British nuclear submarine yard reopens after brief evacuation
A shipyard in Barrow-in-Furness, northwest England, that builds Britain's new generation of nuclear submarines reopened on Wednesday after being briefly evacuated due to an incident, defence company BAE Systems said. "Following an extensive sweep of the Devonshire Dock Complex (DDC), including the four Astute class submarines in build, nothing suspicious was found," the company said in a statement. It did not specify the nature of the incident but an unidentified source told The Mail, a publication based in Barrow-in-Furness, that the evacuation followed a warning about a bomb on one of the Astute-class submarines.

4 of the Best OTC Stocks to Buy for Future Growth
[Editor's note: This story was previously published in February 2019. It has since been updated and republished.] Not all American stocks trade on the major exchanges. In fact, many investors often forget the stocks that trade on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB). Some refer to these OTC stocks to buy as equities that trade on the "pink sheets," named for the color of the paper on which they were printed before electronic trading became more widespread.Instead of using exchanges, such trades occur over computer networks.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsStocks end up on the pink sheets either because they either don't meet or have not attempted to meet the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq. Often OTC stocks have become penny stocks involuntarily. They often fail to meet listing requirements due to financial strains. * 7 Marijuana Stocks to Play the CBD Trend However, one should not assume all OTC stocks trade as penny stocks near bankruptcy. In fact, some OTC stocks have become some of the largest and most successful companies in the world. This sometimes occurs with foreign companies that trade on the major exchanges in their home countries.Despite their prestige at home, these companies may turn to OTC markets to test the U.S. market. If their stock becomes one of the OTC stocks to buy, they will subsequently switch to the NYSE or Nasdaq at a later time. Others may not want to meet the financial disclosure standards required by the exchanges.Whatever the reason, traders should not ignore the OTC markets. In fact, investors looking for OTC stocks to buy may want to consider these five:Source: Shutterstock BAE Systems (BAESY)BAE (OTCMKTS:BAESY) operates in the defense, security and aerospace industries. Based in Farnborough, England, BAE has grown into the U.K.'s largest defense contractor. Despite its presence in its home country, 75% of its revenue comes from outside of the U.K.Revenue and earnings have seen slower growth over the last few years. However, the Trump Administration's attitude toward European defense may force these governments to shoulder more of the defense burden. Furthermore, threats from the Middle East and fears of Russia continue to worsen.Such concerns play into the hands of defense contractors such as BAE. The stock has traded in a range since 2015. A focus on defense within Europe could send it higher. Net income also appears set to move higher. If profit predictions hold up, the forward P/E will hold at about the 15 level. This stands well below the 31.5 average P/E over the last five years.Moreover, even though the stock shows little movement, the dividend helps it become an ideal OTC stock to buy. The dividend saw an increase this year. Shareholders now earn a dividend yield at around 4.5%. Even if the stock takes longer than anticipated to move higher, BAESY stock pays investors well to wait.Still, with the current geopolitical environment, BAE investors will likely not have to wait for very long.Source: Shutterstock Sberbank of Russia (SBRCY)Admittedly, Sberbank (OTCMKTS:SBRCY) might seem too risky to become one of the better OTC stocks to buy. With the focus on Russian collusion and a relationship between Trump and Putin that has become too comfortable for many, the thought of investing in Russia seems scary.However, some see opportunity amid the fear. American investors such as Jim Rogers have recently sought investment opportunities in Russia. Mr. Rogers cites a strong ruble, a market well off all-time highs and high real interest rates as the reason. SBRCY stock could position an investor for these returns.Sberbank has become the largest bank in Russia. It holds more in assets than the next six largest competitors combined. Sberbank performs retail, corporate and investment banking within Russia. It also invests heavily in Central and Eastern Europe. * 7 Beaten-Up Stocks to Buy as They Reverse Course At a $70 billion market cap, it pales in size to U.S. banking giants such as Citigroup (NYSE:C) or Bank of America (NYSE:BAC). It also seems to