Did a little buying today - it felt good. Took up some light positions in CWTR and CMTL.
Good thing we agree? Why defense in 2006?/QUOTE] Congress dosen't dare cut the defense budget in today's world. I think it'll have minimal growth in 06, but it should be 'safe' growth. I like Rockwell Collins, Northrop Grumman, L3, and maybe Boeing if they get the machinists' strike settled.....
So far this has been a bad week in a bad month. Sept is historically bad for stocks. Hoping Oct will be better, especially if Q3 earnings are good.....

Five of the 10 leading economic indicators improved in August, while three declined. Consumer expectations was the biggest contributor to the decline in the index. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch were expecting the leading index to fall 0.3%. The coincident index increased 0.2% in August, while the lagging index fell 0.1%. The previously reported 0.1% increase in the leading index for July was revised to a 0.1% decline.
