Northrop Grumman Q4 Preview: Rebound Quarter Inbound?

Investors continue to digest quarterly results, with many companies reporting daily. Yesterday, we received quarterly prints from Baker Hughes BKR and Logitech International LOGI, among others.

And coming up soon is Northrop Grumman NOC, expected to reveal its quarterly results on Thursday, January 26th, before the market open.

Northrop Grumman supplies a broad array of products and services to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), including electronic systems, information technology, aircraft, space technology, and systems integration services.

NOC shares have outperformed over the last year, up 15% compared to the S&P 500s 7% decline.
