Rolls-Royce shares performing best out of the 2023 gate

Rolls-Royce Jumps 6.1% as Jefferies upgrades to buy

Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC (LON: RR) Received an early boost to the year as Jefferies put the company on its buy list with an increased price target of 125p, up from 90p.

The company has a number of different strands to it. There are hopes that the aero engine business may start to lift off again as we see a return to the air from what has been a very difficult two or three years for these travel companies and airlines, who not just use the Rolls-Royce engines, but also have big servicing contracts.

Rolls-Royce is also taking part of this upside because of the increased defence spending. The company has also been benefiting from that. Adding to this as well, the fact that Rolls-Royce has identified four priority sites, the deployment of its small modular nuclear reactors in the UK, something else that many people believe that Rolls-Royce will be able to benefit from.

So, starting the year strongly, where it goes from here remains to be seen. But at the moment, at least, it’s one of the leading gainers on the FTSE 100 after two hours of trade on the market so far in 2023.
