Lockheed Martin stock slides after Patriot missile deal, Goldman sticks to $430 sell target

Lockheed Martin stock slides after Patriot missile deal, Goldman sticks to $430 sell target

Lockheed Martin has struck a seven-year framework agreement with the U.S. Department of War to more than triple production capacity of its PAC-3 missile interceptors, a key part of the Patriot air-defense system. Output is expected to rise to about 2,000 a year from roughly 600 as demand for air defenses climbs, and the missiles have also been supplied to Ukraine. The U.S. military awarded Lockheed a record $9.8 billion contract in September for 1,970 Patriot missiles. Reuters The deal lands as the department tries to push munitions into a faster, steadier production rhythm, after years of complaint about long lead times and thin stockpiles. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said the new acquisition model aims to “stabilize demand signals” and award “bigger, longer contracts” so firms invest to expand capacity. U.S. Department of War

JPMorgan set to take over Apple Card from Goldman in $20 billion switch

JPMorgan set to take over Apple Card from Goldman in $20 billion switch

JPMorgan Chase has struck a deal to take over Apple Inc.’s credit-card program from Goldman Sachs, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter. JPMorgan would become the new issuer — the bank that extends the credit and runs the account — for Apple Card, one of the largest co-branded card programs in the United States with about $20 billion in balances, the report said. JPMorgan and Goldman declined to comment, and Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Reuters For JPMorgan, the deal would deepen its grip on credit cards and bring it closer to Apple as more payments move through phones, watches and other devices. For Goldman, it would mark another step in a pullback from consumer finance that the Journal said has cost the firm more than $7 billion. Wall Street Journal
