(Investrend Research Syndicate) Terrorist activities in the U.S.
and abroad have ushered in a new era of urgency and devotion to
protect against future attacks, and in the U.S., the Department of
Homeland Security will continue to have a profound influence on how
the private sector evolves to address national security
initiatives, says Investrend Research analyst Ryan Fuhrmann, CFA,
in the initiating Homeland Security Sector report, including
special Spotlight coverage on such key HS corporations as Groen
Brothers Aviation (OTCBB: GNBA), McAfee, Inc. (NYSE: MFE) and
Viisage Technology (NASDAQ: VISG). The coverage, commissioned by
Cronus Capital Markets (http://www.cronuscapitalmarkets.com), which
partners with the 400-member Homeland Security Industries
Association (http://www.hsianet.org), and provides the homeland
security sector index in partnership with International Securities
Exchange (NYSE: ISE), will be updated quarterly, and is the first
to continuously monitor the new homeland security sector. The
report is available in its entirety, along with the Sector
Spotlights at http://www.investrendresearch.com In it, the analyst
also stated: Homeland Security equities have "experienced
significant share price appreciation since 2001," with Lehman
Brothers (NYSE: LEH) alone estimating 27 stocks it follows
appreciated nearly 320% in a three-year period that began August,
2001, compared to the S&P's 5% during the same period. The
sector is driven by a $49.9 billion request by the current
administration, up 8.6% from FY2005, with spending earmarked for
enhanced domestic security, improved counterrism measures,
infrastructure protection and improved services for other federal
programs and industry. The Groen Brothers Aviation Sector Spotlight
report analyst was Gary Vassalotti. Enrollment in standards-based
