Good thread on defense stocks here: Subject 51733. Security stocks are INVN and MAGS and a few others I hadn't heard about before this incident.

I won't touch the IDX issue.

Re: Defense Stocks

Awhile back I made an investment in Viisage which is a microcap stock and is one of two companies that focus on Biometric Face Scanning. Visionics is the other. Since the tragedy, their stock has been going like gangbusters rising from 2 to over 5.

In addition to face scanning I believe they have some 35 or so states in which they issue the drivers licence cards.

I am not touting this stock and suggest everyone do their DD. I believe it is a high risk stock however I also feel that they will be a strong factor in highly sensitive security sites.

I would appreciate comments from anyone.

Regards
Bob T.
