13. Drivers of the US Defense Budget
Conventional view:
But war is a matter of contingency, so in our view:
Outbreak of war?
Greater resource
allocation in national
defense
Defense budget cut in
a warless world
Yes
No
Discretionary analysis
results in more polarized
decision making!!
Rise in military &
geopolitical risks?
Gov. raise their
spending BEFORE
wars break out:
- Procurement
- R&D
- Training
Continuous measure
More threats from ISIS
and North Korea will be
signals for military
advancement!!

47. Key Investment Risks
Events Impact Likelihood Mitigation
1. Balance sheet unwind Medium
Market liquidity will be tightened
under the latest monetary policy
in Sep 2017 which inversely
affect price of all asset classes
Large
Fed representatives have already
announced their initiatives to
scale down balance sheet of
federal government
Low systematic risk exposure
A low beta in defense portfolio
suggests a counter-cyclical
feature which indicates a buy
signal for defense stocks
2. Impeachment of US president Medium
New president will only be
responsible for determining
budget after FY2018, which may
be opposite to Trump’s policies
Low
President impeachment requires
complicated procedures which
costs more than other forces (e.g.
Congress & media) to limit
Trump administration
Improvement in US economy
Public dissatisfaction to Trump
may be reduced by improving
economic figures in US such as
non-agricultural unemployment
rate and inflation rate
