A year of buying NOC
Over the last 132 days NOC closed between $476.19 (October 7, 2026) and $589.60 (August 18, 2026). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $102 today; at the high, $82. The current price $483.96 is above 9 of those 132 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 7% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves NOC by 2.3%: a $1,000 position swings about $23 a day.
