sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show:This stock is not one you want to hold on to in an Obama administration. Obama likes unmanned aircraft.	Love	November 11, 2008
barrons3	Likewise, Obama may be powerless to cut weapons spending. If he was to cut Lockheed Martin's F-35 jet, for example, the unintended consequences would be intolerable. Unit costs for the jet would soar, hurting about a dozen key allies who want to buy the jets and have contributed R&D funds for the program.	Love	November 08, 2008
barrons3	Health-care, financial and industrial stocks dominate Helm's portfolio.

barrons2	Hold - Price 103.88 on July 23 by Jefferies & Co. We are boosting our 2008 EPS estimate to $7.80, from $7.60 -- reflecting a collection of nonrecurring items, coupled with improved profitability for the space systems. Lockheed reported Q2 EPS of $2.15. ...LMT raised its full-year 2008 EPS guidance to [a range of] $7.45 to $7.60 from its prior outlook of $7.15 to $7.35. ...Our 115 target values LMT shares at roughly 13.5 times our 2009 EPS estimate of 8.50, about in line with the peer group and consistent with LMT's earnings-growth profile. ...[R]isk of a significant change in investor perception may rise as limits regarding the U.S. involvement in Iraq translate into constrained Department of Defense spending. Market cap: $42.5 billion.	Love	July 26, 2008

sarah z	Cramer recently broke down in the post below how to play defense stocks into the election. “We've had some interesting pullbacks of late that are really worth highlighting. The defense stocks in particular -- not just because I just got off the USS Harry S Truman, a nuclear carrier -- seem ripe for the buying. We have seen a tremendous hammering in this group as if, somehow, the anointing of Obama means the winning of Obama and then somehow the vivisection of the Defense Department's budget. It's simplistic thinking. I believe that the stocks, as they go down, are excellent buys on cash flow and on a chance that the single most pro-defense presidential candidate since Scoop Jackson ran in the 1970s could be elected. This is one of those compelling risk/reward situations where you could find yourself picking up some Raytheon (RTN), Northrop Grumman (NOC ) or General Dynamics (GD) (Lockheed Martin (LMT) refuses to come in so is now my least favorite) and you can win either way. I think Obama has to tack extremely right to win, and the easiest way to do that is simply to call for a strong defense and ram it home by visiting defense plants and talking about the need for non-Iraqi strong defense elements. The propensity is to want to sell GD off, that as it is the most linked to Iraq with the exception of Alliant. But why not split the difference? I have been buying Raytheon ,and I think Northrop Grumman is terrific and in some ways L-3 Communications (LLL) might be best because it is the Democrats' defense company, with all of the homeland security counterterrorism plays. The Obama hoopla will die down, and I believe be replaced with pro-defense talk. This might be the moment to be buying this group or swapping out of LMT and into the other hard-hit ones. Then hold them into the election and be prepared to win either way!"	Love	June 05, 2008
barrons2	I love HON, adds Guy Adami. I think it’s still cheap on a valuation basis. Also look at Lockheed Lockheed Martin (LMT).	Love	May 15, 2008
