Rolls Royce Analysis

Rolls Royce is the 5th best performer on the FTSE 100 so far this year and is higher by more than 100%. Its track record over the last 5 years is stunning: it is higher by nearly 3,000%.

Without Rolls Royce there would be no air travel as we know it. To get a sense of the company’s scale, it builds 80% of all engines for the world’s jumbo jets. It is also moving into narrow jets, and is in talks to make engines for Boeing’s 737 Max model.

The surge in demand for Rolls Royce has seen its market capitalisation nearly double in a year. The company continues to report strong growth across all business segments, and this is expected to continue into 2026.

The stock does not look overbought from a technical perspective, and liquidity has remained stable for most of this year. The company reports earnings twice a year, the next update is expected in February 2026, and another strong earnings report will no doubt be expected. Rolls Royce is powering an uncertain world, where geopolitical tensions are high, and global economies are expected to rapidly change due to Artificial Intelligence. This is feeding strong corporate results, which is why investors keep coming back for more of the stock.

  • Missed Nvidia's Rally? There's More Than Just NVDA
    To say that NVDA has been rallying is an understatement. NVDA's more like Elon Musk, high on cocaine in a toga and tied to one of his rockets to Mars. Did you miss the rally? You're not alone - and don't think that profit takers won't be looking for other plays in the AI space.