struggle with gaining respect, though this could work to an investor's advantage. SBRCY stock trades at a P/E of only five or so, well below that of BAC stock. This is despite the fact that revenues have increased by an average of 18.9%-per-year over the last five years.Moreover, dividends have seen sustained growth over the last three years. Today, SBRCY stock pays a dividend of about 4.65%. In today's market, anything related to Russia has become clouded in controversy. However, those that can look past the drama could find a bargain in SBRCY stock.Source: Shutterstock Softbank (SFTBY)Even though it could become one of the more profitable OTC stocks to buy, Softbank (OTCMKTS:SFTBY) has not become a household name. However, this Japanese holding conglomerate has grown to a little more than a $107 billion market cap by investing in some of the better-known names in the tech industry in both the U.S. and Japan.Softbank lists Yahoo! Japan, Uber and WeWork among its investments. Still, its most famous investments are its 28% stake in Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) and its ownership of about 83% of Sprint (NYSE:S). In fact, one attempt to merge Sprint with T-Mobile (NASDAQ:TMUS) failed because it would have required Softbank to sell too many of its assets.Investors should look at SFTBY stock like a mutual fund. If the T-Mobile-Sprint merger goes through, this will give Softbank a significant stake in America's fastest-growing telecom company as 5G begins to take off. Whenever the IPO in Uber finally happens, this should boost Softbank further.SFTBY stock also reported a 49% increase in earnings in its latest quarter. Investments in WeWork and Indian ecommerce firm Flipkart drove much of the net income increase. As a result, SFTBY stock trades less than 10% off its all-time high.With its profitable investments and its prospects for the future, SFTBY should continue to report strong results for many quarters to come.Source: Shutterstock Tencent (TCEHY)Tencent (OTCMKTS:TCEHY) has become the largest OTC stock trading today. With a $423 billion market cap, the Shenzhen and Cayman Islands-based conglomerate has grown into one of the world's largest companies.Tencent serves the Chinese market in the internet, social networking, gaming, payment systems, ecommerce, venture capital and many other areas. The company competes with the likes of Alibaba and JD.com (NASDAQ:JD) at home.Overseas, Tencent's influence is also felt in the U.S. as it competes with Activision (NASDAQ:ATVI) and other gaming companies for market share in the emerging esports field. This only scratches the surface of Tencent's influence. * 10 Stocks on the Rise Heading Into the Second Quarter Due to its reach and growth, Tencent's size impact has become too large to ignore. Even with the growth, the forward P/E stands at about 31. While its P/E stands well above S&P 500's average, it has reached a tiny fraction of the P/E where Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) trades.To me, 20% less percentage growth to buy in at one-sixth of the P/E sounds like a worthwhile trade-off. Given the lower P/E relative to earnings growth and its position in the emerging Chinese market, TCEHY should serve as one of the best OTC stocks to buy despite its size.As of this writing, Will Healy did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned stocks.

BAE Systems warns of risk from German stance on Saudi arms
Leading British defence contractor BAE Systems said German moves to block exports to Saudi Arabia could damage its major deals with the country and weigh on its financial performance. BAE said it was reliant on the approval of export licences by a number of governments in order to continue supplies to Saudi Arabia. "The position on export licensing currently adopted by the German government may affect the group's ability to provide the required capability to the kingdom," it said in its annual financial results on Thursday, adding it was working with British authorities to minimise the risk.

BAE chairman: UK should be 'critical friend' to Riyadh - Sky News
The killing of Jamal Khashoggi and Yemen's war have hurt Saudi Arabia's reputation, the chairman of BAE Systems told Sky News, adding Britain as a "critical friend" could help Riyadh refocus on the development push it was making before those crises emerged. The death of Khashoggi, a Washington Post columnist and critic of de facto Saudi ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, sparked global outrage and mushroomed into a crisis for the world's top oil exporter and strategic ally of the West. It also raised questions about Western business activity in the kingdom where BAE, Britain's biggest defence company, and its partners are currently engaged in a multi-billion pound deal to sell Typhoon fighter planes.
