Defense shares lagged on Friday, falling about 0.8% as Elbit Systems dropped 5.5% and Optex Systems Holdings fell 1.5%. The piece is a market-performance update rather than a company-specific catalyst, but it signals short-term weakness in the defense/aerospace group. Overall impact is limited and likely more relevant for sector relative performance than for broad market direction.
