Shares of aerospace and defense companies are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

&nbsp;AAR CORP. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIR#NYSE">AIR</a>), a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, has formed a joint venture, KALS LLC, with KIRA Aviation Services under the federal government's Small Business Administration Mentor-Protégé Program. The joint venture was recently awarded an E-6B Mercury pilot training contract by the U.S. Navy. &nbsp;
Under a firm fixed-price indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, KALS will provide in-flight training and currency for Naval Aviators in support of the U.S. Navy's E-6B Mercury pilot training. KALS will perform the work in Oklahoma City through March 2027.
The joint venture, KALS, was established by AAR and KIRA to meet pressing Department of Defense needs for maintenance and supply chain services. KIRA currently provides award-winning base operations and facility support to the U.S. government and stands to benefit from expanding its array of capabilities. Through the Mentor-Protégé Program, AAR will share its aviation expertise and provide KIRA with training, developing a new set of skills for the small business and positioning it for future growth. The KALS joint venture combines AAR's vast experience and reach-back with the best-in-class service reputation of KIRA.
"We are excited to help solve an urgent need of the U.S. Navy through this joint venture. The combined capabilities of AAR and KIRA will ensure the Navy receives outstanding pilot training for the Department's critical national mission," said Lt. General (r) John Cooper, AAR's Senior Vice President of Global Government and Defense.
"KIRA is thrilled to swiftly bring this critical support to the Navy.&nbsp;By combining the breadth and depth of experience of our two companies, KALS helps the Navy enhance their mission and helps the federal government meet their small business goals," said Beth Hershner, Tlingit Haida Tribal Business Corporation's&nbsp;Vice President of Operations, Information Technology and Engineering Professional Services.

Keybanc Maintains Overweight on AAR, Lowers Price Target to $80

U.S. stock futures fell on Monday after three consecutive days of decline on Friday. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower in premarket trading.
Stocks decline as investors await the day of incoming reciprocal tariffs on April 2nd. This is termed &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; by U.S. President Donald Trump.
Goldman Sachs, in its recent note, predicted a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44554304/goldman-sachs-raises-us-recession-risk-to-35-expects-inflation-at-3-5-in-2025-amid-tariff-uncertainties-economist-mohamed-el-erian-highlights-stagflationary-twist">35% recession risk</a> and reciprocal tariffs that average 15% across all U.S. trading partners, although product and country exclusions could whittle the addition to the average U.S. tariff rate down to 9 percentage points.
The stock market ended the month of March and the first quarter on a rough note. As of Friday, the Nasdaq 100 index was 13.24% from its previous high. The S&amp;P 500 was 9.22% lower from its record level, and the Dow Jones was down 7.74% from its 52-week high.
With the 10-year Treasury yield at 4.63% and the 2-year at 3.88%, the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a> shows markets pricing in an 82.1% likelihood of the Federal Reserve maintaining current interest rates through its May meeting.

Cues From Last Session:
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 ended Friday in the red, with consumer discretionary, communication services, and information technology stocks posting the steepest losses. In contrast, utilities outperformed, closing the session higher despite broader market weakness.
Adding to market jitters, the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, the core Personal Consumption Expenditures price index, rose 2.8% year-over-year in February, exceeding expectations of 2.7%.
Investor anxiety was further fueled by the University of Michigan Survey of Consumers, which revealed a jump in 5-year forward inflation expectations to 4.1%, marking the highest level since February 1993.
In corporate earnings, AAR Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIR#NYSE">AIR</a>) shares plunged more than 16% after the company reported a third-quarter sales miss.

