Long Ideas For The Terror Alert

Treasury prices are higher this morning, on increased terror threats from the State Department, which warned about potential terrorist attacks in Europe.

"The Treasury market was bid overnight, ostensibly owing to the heightened terrorism concerns in Europe," said strategists at CRT Capital Group.

A couple of ideas to keep in mind today are Stanley, Inc. (NYSE: SXE) and American Science & Engineering, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASEI), which are companies that focus on the defense sector.

ASEI focuses on the development, manufacture, marketing, and sale of X-ray inspection and other detection solutions.

Stanley sells IT-services to U.S. defense and intelligence agencies.
