11:06 Defensive, Multinational Stks Up If Rates Drop: Strategist

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Defensive growth and multinational stocks could thrive
into the new year, according to A.G. Edwards & Sons Inc. Chief Equity
Strategist Stuart Freeman.

Over the next several months, "we think the Fed has a good chance of dropping
rates," Freeman told CNBC Monday, suggesting that a rate cut would help these
stocks.

Defensive growth and multinational stocks were hurt by the dollar's strength
in the last few quarters, Freeman said.

"A decline in the dollar later in the year would create an attractive
environment for these stocks," he said. A decline could add "2% or 3% operating
earnings growth for these stocks."

Freeman likes Pfizer Inc. (PFE), Procter & Gamble Co. (PG), Coca-Cola Co.
(KO) and First Union Corp. (FTU).
