JHVEPhoto/iStock Editorial via Getty Images L3Harris Technologies ( LHX ) on Wednesday said it received a U.S. Army order worth up to $106 million to provide its Vampire counter-unmanned aircraft systems as the military seeks to strengthen defenses against hostile drones. The award is part of the Army's broader layered approach to countering unmanned aerial systems, a threat that has become increasingly prominent in conflicts around the world. For investors, the contract underscores continued growth opportunities in the rapidly expanding counter-drone market, which has emerged as a priority spending area for the U.S. military and allied governments. Defense companies with proven systems already deployed in combat have been among the primary beneficiaries of rising demand for affordable drone detection and defeat capabilities. Vampire is a self-contained weapons system designed to provide reconnaissance and precision strike capabilities against drones and remotely piloted aircraft. L3Harris ( LHX ) said the system has accumulated more than 350,000 operational hours in European combat operations since 2023. The company developed the system during the war in Ukraine as a lower-cost option for countering drone threats. According to L3Harris, the platform was designed to be rapidly assembled, deployed and operated in the field. Tom Kirkland, president of Targeting & Sensor Systems within L3Harris' Communications & Spectrum Dominance segment, said the company worked closely with the Army to develop a system that could be delivered quickly while providing an affordable way to engage drone threats. Earlier this year, L3Harris ( LHX ) expanded production of Vampire by launching a high-volume manufacturing line in Huntsville, Alabama. The company said the investment was made in response to increasing demand from the United States and allied nations for counter-drone capabilities. The latest award adds to a growing portfolio of defense programs aimed at addressing the prolifer...

Oil prices have surged this year amid the conflict with Iran. Brent oil, the global benchmark price, has risen more than 50%, jumping from around $60 a barrel to more than $90. On a positive note, Brent is currently well below its peak of nearly $120 a barrel, reached in the early days of the war. Crude has cooled off amid hopes that the U.S. and Iran will reach a peace deal that includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Many people outside the oil industry believe oil prices will decline rapidly once the Strait reopens and remain low in the coming years. However, the CEO of global oil giant Shell (NYSE:SHEL) has a different view. He expects oil prices to continue rising long after the war ends. Here’s why and what that means for oil stocks .

Earnings Call Insights: MIND Technology (MIND) Q1 fiscal 2027 Management view "Our results for the first quarter were essentially in line with their expectations and once again reflected positive adjusted EBITDA," and "the near-term market can best be described as uncertain with less visibility than normal," driven by "economics, politics, and security" and customers being "reluctant to commit to equipment purchases, most notably larger system orders" (President, CEO & Director Robert Capps). "Our backlog of firm orders as of April 30, 2026 was approximately $7.6 million, compared to $13.9 million as of January 31, 2026," and management added that the pipeline is "solid, and several times greater than our firm backlog" with "a few" significant pursuits "$10 million or more each" (President, CEO & Director Capps). "Revenues for marine technology product sales totaled approximately $9.7 million" and "first quarter gross profit was approximately $4.1 million" for a "gross profit margin of 42%," while "net loss for the first quarter was approximately $411,000 after income tax expense of $476,000" (VP, CFO & Chief Accounting Officer Mark Cox). "As of April 30, 2026, we had significant working capital of approximately $37.8 million including $17.7 million of cash on hand" and "the company continues to maintain a clean, debt-free balance sheet" (VP, CFO & Chief Accounting Officer Cox). Outlook "Current visibility continues to indicate that our results for fiscal 2027 to be down when compared to fiscal 2026," and management added, "it will be difficult to replicate the system order volume that we've enjoyed over the past two years" (President, CEO & Director Capps). "However, we expect to be cash flow positive for the year, even with lower revenue," and management tied resilience to aftermarket demand: "our growing aftermarket business will provide us with a substantial stream of recurring revenue to buoy our results" (President, CEO & Director Capps).

Historically, a strong start to the year for the S&P 500 often leads to a strong second half of the year.

Key PointsSince 1990, when the S&P 500 is up at least 5% in the first five months of the year, it's been almost always positive in the second half.

President Donald Trump takes a question from a reporter before signing executive orders in the Oval Office at the White House on September 19, 2025 in Washington, DC. Andrew Harnik | Getty Images The Trump administration said Thursday it will appeal a federal judge's ruling striking down President Donald Trump's $100,000 fee on H-1B visa applications in its effort to hike the fee by tens of thousands of dollars. The Justice Department filed the notice three days after U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin in Boston vacated the fee, ruling that Trump exceeded his authority by imposing what amounted to a tax without approval from Congress. The decision was a blow to Trump's effort to restrict the H-1B program which was created in 1990 and is heavily used by U.S. tech giants to bring in highly skilled workers from overseas. The program allows U.S. employers to seek government permission to hire nonimmigrant workers in specialty occupations for up to six years. Sorokin found that "the substance and application of the $100,000 payment reveal that it is a tax ," and said Congress had not delegated that power to the executive branch. Trump imposed the fee by proclamation last September, arguing the H-1B program was being abused and was replacing American workers. Before his proclamation, H-1B visa fees had ranged from $2,000 to $5,000 per application. Several companies, including Walmart , said that they would pause their participation in the H-1B program as a result of Trump's proclamation. The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Choose CNBC as your preferred source on Google and never miss a moment from the most trusted name in business news.

Investors often weigh the stability of established military contractors against the explosive potential of new space ventures. Choosing between Leonardo DRS (NASDAQ:DRS) and Firefly Aerospace (NASDAQ:FLY) requires balancing these distinct profiles to determine which stock is a better buy. Leonardo DRS focuses on advanced sensing and naval power systems for the military, offering steady cash flow from long-term contracts. In contrast, Firefly Aerospace is a younger firm aiming to disrupt the space launch market with rapid deployment capabilities. Both companies play critical roles in national security and technical innovation, but they present very different risk profiles for shareholders. Leonardo DRS operates as a technology-focused mid-tier provider in the defense stocks landscape. It specializes in mission-critical systems like infrared sensors and electric propulsion for the U.S. Navy and Army, which together provide roughly 72.0% of its revenue. Such heavy reliance on a single customer like the U.S. government, which accounts for nearly 80.0% of total sales, adds a layer of risk to the business. Continue reading
