General Dynamics raises dividend 6% as defense spending bolsters geopolitical momentum.

General Dynamics increased its dividend by 6% amid rising global defense spending and geopolitical tensions, reflecting confidence in Marine Systems segment strength. Pre-market stock fell 0.45% to $355.94 and after-hours decreased 0.11% to $355.90. The company is benefiting from defense spending tailwinds, though analysts debate valuation and growth prospects.