Insights From Analysts:
As the date for &#8220;reciprocal tariffs&#8221; or "Liberation Day," as termed by President Trump, gets closer, Louis Navellier of Navellier &amp; Associates says that there is a lot for investors to be excited about in April.
&#8220;Overall, despite continued tariff distractions, after &#8216;Liberation Day,&#8217; I am expecting economic optimism to rise steadily in the upcoming months. Continued strong corporate earnings and lower interest rates are a powerful one-two punch that is expected to drop kick and propel economic growth dramatically higher,&#8221; he said.
However, Goldman Sachs has increased its U.S. recession probability from 20% to 35% in its recent note.
Christian Mueller-Glissmann, the leading asset allocation researcher at Goldman Sachs, has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44554923/goldman-sachs-warns-us-stocks-are-at-risk-of-further-declines-but-policy-pivot-from-trump-or-fed-could-stoke-reco">warned that the risk of further market correction</a> is still looming in the U.S. &#8220;The equity drawdown probability hasn&#8217;t peaked yet,&#8221; he said.
The factors supporting Goldman Sachs Research's view that the market correction has further to go include:
<ul>
<li>Its model's forecast has signaled heightened risk since January and has yet to indicate a peak in the likelihood of continued declines.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>A weakening macroeconomic backdrop, combined with the equity drawdown, suggests that the market has not yet found a bottom.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>The risk appetite indicator, which measures investor sentiment, remains above the ‘-2' threshold that historically signals a potential market reversal absent policy or economic shifts, indicating that a strong buying opportunity has not yet emerged.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>The Magnificent Seven tech stocks, which play a key role in retail investor confidence, have experienced notable declines, and further weakness in these stocks could weigh on sentiment.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>European and Chinese equities, which are currently outperforming the U.S., have historically led initially but ultimately followed the U.S. during broader market corrections, suggesting that a deeper U.S. downturn could pull global markets lower.</li>
</ul>
Mueller-Glissmann notes a key limitation of his equity drawdown model: it doesn't factor in policy shifts. "If President Trump or the Federal Reserve makes a major policy pivot, markets could recover much faster," he said.

US Stocks Likely To Open Lower After 3-Day Fall: 'Equity Drawdown Probability Hasn't Peaked Yet,' Says Goldman Sachs Analyst

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed a decline in the overall market sentiment, while the index moved to the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Friday, with the Dow Jones index falling more than 700 points during the session as investors assessed recent tariff-related news.
Earlier on Friday, the Fed&#8217;s favorite inflation gauge – the core Personal Consumption Expenditure price index – rose 2.8% on an annual basis in February, surprising estimates of 2.7%.
Investor anxiety deepened following the latest University of Michigan Survey of Consumers, which showed 5-year forward inflation expectations jumping to 4.1%, a 0.2-point increase from prior estimates and the highest reading since February 1993.

Dow Tumbles Over 500 Points; Abacus Global Management Shares Spike Higher

AAR shares are trading lower after the company reported a Q3 sales miss.

U.S. stock futures fell on Friday after two consecutive days of decline on Wednesday and Thursday. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower in premarket trading.
Stocks slid as investors digested the new auto tariffs levied on foreign cars and auto parts.
President Donald Trump also warned that he would impose much higher tariffs on the EU and Canada if they retaliate against his planned tariffs.
In a Truth Social post, he threatened large-scale tariffs to counter any economic harm from the two allies. While he has recently hinted at targeting them in his upcoming "Liberation Day" tariffs, no direct actions have been taken yet.
Traders will watch out for the Federal Reserve&#8217;s preferred measure of inflation, the Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index, specifically the core PCE, which excludes food and energy prices due to their volatility.
With the 10-year Treasury yield at 4.32% and the 2-year at 3.99%, the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a> shows markets pricing in an 88.4% likelihood of the Federal Reserve maintaining current interest rates through its May meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
According to the analysts at BlackRock, the weight of non-U.S. equities in global equity indexes has been on the rise since the end of January. This is caused by the policy uncertainty, which has shaken the investor belief in the U.S. growth and equity strength, pulling the S&amp;P 500 down more than 3%, the note added.
&#8220;The selloff has been exacerbated by investors rapidly pulling out of popular trades – like the tech-heavy momentum equity style factor and cyclical trades that were betting on a boost from growth from potential U.S. deregulation and tax cuts.&#8221;
&#8220;We stay overweight U.S. stocks on a six- to 12-month tactical horizon. Yet prolonged uncertainty could hurt both U.S. and global risk assets,&#8221; the note adds.
Meanwhile, as the uncertainty around tariffs mounts, Michael Townsend, managing director of legislative and regulatory affairs with Schwab, said that &#8220;The White House has been sending mixed signals.&#8221;
&#8220;First, saying that they would be imposed on all countries, then more recently saying they will initially focus on 10 to 15 countries with which the U.S. has big trade deficits. The plan also was to announce tariffs on automobiles, pharmaceuticals, and semiconductors next week, but those reportedly will be delayed. The uncertainty is driving companies and investors crazy.&#8221;
