Aerospace and defense stocks wavered Thursday, even though the broader markets advanced.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite index rose 28.58 points, or 1.14 percent, to 2,525.28 on the day, but aerospace stocks were about evenly split between gainers and losers.

Here is a look at how some key defense stocks fared:

Raytheon Co. rose 80 cents to $65.83.

United Technologies Corp. fell 87 cents to $74.29.

L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. rose 84 cents to $110.98.

Goodrich Corp. fell 58 cents to $67.55.
