Dassault Aviation (OTC:DUAVF) Stock, Chaîne d'Options

Dassault Aviation, a subsidiary of French multinational company Dassault Group, designs, builds, and maintains military fighter jets and is one of the largest manufacturers of business jets. It has a 26% stake in Thales, which contributes significantly to Dassault's net profit. In 2024, Dassault Aviation generated EUR 6.2 billion in revenue with 14,600 employees. About 64% of revenue comes from defense aircraft equipment sales and services, while Falcon business jets generate the remaining 36% of sales.

The shares of Avic Chengdu Aircraft, known for manufacturing fighter jets like the JF-17 Thunder and the J-10C Vigorous Dragon, saw a 41.08% surge over the past five days since the commencement of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45335338/trump-makes-india-pakistan-ceasefire-declaration-in-casual-manner-thank-you-for-your-attention-to-this-matter"> India-Pakistan conflict.</a>
What Happened: This rise was amid growing tensions between India and Pakistan following New Delhi&#8217;s recent military actions to avenge the alleged killings of tourists by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45369837/piers-morgan-tears-into-pakistani-expert-who-says-isi-didnt-know-osama-bin-laden-was-living-near-military-base-all-they-had-to-do-was-get-a-pair-of-binoculars">Pakistani terrorists</a> in Pahalgam, Kashmir.
On Friday, U.S. officials confirmed that a Chinese-made J-10 fighter jet fired air-to-air missiles at Indian aircraft, reportedly resulting in the downing of a French-built Rafale jet. The Pakistani Defense Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif, also said that the Chinese-made J-10 was used to shoot down three of India's newly acquired Rafale jets. 
Notably, the Indian military has not issued a clear response to the claim. "We are in a combat scenario and losses are a part of it. All our pilots are back home," stated Air Marshal A.K. Bharti on Sunday.
However, after a steep rise, the Avic Chengdu stock tumbled over 7% on Tuesday, possibly in response to a statement from Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Modi on Monday announced the successful completion of Operation Sindoor. This statement triggered a massive selloff in Chinese defense stocks.

Why It Matters: If confirmed, this would be the first combat success of the J-10 family since the original J-10 was unveiled 27 years ago. Pakistan, a long-standing ally of China, is the only foreign country operating the advanced J-10C, with a fleet of 20. This incident also marked the first reported loss of a Rafale fighter jet in combat, according <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/china/military/article/3309781/j-10cs-deepseek-moment-beijing-muted-china-cheers-fighter-jet-combat-reports">to</a> the South China Morning Post.
While Chinese citizens praised the J-10C fighter jet&#8217;s role in the India-Pakistan conflict as a milestone for China&#8217;s defense industry, Beijing maintained a cautious stance. Analysts attributed this to geopolitical sensitivities and military prudence. The only official response from Beijing urged both countries to show restraint and avoid escalating tensions, reported the publication. 
Meanwhile, this incident had sent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45342121/chinese-made-pakistani-jet-downs-two-indian-aircraft">shockwaves across defense circles </a>and rattled investors, causing shares of French manufacturer Dassault Aviation (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUAVF#OTC">DUAVF</a>) to plunge.

This Chinese Defense Stock Soared Over 41% In 5 Days: What's Going On?

On Sunday, India issued its first official response after reports emerged that a Rafale fighter jet, part of the country's prized air fleet, was allegedly shot down by a Chinese-made Pakistani aircraft.
What Happened: The unverified incident, which sent shockwaves across defense circles, rattled the investors, with shares of French manufacturer Dassault Aviation plunging amid growing scrutiny over the jet&#8217;s battlefield performance
On Friday, U.S. officials confirmed that a Chinese-made J-10 aircraft fired air-to-air missiles at Indian fighter jets. One of the Indian jets shot down was a French-built Rafale fighter, while Pakistan&#8217;s U.S.-made F-16s, produced by Lockheed Martin (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>), were not involved in the incident, reported Reuters.
Pakistan&#8217;s Defense Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif, claimed that the J-10 was used to shoot down three Rafale planes, newly acquired by India. Pakistan asserts to have downed five Indian planes in total.
On Sunday, Air Marshal A.K. Bharti responded in a press conference regarding the same. &#8220;We are in a combat scenario and losses are a part of it. All our pilots are back home,&#8221; stated Bharti. 
Notably, the Indian military gave no clear answer on this.
The incident led to a decline in shares for Rafale manufacturer Dassault Aviation (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUAVF#OTC">DUAVF</a>). The European listed stock has fallen nearly 10% in the last 5 days. On Friday, the U.S.-listed ADRs closed lower by more than 3.6%. Over the past five days, the ADR lost 4.42% of its value.

