Buy: JNJ (67.80) breaking higher with in-line earnings forecast due Tuesday, Jan. 23rd
















Rationale: Johnson & Johnson (JNJ 67.80) is breaking higher from a two month consolidation. The fundamental news has maintained a positive tone while money managers, once again, are committing to a large cap presence in their portfolios. Technically, after hitting new Oct '06 highs and consolidating, JNJ appears poised to re-test the $69.41 high. Longer-term, expect a re-test of the May '05 high of $69.99.

Target: $69.99 (May '05 high)
Stop: 64.75 (below current support levels)
