Monday, April 15, 3:23 PM 2012 marked the first annual contraction in global defense spending in a decade and a half according to Bloomberg, quoting the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. Between austerity in Europe and the scaling back of defense expenditures associated with Afghanistan in the U.S., global military expenditures were down 0.5% last year in real terms. China meanwhile, increased its outlays by nearly 8% and may overtake the U.S. in less than 10 years. Comment!

Friday, March 15, 7:34 PM If history is a guide, the markets may be due for a pullback, according to S&P Capital's Sam Stovall. Since World War II, Stovall says the median advance once the S&P hits its previous high after recovering from a bear market has been just 3%. But despite the ominous warning, there still may be some places to ride it all out. JPMorgan's chief U.S. equities strategist Tom Lee recently came up with 15 stocks that outperformed the S&P 500 in eight of the last 11 pullbacks since 2009: CAG, IBM, DIS, GPC, MMM, FISV, PAYX, PPG, SYY, SIAL, UNP, UTX, PX, L, and XRAY. 42 Comments [U.S. Economy]

Thursday, March 14, 9:06 AM After a period of fairly miserable headlines, the F-35 gets a boost from Singapore, which is in the "final stages of evaluating" the Lockheed Martin (LMT) fighter jet and is expected to soon submit a "letter of request." The process should bring orders for several dozen jets, something that would also be a boon for Pratt & Whitney (UTX), the provider of the F-35's engines. 1 Comment

Tuesday, March 5, 5:37 AM General Dynamics (GD) shipbuilding unit NASSCO has warned over 1,000 workers of indefinite layoffs that may take effect in late April due to the uncertainty caused by the automatic spending cuts that kicked in on Friday.

Monday, March 4, 3:02 AM Pratt & Whitney has disclosed that it discovered a scheme in 2011 at fellow United Technologies (UTX) subsidiary Carmel Forge to allegedly falsify metallurgical test results in certain aircraft engine forgings to make it appear as if they met Pratt's extra-high internal standards even if they didn't. While the scheme affected tens of thousands of parts, United Tech and FAA investigations found that the components aren't a safety risk. 2 Comments
Wednesday, February 27, 9:34 AM Christopher Bogdan, the Pentagon's program chief for the F-35, slams Lockheed Martin (LMT) and Pratt & Whitney (UTX) for trying to "squeeze every nickel" out of the government. Bogdan wants the companies to "take on some of the risk...invest in cost reductions...do the things that will build a better relationship," he says. "I'm not getting all that love yet." You might remember that in the summer, Bogdan described the government's relationship with LMT as the worst he'd ever seen. 7 Comments
