Lockheed Martin, in for a little turbulance!
from the dropping-profits-aren't-fun dept
After its announcement of investment of $900 million into astrolink, it's not a great surprize that Lockheed have had to give a profit warning for the year 2000. Sometimes its worth a little financial strain to reap the benefits of investment later on. I still think that Lockheed have a pretty healthy future, as long as things go well for astrolink.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
