The Motley Fool writer is clueless on LMT and G.

LMT was not a backer of G*. This is really more a part of the ongoing LOR v. LMT drama. What you have to understand is that LMT is needing to unload its 20%+ holding in LOR. If it takes any adverse action against G*, that will further erode its ability to get out of LOR. So, LMT may bitch and moan, but it is a little stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Who'd a thunk Bernie would be able to get LMT to pony up big time loan bucks for G*? Chase has been paid off in full. QCOM's share relatively peanuts - LOR kicks in $57 million, (indemnity to LMT) the bulk of the balance by LMT.

So, I guess now LMT "is" a (reluctant) backer of G*.
