Better Defense Dividend: Boeing Vs. Lockheed Martin

The following video is part of our "Better Dividend Buy" series. In this edition, Fool analysts Eric Bleeker and Andrew Tonner weigh two dividend champions of the defense industry: Boeing and Lockheed Martin. While Lockheed Martin sports a heady dividend yield pushing past 5%, both Eric and Andrew appreciate the diversification of Boeing's business. Its commercial airlines business gives it diversification from a defense industry with a rocky-looking future and an entry into fast-growing emerging markets.
