Contract flow this week: unusually weak · last month: rising · FAA directives: 1 directive in 30 days

In primes and large-caps, weeks like this (356 cases since 2012) show no measurable effect: +0.1% over the next 20 trading days versus the aerospace ETF, ahead 49% of the time, against +0.1% in ordinary weeks.

Our current read

frozen September 23 · scored after 20 trading days (about October 21)

52% chance General Dynamics (Gulfstream) beats the aerospace sector over the next 20 trading days; expected excess move +0.3%. In words: about as likely as not to beat the sector.

Based on 3,449 comparable weeks since 2012 (same company size, same contract-flow level: normal), pulled toward 50% when the evidence is thin. This number was written down on September 23 and cannot be changed; it is scored against the actual price when the horizon arrives.

Our record on GD: no scored calls yet; the first score lands about four weeks after the first read.

A probability, not a recommendation. Every read we have ever made, and how it turned out, is on the research page.

How to read this, in plain terms

The idea. Every week the government signs contracts for aircraft parts, and we know which company won them. When a company suddenly wins far more than its usual week, a natural question is whether its stock tends to move in the weeks after. We measured that for every company on this site, every week since 2012, and this box reports what we found for weeks that look like the current one.

Outlook is the answer in three words. ▲ Leaning higher means that in past weeks like this one, stocks of this size usually went on to beat the aerospace sector over the following month, and did so often enough and by enough that it is unlikely to be chance. ▼ Leaning lower is the reverse. — No lean means the record shows no consistent move either way, which is the honest answer most weeks and for most of the largest companies.

Flow Score is the current week in words: whether this company's contract flow is unusually strong, normal or weak compared with its own past year; whether it is rising or falling over the last month; and whether the FAA has recently issued directives against its products.

What it is not. A tendency in past data, not a forecast, and not a recommendation. Sample sizes are shown so you can weigh it yourself; a lean built on 400 cases means more than one built on 40. Stocks move for many reasons that have nothing to do with parts contracts. Use this as one input, alongside everything else you know.

The weeks behind this outlook (356 comparable weeks; the 40 most recent shown)

Every week since 2012 in which a company of this size had contract flow in the same state as General Dynamics (Gulfstream) has now. “Next month” is how the stock did against the aerospace sector over the following 20 trading days.

General Dynamics (Gulfstream) itself, in this state before: 4 weeks.

One square per past week, most recent first; green beat the sector, red trailed. Hover for the week and the number. Too few squares to lean on is a fair reading; the size-class record above is the larger sample.

Did big contract weeks lead anywhere? The last two years

Each week's contract flow (line) and what the stock then did over the following month compared with the aerospace sector (bars).

Blue line: how much government contract money the company won that week, compared with its own usual week. Dots are the weeks that counted as unusually strong.
Green bar: in the month after that week, the stock did better than the aerospace sector.
Red bar: it did worse. Grey: that month is not over yet.

What to look for: if the dots are usually followed by green bars, big contract weeks have tended to lead somewhere for this company; if the bars under the dots are as often red as green, they have not.
