200 DMA SUPPORT Many of the stocks I posted over the weekend closed below their 200 dma or have dropped more than 15% in the last five trading days, which was a criterion I used for selection. The stocks left are as follows: AT ALLTEL CORP 44.875 -0.812 BOCB BUFFETS INC 12.625 -1.250 BUD ANHEUSER BUSCH COS INC 46.750 -1.750 CTL CENTURY TEL ENTERPRISES 45.375 -1.625 DORL DORAL FINL CORP 15.000 -1.125 F FORD MTR CO DEL 44.625 -3.062 GD GENERAL DYNAMICS CORP 47.562 1.125 GLH GALLAHER GROUP PLC 23.500 -0.625 LAMR LAMAR ADVERTISING CO 32.500 -2.750 NWL NEWELL CO 47.750 -1.562 PVT PROVIDENT COS INC 36.000 -0.625 SCG SCANA CORP 30.688 0.062 TCOMA TELE COMMUNICATIONS INC 33.000 -1.938 VCELA VANGUARD CELLULAR SYS INC 18.750 -0.875 WPSN WESTPOINT STEVENS INC 29.625 -1.000 WR WESTERN RES INC 40.312 0.125 "SAFE HAVENS" BSE BEC ENERGY 39.625 -0.062 CPL CAROLINA PWR & LT CO 43.062 0.312 DTE DTE ENERGY CO 42.125 -0.562 ED CONSOLIDATED EDISON 47.312 -0.500 MTP MONTANA PWR CO 39.000 -1.312 NVP NEVADA PWR CO 24.812 0.062 OGE OGE ENERGY CORP 27.562 0.000 PCG PG&E CORP 32.125 -0.750 PEG PUBLIC SVC ENTERPRISES 36.500 0.125 PPL P P & L RES INC 23.625 -0.375 SO SOUTHERN CO 28.125 0.438 TE TECO ENERGY INC 26.562 -0.250 TXU TEXAS UTILS CO 42.500 -1.500 New home stats seemed to have begun today's fall, and I would not think that would bode well for issues like HD, LOW, BBBY, etc. One issue that was dropped from the list because of the significance of its five day fall was Burlington Coat Factory (BCF). Not that I would encourage anyone to do anything at this time, but the company did report increased same store sales, and I know that as bad as things may get in places like upstate NY where I live, my kids are still going to need winter coats.
