Sundry Photography/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Lockheed Martin ( LMT ) on Tuesday said it completed an initial live-fire test of its Grizzly launcher, a containerized system designed to fire Hellfire missiles from a compact, transportable platform. Live-fire test of Grizzly vertical launcher (Lockheed Martin) The test marked the first integrated demonstration of both vertical launch and live missile firing from the system, which is housed inside a standard 10-foot Tricon shipping container. The company said the launcher successfully met key performance requirements during the trial. Grizzly is being developed as a mobile launch solution that can be deployed across a range of environments. By using an enclosed container, the system is intended to be easier to transport and less conspicuous than traditional launch platforms. The launcher incorporates components derived from existing systems, including the M299 launcher, and relies in part on commercially available materials. Lockheed Martin said this approach is aimed at reducing production timelines and simplifying logistics compared with more complex weapons systems. The company began developing Grizzly roughly six months prior to the test, funded through internal investment. Lockheed Martin ( LMT ) said it will continue working with the U.S. government to refine the system based on data collected during the demonstration. The effort reflects a broader trend in defense toward more flexible and mobile weapons systems that can be deployed quickly and adapted to different operational needs.

JoeyCheung/iStock Editorial via Getty Images SEI Select Emerging Market Equity ETF Outlook Emerging markets are poised to face a new set of headwinds following their strong outperformance in 2025. However, emerging markets were trading at only 13.5x forward earnings towards the end of February, and have since declined by around 8% on the back of new geopolitical tensions. The broader MSCI EM Index is favorable based on valuation and earnings growth, and still looks like a hold, even though emerging economies will be hit with higher inflation this year. The SEI Select Emerging Market Equity ETF ( SEEM ) is an interesting vehicle to monitor. SEEM has slightly outperformed the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF ( EEM ) since its inception in late 2024. SEEM is worth considering if you want to maintain passive exposure to emerging markets in this environment and don't want to bet on individual country/commodity-based narratives in the market. Data by YCharts The SEI Select Emerging Market Equity ETF has several unique characteristics relative to the MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, and it also has a lower management fee. SEEM's combined approach makes SEEM a slightly superior vehicle compared to EEM. Emerging market macro risks, most notably inflation, have accelerated in recent weeks, and equities will likely continue to sell off in Q2 2026. Emerging markets also strongly rallied in 2025, so this quarter is not likely the best entry point. However, earnings growth for EM equities is very favorable, and SEEM looks like an acceptable vehicle for maintaining general exposure to emerging markets. SEEM should continue its slight outperformance of the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF in 2026 and 2027. SEI Select Emerging Market Equity ETF Overview The SEI Select Emerging Market Equity ETF is a newer ETF that was listed in October 2024. SEEM tracks some of the top emerging market names in the market and utilizes quantitative techniques in its portfolio composition process. SEEM is ...

Every investor wants to find the top stocks and ride them as far as they'll go. For those who concentrate on growth stocks, finding the biggest winners is the hallmark of ultimate success. Both here at The Motley Fool and elsewhere, the top-performing stock portfolios often feature just a small handful of stocks that have generated life-changing returns, and those few big winners have been enough to turn what would have been adequate performance into market-crushing returns. Yet not every growth investor has the time, inclination, or discipline to find winning individual stocks and hold them for the long term. For them, exchange-traded funds offer an attractive way to get growth-stock exposure without the high maintenance of having to do ongoing research. Vanguard Growth ETF (NYSEMKT: VUG) has been a great choice for investors seeking to profit from growth stocks, and as you learned in the first installment of this three-article series for the Voyager Portfolio , Vanguard Growth follows a relatively simple methodology that has identified some truly great companies. In this article, you'll find out exactly how well Vanguard Growth has done compared to its peers. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

lcva2/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Microsoft: Caught In The Forest Fire - Justified? For the past five weeks, I have been thinking very carefully about the survivability of the software narrative. After all, while we have been inundated by events linked to the ongoing Iranian conflict, I still hope to impress upon you that it's been about a month since we were all awakened by the now famous (or infamous) Substack post that pontificated about the 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis , of which the “thought experiment” also includes the end of (much of) software as we know it. Back in my previous update of Microsoft Corporation ( MSFT ) in January, I didn't quite expect the software Armageddon portrayal to go into overdrive, and send many of the software stocks by the wayside, including that of Microsoft. So, investors have arguably suffered, and are looking for answers as to whether MSFT could still offer some of the safe harbor dynamics from the maelstrom that has collapsed just about most software stocks that I’m familiar with. And if the king of SaaS isn't immune from the FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt), how could the rest of them survive? SMH/IGV price chart (long term, monthly) (TradingView) But to be fair, this software apocalypse, forest fire, or SaaS Armageddon has been engulfing software stocks for a some time. If you take a look at the trend bias between semiconductors ( SMH ) and software ( IGV ) for the several years now, as outlined in the above chart, semiconductor outperformance is not a recent phenomenon, is it? If you observed the price action signals from the SMH/IGV chart as shown, the level of software disruption fears surged in the past few months (vertical line up), before reaching a crescendo in February, and then pulling back this month, helping to stem some of the selling pressure that has battered SaaS stocks this year.
