President Donald Trump on Tuesday outlined an ambitious $175 billion plan to develop what he&#8217;s dubbing a &#8220;Golden Dome&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/05/45532125/l3harris-stock-moves-higher-after-being-named-in-golden-dome-missile-defense-system">missile defense system</a>.
What To Know: Sen. Jim Banks (R-Ind.) said L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LHX#NYSE">LHX</a>) will manufacture satellites for what is expected to integrate land, sea, and space-based technologies. 
The Senator also said that "a lot" of American companies will be involved in the project.

Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) is a front-runner for Golden Dome contracts due to its missile defense and command-and-control systems expertise. Advanced radar systems and missile interceptors from RTX Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) are also likely critical to the Golden Dome's tracking and engagement capabilities. 
SpaceX, led by major Republican donor Elon Musk, in partnership with Palantir Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) and Anduril, are also leading contenders for the defense system&#8217;s satellite and space-based sensor segment. 
The consortium's proposal includes deploying hundreds of satellites for missile detection and tracking. A subscription-based service model for the operation of the Golden Dome is also under discussion.
&#8220;Once fully constructed, the Golden Dome will be capable of intercepting missiles even if they are launched from other sides of the world and even if they are launched from space,&#8221; Trump told reporters on Tuesday. He did not name specific companies in his initial announcement.

General Michael Guetlein, vice chief of space operations for the U.S. Space Force, is leading the project.
How Pricey Is It: The Golden Dome has initial funding of $25 billion included in a major budget bill currently before Congress and Trump estimated its total projected cost at $175 billion over three years. However, some experts and politicians see the total cost of the Golden Dome being much higher. 
Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-Mont.) expects costs to be &#8220;in the trillions if and when&#8221; the dome is completed, <a href="https://spacenews.com/senate-forms-golden-dome-caucus-to-champion-missile-defense-shield/">per</a> Space News. Sheehy leads the U.S. Senate's &#8220;Golden Dome caucus&#8221; 
Analysts estimate that about 70% of the initial $25 billion in funding will flow to research and development and early-stage production, <a href="https://www.ainvest.com/news/golden-dome-defense-high-risk-high-reward-opportunity-defense-contractors-2505/">according to </a>AInvest.&nbsp;
Israel's Iron Dome, in comparison, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2023/10/16/israel-hamas-iron-dome-defense-cost-explained">reportedly</a> costs several billion dollars to construct. The U.S. has allocated at least $3 billion for the Iron Dome, per <a href="https://sgp.fas.org/crs/mideast/RL33222.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Congressional Research Service</a>.
A single Iron Dome missile costs <a href="https://www.euronews.com/next/2024/10/02/the-iron-dome-how-does-israels-missile-defence-system-work" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">roughly $50,000 to manufacture</a>.
Trump's announcement has already triggered positive moves in defense sector stocks, and further contract news could drive additional rallies.&nbsp;

A recent caller on &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwLNqhEA1yU">The Dave Ramsey Show</a>&#8221; shared an emotional story about how her husband fell for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40799485/cryptocurrency-scams-cost-americans-5-6b-in-2023-fbi-report-shows">crypto scam</a> and lost nearly their entire retirement savings.
&#8220;This weekend, I received some devastating news,&#8221; the woman said, her voice breaking. &#8220;My husband was scammed out of almost his entire 401(k). Now it&#8217;s tax time, and we&#8217;re going to have to pay taxes on it.

She explained that her husband had initially told her he invested $30,000 in crypto after feeling financially pressured to secure their future. He apparently showed her that they had made about $300,000 or $400,000 in an investing app. When she asked him where he got the money from, he said the 401(k).&nbsp;
But as tax season approached and key tax forms didn&#8217;t arrive, she grew suspicious. When she pressed for answers, he finally came clean: he had actually invested $270,000 and lost nearly all of it.
&#8220;It was a company in Hong Kong,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I looked up the address, and it was in the slums of Hong Kong.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ramsey Calls Out the Deception</h2>
Dave Ramsey did not hold back. &#8220;Does he now own that this is stupid, or is he still defending it?&#8221; he asked. When the caller confirmed her husband admitted fault, Ramsey replied, &#8220;That&#8217;s important because otherwise he&#8217;s going to do it again.&#8221;
Ramsey continued: &#8220;He not only did something stupid, he lied about it at length. Deceived, created a web, a full scenario of lies—that concerns me actually more than his stupidity.&#8221;
The caller remained hopeful, saying she feels good most days and is thankful for the time she has despite her health issues. Ramsey encouraged them to rebuild, suggesting they max out their 401(k) and Roth IRA contributions and work another 10 to 12 years to recover.
He also pointed out a key principle: &#8220;If you have to hide the investment or the financial move from your spouse—warning, warning, warning—you&#8217;re screwing up.&#8221;

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
