The AI's read

Trump just imposed steep tariffs on imported drones and components aimed at boosting U.S. manufacturing. That pushed a sector rally and gave AVAV an immediate lift. The market reaction so far is modest, up about 1.7%, but AVAV is very overbought with RSI ~88.9, so momentum could exhaust quickly. The stock has recovered from lows but still shows a longer-term gap to its 200-day average, so upside exists with meaningful caveats. We lean bullish. Tariffs create a clear demand reallocation toward domestic producers, and the upside/downside math looks skewed enough to favor a positive stance despite crowded momentum.
