Sector Talk-- Aerospace-Defense
Earlier this week a screen for short-term forecast return leaders provided some
interesting results. We queried our database looking for tickers ranked in the top 2%
One-Month Forecast Return category with share prices in excess of $3.00 and
average volume of 100k shares/day. When we sorted the results by composite score--
a broader quality measure which takes into account momentum, valuation, p/e
ratio, and market cap as well as the short-term forecast return--we found our results
dominated by Aerospace-Defense Sector firms.
One wonders how these firms can be doing so well given the possibility of future
defense cuts, but analysts note that many have been preparing for that eventuality
by cutting work forces and paring back on expenses. Like so many other big firms, the
austerity measures are now paying dividends to the bottom line. The sector as a
whole is calculated to be overvalued, but the level of overvaluation is mild
compared to that found in the Basic Materials and Energy sectors.
Below, we present various top-five lists for the Aerospace-Defense Sector from
our Institutional software package (VEI). These results were filtered by market price
and volume--no results below 3$/share or less than 100k shares/day volume.

--FDIC Q3 2010 Report is Posted

Suttmeier's Banking Report Finds A System Under Continuing Stress
ValuEngine Chief Market Strategist Richard Suttmeier is an expert on the US
Banking System and uses the health of the system as a leading economic
indicator. He distills his thoughts on the banking system in our FDIC Report. The latest
update of the report is now available.
Suttmeier remains bearish in his outlook for both US banks as well as the US
housing market. In his summary of the report he notes the following:
The FDIC Quarterly Banking Profile for Q3 2010 essentially shows the
banking system in limbo as earnings improve slightly with net income at $14.5
billion up from $2 billion a year earlier, but below the incomes of Q1 and Q2.
The rise in net income is a result of lower loan-loss provisions, which masks the
fact that the banking system still has significant risk to real estate loans that are
kept current as percentage of loans outstanding versus loan commitments
increase adding stress to bank balance sheets particularly among community
banks
The Federal Reserve has embarked on a $600 billion QE2 program that is
designed to lower US Treasury yields to help consumer rates on Main Street. The
yield on the 10-Year was 2.334 on October 8th in anticipation of QE2. That yield
was 3.054 on December 3rd, up 72 basis points, which to me defines total
failure for the Federal Reserve.
We recently learned that the Unemployment Rate in the United States
rose to 9.8% as the number of unemployed Americans jumped 300,000 in
November. Recent surveys of home prices are showing another round of
declines, and 25% on home sales consist of depressed properties sold through
foreclosures and short sales.
 The National Association of Home Builders complains that they would
start to build more homes if community banks would provide construction
loans. Community banks are reluctant to do so as C&D loans continue to be
the bulk of their problem loans dating back to 2003 through 2007.
Thus I conclude that the “Great Credit Crunch” continues and private
investors need an FDIC program to help clear the pipeline and provide capital
to return banks back to the business of lending.
Without a housing recovery—which is necessary to improve the health of
the community banks, Main Street USA will remain under duress as high
unemployment will continue to retard economic growth.
A critical portion of this report is the ValuEngine List of Problem Banks. Problem
banks are publicly traded FDIC insured financial institutions who are overexposed to
Construction & Development Loans and/or Nonfarm nonresidential real estate loans,
with “1-Engine”--Strong Sell, or “2-Engine”—Sell. The report also includes a listing of all
other engine-rated banks-- and those with “n/a” ratings but forecast figure data
points according to our models-- in violation of FDIC guidelines vis-a-vis loan
exposures.
As of December 9, 2010, there were 240 banks overexposed to C&D and/or
CRE loans in the ValuEngine database with full data coverage. There were four
additional overexposed banks with partial data coverage.
Of these overexposed banks, 62 were rated “1-Engine” Strong Sells, 64 were
rated “2-Engine” Sells, 106 were rated “3-Engine” Holds, seven were rated a “4-
Engine” Buy, and one was rated a “5-Engine” Strong Buy.
This means that there are currently 126 banks rated Sell or Strong Sell that are
also overexposed to C&D and/or CRE loans.
There are 280 additional institutions listed as a problem bank list but do not
appear in the ValuEngine database but are carrying C&D and/or CRE loans in excess
of the FDIC guidelines.

Our latest ValuEngine FDIC Report is now posted. The report contains loan
exposure and/or ValuEngine datapoints on valuation, forecast, and ratings for all of the
institutions on our List of Problem Banks.

--Commentary and Analysis from Chief Market Strategist
Richard Suttmeier

If you have any comments or questions, send them to Rsuttmeier@Gmail.com

Treasury Yields
10-Year-- (3.225) Daily and semiannual value levels are 3.306 and
3.479 with a weekly pivot at 3.142, and annual pivots at 2.999 and
2.813, and quarterly, semiannual and monthly risky levels at 2.265,
2.249 and 1.949. The US Treasury yields have stabilized since the
$21 billion 10-Year note auction that came at 3.340 on Wednesday.

Commodities and Forex

Comex Gold-- ($1385.9) Quarterly, semiannual and annual value levels are $1306.4,
$1260.8, $1218.7 and $1115.2 with a weekly pivot at $1400.5, and daily and monthly
risky levels at $1422.9 and $1443.5. Comex Gold reached that all time high at $1432.5
on Tuesday and remains above its 50-day simple moving average now at $1361.9.
Gold has been above the rising 50-day since August 12th.

Nymex Crude-- (($88.45) Semiannual, annual and monthly value levels are $83.94,
$77.05 and $75.50 with a weekly pivot at $86.30, and daily, semiannual and annual
risky levels at $89.85, $96.53 and $97.29. Nymex Crude oil traded to a 52-week high at
$90.76 on Tuesday and my semiannual value level remains at $83.94. Note that
Tuesday was a Key Reversal Day.
The Euro--(1.3244) My monthly value level is 1.2500 with daily and quarterly pivots at
1.3339 and 1.3318, and weekly and semiannual risky levels at 1.3473 and 1.4733.The
euro remains below my quarterly pivot at 1.3318 with the 200-day at 1.3115.

Major Indices
The S&P 500 closed above its 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement at 1228.74, but will
that be enough to pull the Dow Industrials to a close above 11444.08 to confirm
another Dow Theory Buy Signal? Or, will the S&P fail with the Dow having a double-
top at 11,450 instead?

The Dow--
Daily: (11,370) Semiannual, annual, monthly and quarterly value levels are 10,558,
10,379, 10,325 and 8,523 with annual and semiannual pivots at 11,235 and 11,296, and
weekly and daily risky levels at 11,440 and 11,579. The Dow Industrial Average needs
a close above 11444.08 to confirm another Dow Theory Buy Signal. If not the Dow risks
a double-top at 11,450 instead.
