With malware and virus activity on the rise in 2008, this Barron's article postulates that "The $30 billion computer-security industry is booming." But not all security companies are created equal, and the author beliefs that McAfee's (MFE: sentiment, chart, options) prospects far outweigh those of its competitor Symantec (SYMC: sentiment, chart, options) . "Both are reasonably priced and both have fans with compelling arguments. But we have to give the edge to McAfee. The company has a better track record in recent years and, as the smaller of the two, it may well be more nimble."

Over the last 52 weeks the stock has ranged from a low of $25.22 to a high of $41.66. MFE shares are declining today after competitor Symantec (SYMC) posted a third-quarter profit forecast below analysts' projections. MFE reports earnings today after market close. Technical indicators for the stock are neutral and S&P gives MFE a neutral 3 STARS (out of 5) hold ranking. If you are looking for a hedged play on MFE the stock seems like it could be a candidate for a November out-of-the-money bear-call credit spread above the 30 range.
