The violence in palestine/Israël
Not apparent from the photo. Maybe that's what the voice in your head said.
They are celebrating stocks going up recently, the stocks have gone up because lockheed Martin sells advanced weapons such as missiles which are being used in the conflict in Gaza by Israel, donated by the US.
Really not that complicated
Lockheed sells a lot of different products. To say that one group of products is moving their needle is probably mistaken.
They are the biggest defense contractor in the world, you are clearly trying to make a square fit a round hole in order to fit your point, i just don't know what that point is.
They are only the biggest because they sell military airplanes. These planes can only be sold to the US government or whoever they designate. Now the F35 is very popular and it hit at a time when multiple countries were retiring their fighters. So, yeah I guess they are having a good year. Does that make them a ghoul?
