Trump administration seeks record $1 . 5tn defence budget
What it means
A record US defence budget proposal has historically been associated with gains in major defence contractors as procurement pipelines expand. The fiscal implications of such elevated spending tend to pressure long-duration bonds over time as deficit concerns mount. Note that budget proposals still require Congressional approval, which adds uncertainty to the timing and final size of any spending increase.
