#MarketRebound 🧿DeepSeek named the best defense stocks and their investment percentages. It is the main contractor of the Pentagon and an ally of Israel, so if the conflict extends for months, its shares could quickly increase by 20%, as happened during the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Despite its fundamentals and the current outlook, the defense firm's stocks have recorded a loss of 5.4% so far this year. A war in the Middle East could disrupt supplies and spike crude prices, although recently the Brent barrel has fallen sharply.
Exxon Mobil (XOM) – 20% –
However, this company that pays high dividends has large reserves and refining capacity. Its shares have only increased by 1% in 2025. Cyberattacks could increase significantly during wars, as not everything is missiles and fighter planes.
This company is characterized by providing support to different governments. The firm's stocks have increased by 11.7% so far this year.
ETF SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) – 15% –
This exchange-traded fund replicates the price of physical gold, an asset that serves as a safe haven and even more so in this time of crisis and uncertainty.
Finally, DeepSeek recommended holding the remaining 25% in cash to take advantage of buying stocks during sharp declines, especially in oil and defense companies.