Tim Walz—&#8217;We Don&#8217;t Need To Run Government Like A Business&#8217;</a>
Why It Matters: The incident has piqued the interest of air warfare communities worldwide, eager to understand the tactics, techniques, and procedures used in the confrontation. Washington is closely analyzing the jet's performance against a Western adversary, seeing it as a potential indicator of how Beijing might fare in a conflict over Taiwan or across the broader Indo-Pacific.
The incident comes amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45241770/india-fires-missiles-into-pakistani-territory-trump-hopes-fighting-between-nuclear-rivals-ends-very-quickly">escalating tensions </a>between India and Pakistan. On May 7, India launched missile strikes into Pakistani-controlled territory <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45241770/india-fires-missiles-into-pakistani-territory-trump-hopes-fighting-between-nuclear-rivals-ends-very-quickly">as part of </a>Operation Sindoor to avenge the alleged killings of tourists reportedly by a Pakistani terror group in Pahalgam, Kashmir.
Following this, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45335338/trump-makes-india-pakistan-ceasefire-declaration-in-casual-manner-thank-you-for-your-attention-to-this-matter">U.S.-brokered ceasefire </a>was announced by President Donald Trump. However, the ceasefire was short-lived as explosions in Srinagar and Jammu <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45336288/india-pakistan-ceasefire-teeters-as-blasts-shatter-calm-in-kashmir">raised doubts </a>about the truce&#8217;s longevity.
The two nations are set to hold talks on Monday.

India Breaks Silence After Rafale Jet Reportedly Downed By Pakistan's Chinese-Made Fighter — Triggering Sell-Off In Dassault Aviation Stock: 'Losses Are A Part Of...'

The king of outrageous challenges, Jimmy Donaldson, also known as MrBeast, is back with a bold giveaway.
What Happened: In a conversation with PodSensei that was released on Sunday, MrBeast revealed that he purchased a private jet and challenged two fresh aviation school graduates to live inside it for 100 days.
If they succeed, they get to keep the jet.
The YouTube sensation described the jet as a &#8220;really nice&#8221; Dassault Aviation's (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUAVF#OTC">DUAVF</a>) Hawker 2000, offering the participants the freedom to fly it anywhere globally.

However, they must remain inside the aircraft for the entire duration to win. The challenge allows them to open the door for deliveries, such as pizza, but they cannot step outside.
The video of the conversation was posted by a user on X, to which MrBeast replied posing a question to his followers, &#8220;Would you guys live in a private jet for 100 days to keep it?&#8221;

MrBeast's Daring New Challenge: Live In A Jet For 100 Days And Then Keep It — Are You Game?

A Trump presidency<a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/europe-frets-about-recession-after?r=3nmatg"> has raised concern in Europe that a new round</a> of tariffs under his <a href="https://www.euronews.com/business/2024/11/04/how-much-could-trumps-tariffs-damage-europes-economy">administration will cause a economic recession</a> in Europe.
A trade war during Trump's four-year term would also increase the probability of the European Central Bank (ECB) cutting rates faster to spur growth. Analysts issued pessimistic outlooks for European economic growth after Trump won the election.
On election day, the US dollar rallied sharply, sending the euro to a four-month low and boosting Bitcoin by 10% to a record high. 
European stocks exposed to the US have already shown their vulnerability. A Barclays basket of 28 <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/europe-trump-win-outlook-trade-war-tariff-crypto-djt-election-2024-10">European stocks sensitive to US tariffs</a> has underperformed the broader STOXX600 index by 15% this year.

