there is one name that renames firmly in the green and that is lockheed martin. why? ng the company a contract for six spacecraft with the ability to order up to 12 total. it's a spacecraft, hardware belonging to nasa but built by lockheed. nasa plans to use orion for the artemis program that's looking to put americans back on the lunar surface and establish a permanent outpost. earliest iteration of orion dates back to the w. bush administration. and as it has been adapted, development has actually cost upwards of $16 billion in total, something that's drawn criticism over the years. but this contract signals a shift and a commitment to production. this is insuring the survival of orion long term, cementing it as a key part of the artemis program. but it also speaks to the turf battle between states after the lunar lander was designated. texas lawmakers loudly voiced opposition so it will be managed by texas johnson space center. one of the lawmakers is quoted very prominently in the release. this really i think gets to the heart of why space is seen as so crucial, no

if you want to stop these drone attacks have vastly expanded radar something great for lockheed martin and raytheon of these l3 harris is my favorite honestly i think the military side of things is the most worrisome. especially as the president tweeted that we are and i quote locked and loaded ready to retaliate presumably against iran the moment the saudis check off on them. we don't need that but who knows what that tweet even means by the way so you know if you could have solar powered drones we could go the world over i'm worried about it the bottom line, i know the stock market's resilience could make if there is an all out strike against iran but, man, i got to tell you it's amazing how the average has shrugged off such a major decline something totally impossible to even think about a decade ago and that's worth keeping in mind. you know what, i'm calling today a victory for the bulls. patty in florida patty. >> caller: hi, jim thanks for taking my call. >> of course >> caller: thanks for all you do for us my question about octa, i bought it at 115 and i'm in the house of pain.

lockheed martin. that brings me to tom. she mentioned the etf but which etfs look attractive to you right now as the etf guy? >> well, as we were just talking about the fed, when you look overseas, there are some great opportunities in foreign equities, for sure, especially if the dollar comes a little bit higher. we get a stronger dollar, it's forced the valuations down in a big way. however, here in the u.s., a lot of money has been going into longer duration bonds and actually less credit quality bonds, into corporates and into high yields, where we are probably going to have one or two more rate cuts going forward. so last year it was a whole different story where rates were tightening, we were in a credit squeeze to a certain degree, then during that period of time, everyone shortened up duration. now it's safe to go longer in duration and lesser credit quality. we see billions that have been going into high yield and corporates right now. liz: look who we have in the chair to join the conversation. steve ott with 80 q

and whether it's big fuel, big fossil fuel or whether it's big corporations like lockheed martin andto the saudis, that's his policy prescription, money, period. >> yeah. and the saudi -- again, you know, our own intelligence chiefs say the saudi prince was implicated in the murder of an american-based journalist with a bone saw and yet donald trump seems to have as much commitment and fielty towards him and the dictator of north korea and the one in russia. it's pretty remarkable whom he alliance himself with. i want to play you this morning his secretary of state, mike pompeo, who earlier today talked about what the u.s. is doing just right regarding iran. >> we are well on our way to forcing the iranian regime to ultimately make the decision to become a normal nation. that's all we've ever asked. friday we tightened sanctions on the regime which put the revolutionary regime in a difficult position. the iranian people applaud that. >> the iranian people applaud that. first of all, it would be nice to pronounce it properly, secretary of state. but is that your view in this case. >>

we have stocks like lockheed martin that are right up there near their highs as well as etfs that areing to be strong. neil: do you get a sense that the iranians feel they maybe stepped a bridge too far here, that the attack on the saudi facility, while successful, that drones could pull it off while everyone was expecting storming by soldiers of the gates of the kingdom, that they didn't anticipate this followup? what do you think? >> i think they didn't anticipate the restraint on the part of the the u.s. and the fact that that horrible despotic aramco strike would make britain, france and germany finally move to the u.s. position. i think they really overplayed. plus it's a terrible strike. it was so precise, so accurate, and you look at that and you say they must never, ever, ever have nuclear weapons because it's too risky. they would actually use them. neil: they probably would. that's what concerns a lot of people. thank you very much, rebecca. >>> one speaker in trouble, one speaker remembering another who was in the exact same trouble. does nancy pelosi risk becoming the next

i believe in august of 2019, a children and adults and it was made by lockheed martin.saudi arabia, they have been killing a lot of people. , and actually, trump when he pulled out of the iran deal, he will actually get us into war. now they've got him pushed into a corner. when cheney went in and started the war with iraq, he destroyed the natural enemy, hussein, they sent an 11-year-old kid after him of guns. now we are in this position where we are a gun for hire now, for saudi arabia, it sounds like. a weapons dealer, it sounds like. i wonder, is it going to lead us into a war? sure looks like it to me. host: doug in south dakota. ian williams, your comment. guest: he brings up a point of friction with u.s. reporting saudi arabia. saudi arabia has been engaged in a very long intervention in human where many civilians have been killed. we see this friction even in congress with a lot of congresspeople really hesitating and speaking out against us going to war, taking military arabia, and idi think those voices probably had a big influence in keeping the u.s. restrain

nasa ordering up new orion rockets from lockheed martin for future moon missions.ut we are intrigued about this moon mission. take us inside it, will you? what's these new rockets going to be like and when and where are they going? >> so the orion crew capsule, that's the vehicle that sits at the top of the rocket, where our astronauts will actually fly to the moon. we are doing things differently this time. fu go ba if you go back to the 1960s and 1970s, all of our vehicles got thrown away during the course of the mission. i would say the capsules came back but they ended up in museums. we are looking at reusing the crew capsules and reusing elements of the crew capsules, for example, the electronics that are inside, the avionics, the switching panels and the seats. we are taking as much of the crew capsule as possible and we are going to reuse it to drive down costs and increase access to the lunar surface but we have to keep in mind this is not just about the moon. this is about having an ability to get to mars. ultimately, what we are building is the mission to
