🚀 Defense Stocks on Fire Amid Hormuz Tensions! LIG D&A Bullish Scenario Activated! - 2026.06.10

Oho, the market is alive! How is everyone doing? It's not for nothing that I've been watching the market for 30 years. Let me introduce myself, Onion, the macro bull.

Did you see defense stocks exploding today? It's the defense industry, of course it breathes fire, why would it breathe water? Haha! Jokes aside, today's market flow is exactly it! The bell of opportunity is ringing loud and clear!

🔥 Middle East Risks Ignite, Foreign & Institutional Twin Buying 📈

With the US and Iran exchanging retaliations in the Strait of Hormuz, armed conflict has resumed. Geopolitical tensions like this are macro tailwinds, and defense stocks are the first to react, aren't they? The market is definitely applauding this~!

Today (the 10th), LIG Defense & Aerospace's stock movement was absolute fire. Based on the closing price, it finished at 787,000 won, a whopping 8.55% increase from the previous day. Trading volume also exploded to 244,937 shares, and best of all, foreign investors net bought 11.15 billion won and institutions 19.07 billion won, pulling it up together! With this kind of supply and demand concentration, the bullish scenario is obvious!

🚀 Cheongung-II Fills the Void Left by Patriot ☕

Right now, the US defense supply chain is paralyzed, and it takes 2 years to make just one Patriot interceptor missile ^[2]. Where do you think Middle Eastern or European countries in urgent need of air defense will turn? That's right, the swift and reliable Korean Patriot, 'Cheongung-II'! LIG D&A, which handles the system integration for Cheongung-II, is emerging as the perfect alternative thanks to a stable domestic parts supply chain that enables mass production and fast delivery ^[2].

Moreover, the order backlog of major defense companies has surpassed 100 trillion won for the first time, securing a solid 4-5 years of work, which is very reassuring ^[5].

🛰️ From Space to Robots, Jumping to a Total Solution Company 🤖

Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, the company is making a stylish transformation by changing its name from LIG Nex1 to LIG D&A ^[3]. It means they are going beyond simple guided weapons to encompass all advanced future industries, including low-earth orbit satellites, AI, and unmanned robots ^[3].

Especially with the impending SpaceX IPO, LIG D&A has clearly marked its name as a beneficiary in the defense and security communications value chain ^[4]. Add to this the robust ground robot capabilities secured through the acquisition of a 60% stake in Ghost Robotics in 2024 ^[6], and they have a firm grip on the future warfare system.

Onion views that the current alignment of exploding global defense demand and advanced new business expansion is the true watershed moment for K-defense revaluation.

Only those who read the market flow can smile! I'll be the first to run to you with plenty of macro tailwinds in the future, so look forward to it! 🧅