&#8220;Tariff concerns have been a drag on EU equities&#8217; relative performance year-to-date,&#8221; Barclays analysts led by Emmanuel Cau wrote in a note on October 23. A basket of European stocks at risk of Trump tariffs declined compared to those geared toward Democrat policies.&nbsp;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Presidency Could Impact Europe's GDP</h3>
The European Union (EU) will need to confront the reality of a much different relationship with its largest trading partner from January 20. Previous <a href="https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2024/10/24/would-donald-trumps-trade-tariffs-hurt-europe">tariffs on 6.4 billion in EU steel and aluminum</a>, alongside threats on automotive imports, have shown how US protectionism can reverberate through European economies.&nbsp;
Trump&#8217;s potential trade policies in 2025, including a proposed 10% to 20% <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/c0f1d1b9-8348-4b7d-8ab7-186fcf2ebbd1">tariff on European goods</a>, pose a substantial threat to European growth. Following Trump&#8217;s win, Goldman Sachs <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/783a573c-7ff3-461c-86f5-f194a89e3926">downgraded Europe's growth</a> for 2025 from 1.1% to 0.8%, citing limited European auto exports.
The German economic institute IW believes the <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/trump-presidency-could-deal-heavy-blow-germanys-flagging-economy-2024-10-24/">Eurozone&#8217;s GDP could decline by 1.5%</a> in 2027 and 2028. Goldman Sachs expects a 1% reduction if a 10% universal tariff is implemented instead.
Historically, Trump&#8217;s tariffs have hampered European growth due to steep declines in exports, a trend that could repeat. Major exports to the US accounted for ~90% of all European transatlantic exports in 2023 to €502.3 billion, European Commission (EC) data showed.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcvDK80Z1hUJyXyvBBoAMMZeFNr-xIVF1HOlXtj5f6tyZXetVpHGPs9afu43LAEz62sGA2rBTRYFExGxZIpot6NEMoR9FSz8MZpQOWeaegFSiq-af0hbjlqRKJQcifBBKtRYdpvm-brz9WvSj6543imX5QpjbXn9iE8MSyrl2c9XKSTRVJvkWo?key=heoBp3pffbhAPsc75vkVjtPK" alt="" style="width:624px" /></figure>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Presidency Could Cause Eurozone GDP Loos</h3>
The blow to the Eurozone from a potential 1.5% GDP reduction could translate to a €260 billion loss on an estimated GDP of €17.4 trillion for 2024. This is over half the entire transatlantic exports registered in 2023.
"The direct effects and the indirect effects and the <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-06/ecb-s-guindos-warns-of-huge-implications-of-trump-tariff-plans">deviations of commerce will be huge</a>, ECB Vice-President and French central bank head Francois Villeroy said on Wednesday.
Even the lower end of the proposed tariffs would compel ECB policymakers to cut rates more aggressively in 2025 if Trump implements his economic policies. Sven Jari Stehn of Goldman Sachs said in a note on Wednesday that he expects the ECB to cut an additional quarter-point in July.
&#8220;The American election must sound like <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/ecbs-villeroy-trump-election-means-more-risks-world-economy-2024-11-06/">a wakeup call for Europe</a>,&#8221; Villeroy said.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Germany At Greater Risk From Trump Presidency</h3>
Nations with large trade surpluses with the US face significant risks from policies that have strained transatlantic economic relationships in the past.&nbsp;
&#8220;Half of Germany&#8217;s growth always comes from exports and if you look at what&#8217;s going on in the world, you have to say that this pillar is under attack,&#8221; Germany's Economy Minister Robert Habeck said in October.&nbsp;
Germany exported over €157.7 billion of goods to the US in 2023. However, exports to the US contracted by 0.3% amid slowing demand and geopolitical escalation.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcunKZmSO2PXjTxoH5i3tumZTnE67LZaCy7n4plCOQCM-KaRa1NuHKfI4lwpeo7MwLbb0Aqn3RC9uLnOkJStOR3w4q2RuS55tghIU6m7QH1DLzfjJN5JdP3W4yQjJtarOqVnK06z5h7keeKLRkVAAEVOWJuwmL_gOl6HSiH65l3dYNqP9_E8Tc?key=heoBp3pffbhAPsc75vkVjtPK" alt="" style="width:624px" /></figure>

