Over the past year, defence stocks have experienced a significant rally, with an average year-on-year gain of 67% across a universe of 18 stocks. This surge is largely attributed to heightened geopolitical tensions and the influence of Operation Sindoor, which has reignited interest in the defence sector. Notably, all but two of these stocks have provided positive returns during this period.
