RTX Corporation Stock Performance
RTX Corporation shares traded at $188.61, reflecting a single-day decline of 3.08% per SID market data. Over the trailing one-month period, the stock has fallen 8.14%, though it maintains a modest 3.85% gain over three months and a 6.81% return over the past twelve months. The stock is currently trading well below both its 50-day moving average of $207.89 and its 200-day moving average of $197.17, signaling sustained downward momentum according to Massive/Polygon technical data. The 14-day relative strength index stands at 27.9, placing RTX firmly in oversold territory below the conventional 30 threshold. Average daily trading volume registers at approximately 4.67 million shares. The company's beta of 0.435 indicates significantly lower volatility relative to the broader market, consistent with its positioning within the defense-heavy industrials sector. RTX's market capitalization currently stands at approximately $237.5 billion.
RTX Corporation Valuation Analysis
RTX Corporation currently trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 36.07, a premium relative to many industrials-sector peers, according to SID market data. The PEG ratio stands at 5.03, suggesting the stock's earnings growth rate does not proportionally support its elevated P/E multiple based on current estimates. The price-to-book ratio registers at 3.69, reflecting the market's valuation of RTX's net assets, which include substantial intangible holdings from prior merger activity per SEC filings. The company offers a dividend yield of approximately 1.50%, providing modest income to shareholders. Within the industrials sector, RTX's valuation metrics indicate the market is pricing in sustained long-term defense spending tailwinds rather than near-term earnings acceleration. The combination of an above-average P/E and a high PEG ratio places RTX at a notable valuation premium, particularly given the recent pullback that has brought shares approximately 9.3% below the 50-day moving average.
Smart Money Activity for RTX
RTX Corporation's composite smart money score stands at 46 out of 100, registering a neutral signal per SID market data. Institutional activity represents the strongest component at 25 out of 25, indicating maximum confidence from large fund managers holding or accumulating positions. In contrast, the insider trading score is notably weak at 3.5 out of 25, with SEC Form 4 filings revealing nine insider transactions over the past 90 days comprising just two purchases against seven sales. This insider selling pattern suggests corporate officers and directors have been net distributors of shares during the recent period. The dark pool activity score is low at 5.0 out of 25, indicating limited non-exchange block trading interest. Congressional trading activity scores 12 out of 25, reflecting moderate engagement from U.S. lawmakers per 13F institutional filings. The divergence between strong institutional conviction and weak insider sentiment creates a mixed directional signal, with institutional holders maintaining robust positions while insiders have reduced personal exposure to RTX equity.
RTX Corporation Earnings Outlook
RTX Corporation has demonstrated consistent earnings outperformance in its two most recently reported quarters, according to company earnings reports. In the April reporting period, RTX posted earnings per share of $1.78 against a consensus estimate of $1.52, delivering a positive surprise of $0.26 or approximately 17.1%. The July quarter continued the trend with EPS of $1.89 versus the $1.66 estimate, producing a $0.23 beat or roughly 13.9% above expectations. Looking ahead, analyst estimates project EPS of $1.66 for the upcoming reporting period and $1.76 for the following quarter per consensus data. The sequential earnings trajectory from $1.52 estimated to $1.78 actual and from $1.66 estimated to $1.89 actual reflects strengthening operational execution. These consecutive double-digit percentage beats indicate RTX management has consistently delivered results above Wall Street's modeling assumptions, though future estimates have yet to reflect the full magnitude of recent outperformance trends.
Wall Street Analyst Ratings for RTX
Wall Street coverage of RTX Corporation reflects a predominantly constructive outlook, according to SID consensus data. The most recent rating activity includes Bernstein's September 2026 reiteration of a Market Perform rating, maintaining a neutral stance on the stock. In contrast, TD Cowen reiterated a Buy rating in late July, while RBC Capital maintained its Outperform designation and Susquehanna reaffirmed a Positive rating following the July earnings report per Wall Street analyst reports. The clustering of positive reiterations around the earnings release date suggests the strong quarterly results reinforced existing bullish theses among coverage analysts. Notably, no downgrades have appeared in the recent rating cycle, with three of the five most recent actions carrying bullish or outperform-equivalent designations. Bernstein stands as the sole neutral voice among recent coverage updates. The consensus tilt toward positive ratings persists despite RTX's elevated valuation multiples, with analysts appearing to weigh the company's defense backlog strength and consistent earnings beats as supportive factors for the stock.
