"One of the dirty secrets that few finance professionals will openly admit is the fact that dividend stocks as a group handily outperform their non-dividend paying brethren. The reasons for this are too numerous to list here, but you can rest assured that it’s true."

Oh, as long as I can rest assured that it's true, that's fine then. No need for proof.

terrible article here

Dangerous missiles? - these are defense oriented missiles aka to prevent being attacked

13B contracts are almost never (if ever) executed in one year. That is total contract value and likely spread over years if not a decade.

It is not scandalous to sell defensive weapons to allies. This has been going on for years. The US has the most robust and advanced defense industry. We should be happy that America is profiting from our ingenuity.
