THE BARRONS

Barrons with some interesting articles- a bullish call on MS/GS as they appear to be benefiting from less competition- EPS estimates for GS at $8.29 and MS at $2.48 for 2009 and PE's at /near 10- looks good if the numbers come as expected. Beware- both have already had nice run ups in 2009 after a disastrous 2008.

Bullish on AVP as value is enhanced by a growing worldwide sales force, cost cutting and a nice hoard of cash.

Bullish on DTV as the NFL Sunday ticket continues to drive subs- Barrons says DTV could eventually be taken out by LINTA or NWS.
