Truist lowered the firm’s price target on Curtiss-Wright (CW) to $338 from $356 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares as part of a broader research note previewing Q2 results for Aerospace and Defense names. Tariff headwinds should prove manageable across both commercial aero and defense, with SMID cap defense and space stocks “seemingly in a sweet spot”, trading at a 122% valuation premium to large cap peers, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm further cites a favorable global defense spending backdrop while also noting that commercial aero aftermarket should see sustained strength, adding that OEM-exposed suppliers should be in position to benefit from higher MAX/LEAP rates.
