Hewlet Packard (HPQ) Update

Not surprising, a whole bunch of familiar faces appeared: GAP, GM, Wendy's, and Yahoo. Unless you strongly disagree with their analysis, the following stocks should probably be avoided in the near term: Avalonbay Communities (AVB) Bausch & Lomb (BOL) Block (H&R) (HRB) Countrywide Financial (CFC) Dollar General (DG) Eastman Kodak (EK) Gap Inc. (GPS) General Motors (GM) Janus Capital (JNS) KB Home (KBH) Lennar Corp. (LEN) Novell Inc. (NOVL) PG&E Corp. (PCG) Qwest Communications (Q) RadioShack Corp. (RSH) Sara Lee (SLE) Wendy's International (WEN) Yahoo Inc. (YHOO)
