Stop Loss Adjustments
==================================================================
VSEA - tech short -
No surprises here. VSEA rallied sharply after the positive INTC
news. Watch the $32 level for resistance.
PDCO - non-tech long -
PDCO creeps to a new all-time high.
USB - non-tech long -
We were a bit worried when USB traded under the $30.00 level
today but shares rebounded and now it looks like a potential
bullish entry point.
EP - non-tech long -
Be ready. We're still untriggered as we wait for EP to trade
at $10.61 but the stock appears to be coiling for a move higher.

New Bullish Plays
-----------------
Boeing - BA - close: 51.94 change: +1.12 stop: 49.95
Company Description:
With a heritage that mirrors the first 100 years of flight, The
Boeing Company provides products and services to customers in 145
countries. Boeing has been the premier manufacturer of commercial
jetliners for more than 40 years and is a global market leader in
military aircraft, satellites, missile defense, human space flight,
and launch systems and services. Total company revenues for 2003
were $50.5 billion. (source: company website)
Why We Like It:
Recent news that the U.S. and the E.U. plan to back away from a
legal fight over alleged subsidies for Boeing and its European
rival Airbus should be good news for BA. Bulls will be quick to
note that shares have been consolidating near support at the $50
mark and its rising 200-dma. We believe that after a month of
trending lower in December shares of BA look poised to make another
run towards the $55.00-55.50 region. The MACD indicator is nearing
a new buy signal and short-term technicals are already positive.
We want to go long now and target a move to the $55.00 mark. We do
not plan to hold over its early February earnings announcement.
Annotated chart:
Picked on January 12 at $51.94
Gain since picked: + 0.00
Earnings Date 02/02/05 (confirmed)
Average Daily Volume: 3.2 million

Raytheon Co - RTN - close: 37.25 change: +0.71 stop: 36.25
Company Description:
Raytheon Company, with 2003 sales of $18.1 billion, is an
industry leader in defense and government electronics, space,
information technology, technical services, and business and
special mission aircraft. With headquarters in Waltham, Mass.,
Raytheon employs more than 78,000 people worldwide.
(source: company press release)
Why We Like It:
Defense stocks have been somewhat beat up the last few weeks as
investors worried about cuts in defense spending. Yet it seems the
sell-off was only temporary. The DFI defense index is rebounding
from very consistent technical support at its rising 100-dma. This
has helped RTN form a new short-term bottom above the $36 level and
now shares of the stock are beginning to break higher again. The
MACD indicator is improving and short-term technicals are already
bullish. There is some resistance at $38.00 but we suspect that
RTN could make it to $40.00 by its early February earnings report.
Annotated chart:
Picked on January 12 at $37.25
Gain since picked: + 0.00
Earnings Date 02/03/05 (confirmed)
Average Daily Volume: 1.7 million
