Lockheed Martin (LMT) stands out as a stock to own in 2018. LMT's phenomenal growth, dividend, more advantaged tax position (given the recent corporate tax reduction from 35%-20%), and defensiveness during a market correction make it a very compelling investment opportunity. LMT's stock price performance throughout 2017 was comparable to its performance over the past five years; LMT boasted continued price increases of 24.51% in 2017, 17.93% in 2016, and 12.33% in 2015.
