An analyst's bullish new note on Lockheed Martin provided lift to the company's stock on an otherwise bearish Wednesday trading session.

Lockheed Martin's shares closed the day almost 2% higher in price, providing quite the contrast to the tumbling S&P 500's 2.2% decline.

Analyst Kristine Liwag of Morgan Stanley changed her Lockheed Martin recommendation to overweight (i.e., buy) from equal weight (hold).
