modest EPS beat on durable ~15% Aerospace margins plus a small guide raise, but the stock ran ~+7% in the week into the print (367->393) to fresh highs and +17% YTD, so much of the good news is priced. Deliveries likely light vs. the Street's 42, and management's own framing (Q2/Q3 soft, Q4 back-half-loaded) means full-year estimates barely move even after a beat; low-beta GD's initial pop fades as the out-period math limits upward revisions and profit-taking sets in. |
