Lockheed Martin’s (LMT) stock price and dividend have risen sharply this year amid strong global demand for its next-generation F-35 Lightning II fighter jet. Shares of the defense contractor are near an all-time high after climbing almost 28% this year, easily outpacing the S&P 500’s increase of nearly 12%. Lockheed also recently boosted its quarterly dividend by 13% to $1.50 a share.
