Fresh off Qatar Airways' latest Boeing order – inked during President Donald Trump's diplomatic tour – Rewey sees commercial aviation demand as anything but turbulent. Both Airbus and Boeing have signaled stronger output through 2025 and beyond, despite persistent supply chain snarls. And where there’s consistent demand, there’s cash – especially for the companies that feed both giants.

Ducommon – Leveraged Play On Defense Demand

And the macro backdrop? It's tailwinds all the way.

Procurement Intact, Says Expert

Between a $6 billion bump in U.S. defense spending passed in March and a proposed $150 billion Senate increase in the pipeline, Rewey says the real action is in replenishment: from Ukraine to Israel to the gear left behind in Afghanistan, the U.S. needs to refill its defense cupboards fast.

NATO allies, too, are under pressure to meet spending commitments, fueling even more global procurement activity.

While Wall Street frets over possible Pentagon cuts to consulting services, Rewey isn't worried. "Procurement's still intact," he says – suggesting any slowdown fears are more bark than bite.

That's where Ducommun's balance sheet and "Vision 2027" come into play. With a plan to expand both revenue and margins through 2027, and a track record of 18% book value compounding over five years, Rewey sees Ducommun as a stealth growth story in a noisy sector.

Forget picking between Boeing and Airbus – Rewey's bet is simple: own the company that builds both.
