“In third place, we’ve got another familiar name, Howmet Aerospace, that’s a prosaic aircraft component supplier… It’s with a 70% gain in the first half. This one’s straightforward. Howmet’s caught fire because we’ve got a raging bull market in aerospace…

Right now, the demand for new planes is off the charts, but supplies are limited, and we might see even more orders as President Trump conducts his trade negotiations all over the globe because buying a few jets from Boeing is the ultimate olive branch when you’re in a trade war with the United States. Aerospace is just a great place to be. If you don’t have any already, please get yourself some exposure.”
