(FOOL GLOBAL WIRE)
by Robert Sheard (MF DowMan)

LEXINGTON, KY. (September 11): The only news of any import for our Investing For Growth stocks was a late announcement yesterday by Nichols Research that it has received several new contract awards or contract modifications which total $100 million over the next eight years. Even on the contract announcements, though, Nichols fell a half-point on the day.

One of the featured recent awards was a subcontract by AT&T <% if gsSubBrand = "aolsnapshot" then Response.Write("(NYSE:T)") else Response.Write("(NYSE:T)") end if %> to support a Department of Defense computer modification program.

Another Dow component, Boeing <% if gsSubBrand = "aolsnapshot" then Response.Write("(NYSE:BA)") else Response.Write("(NYSE:BA)") end if %>, granted the company a subcontract to support the Defense Enterprise Integration Services II Program. Boeing is sharing in this award with five other contractors in the multi-award DEIS II contract which will have a five-year life cycle ceiling of $2.5 billion for the Department of Defense plus $0.5 billion for other federal agencies.

Other movers and shakers today: Quick & Reilly, Paychex, and SCI Systems all posted solid gains, while RoTech Medical continues to drag the entire portfolio down with yet another grim day.

That's all for today, fools. Enjoy your mid-week parties. (Come on, admit it. You're already yearning for Friday night!)
