Your thoughts? RE: Future of Defence UCITS ETF - Thoughts? - Bastille - May 22, 2025 Palantir sounds promising with the Golden Dome just announced by Trump. Not sure about Fortinet, but Palo Alto is definitey interesting for the next years, they've been innovating a lot and are known for that (Magic Quadrant Gartner), can't wait to see them integrating AI in their appliances 😶 If I had money I would put some on Palantir and Palo, but broke AF right now.
