Lockheed Martin Final Thoughts

Put option buying ramped up on Lockheed on April 7th in the wake of the Defense Secretary's outline for the Pentagon's new budget proposal. Yet most analysts believe Lockheed is best positioned amongst the defense contractors as the Pentagon retrenches.

Despite the Pentagon's new budget plans and any resulting bearish sentiment building up in Lockheed, their healthy dividend yield is attractive for investors looking to moderate unsystemic portfolio risk with a diversified industrial.

From a technical standpoint, LMT's retracement back above $70/share might serve to dissuade valuation investors from getting on board. Lockheed is still trading much closer to its 52 week low than 52 week high.