Dirk Schumacher, head of European macro research at Natixis Corporate &amp; Investment Banking Germany, says a 10% tariff increase could reduce Germany&#8217;s GDP by approximately 0.5%. A study by the Hans Boeckler Foundation macroeconomic institute suggests a <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/europe/trump-presidency-could-deal-heavy-blow-germanys-flagging-economy-2024-10-24/">1% GDP erosion by 2026 if Trump implemented a 20% tarif</a>f.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Germany Is Only G7 Nation Without Growth For Two Years</h3>
Germany remains the only G7 nation that has <a href="https://www.euronews.com/business/2023/07/30/germany-expected-to-be-only-major-economy-not-to-grow-this-year">failed to grow for two years</a> due to higher energy prices, borrowing costs, and a slow rebound in China. Europe&#8217;s largest economy would suffer if its largest trading partner reduced output and imposed tariffs on China.
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfbVgaykBooXaV2_V2tFat4uPtjSxEtqJGbs1aXsckrchdNTyahnrivFRGcxzAeLoaUgFZv01KIV-g8Yk9HsuFFKgTBaSOSnOMknWvtj2G33RbD160IYtL7hnpn4l8SEaHdqM7rlcRtquZTqdr_AIIQEqM4qaXq4XQsubxXGLI35Dt86aCL_ds?key=heoBp3pffbhAPsc75vkVjtPK" alt="" style="width:624px" /></figure>
German Exports to China, 2020-2024, Source: <a href="https://www.ceicdata.com/en/germany/trade-statistics-by-country/exports-china">CEIC</a>
&#8220;Germany isn&#8217;t going to be bailed out by a restoration of growth in China," Jacob Funk Kirkegaard, senior fellow at Bruegel and the Peterson Institute for International Economics, told Reuters.
An Ifo study found that German exports to China and the US could fall by 9.6% and 14.9% in a full-scale trade war scenario in which the US imposes a 60% tariff on Chinese goods. Pharmaceutical and car exports would be hit the hardest, down 35% and 32%, the Ifo said.
Trump's tariffs would substantially trim European exports to the US, possibly creating a cycle of retaliation.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Swift Retaliatory Action From Europe</h3>
Nigel Green, CEO of deVere Group, believes that Trump's presidency would initiate a new trade war with Europe but sounded the alarm of swift retaliation.&nbsp;
"The market is <a href="https://www.financialmirror.com/2024/10/29/trump-trade-war-with-europe-would-hurt-us-stocks/">underestimating the risk of swift European retaliation</a> and the pressure this could place on key American stocks," he said.
Retaliatory measures could hit US earnings in the S&amp;P 500 by 1.5% next year. However, European stocks exposed to US tariffs could plunge as much as 7%, according to Barclays.&nbsp;
&#8220;In the event of a full-blown trade war, we could see up to a high single-digit drag on EPS growth with Germany," Barclays' head of European equity strategy, Emmanuel Cau, said. However, Goldman Sachs believes that a 1% GDP loss, if transported, would erase EPS growth for 2025.
Certain European sectors could still gain from a Trump presidency.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Defense Will Benefit From Trump Presidency&nbsp;</h3>
In addition to the energy sector, defense companies could see increased demand from European nations under a Trump Presidency. He is likely to push them to increase their NATO defense spending.&nbsp;
Earlier in 2024, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/feb/14/nato-chief-rebukes-donald-trump-and-announces-record-defence-spending">he threatened to "not protect"</a> any alliance members that failed to ramp up their defense spending to the 2% GDP target.&nbsp;
Following the warning, NATO claimed that more than 18 members would <a href="https://www.euractiv.com/section/defence-and-security/news/nato-says-18-members-will-reach-2-spending-target-this-year/">surpass the 2% target </a>this year.

Trump Presidency Raises Concerns About European Recession

<ul>
<li>Dassault Aviation SA&nbsp;(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/duavf#OTC">DUAVF</a>) expressed frustration over a dispute with partner&nbsp;Airbus SE&nbsp;(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eadsy#OTC">EADSY</a>) about the next phase of work on the European Future Combat Air System (FCAS) fighter project and stated that it was important to establish clear leadership,&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/dassault-ceo-voices-frustration-with-airbus-over-fighter-talks-2022-03-04/" style="background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; color:#4a6ee0" target="_blank">reported Reuters</a>.</li>
<li>FCAS is designed to replace the Eurofighter and Dassault&#39;s Rafale with a combination of manned and unmanned aircraft from 2040.</li>
<li>&quot;I accept to be leader if I have the leverage to be leader,&quot; the report quoted Dassault&#39;s Chief Executive Eric Trappier, referring to Dassault&#39;s responsibility for the core fighter element of the design.</li>
<li>The report added that Dassault and Airbus have been at odds over responsibility for flight controls.</li>
<li>&quot;We have made enough efforts,&quot; Trappier said, adding talks had been &#39;difficult&#39; in the face of new demands since September.</li>
<li>Defence analysts speculate that differences over FCAS could sink the project and reshuffle industry alliances.</li>
<li>Dassault Aviation today reported its FY21 results, with adjusted operating income increasing to &euro;527 million from &euro;261 million in 2020 and adjusted net sales of &euro;7.23 billion versus &euro;5.49 billion the previous year.</li>
<li>The company expects to deliver 13 Rafale and 35 Falcon jets in 2022. It anticipates net sales to be down compared to 2021.</li>
