The infrastructure related stocks that we recommended on the Navivest blog yesterday and today, are on the move to the upside today.

With the new administration coming in next Tuesday the 20th, we are looking for an Obama bounce, as he plans to spend billions to boost the economy and create over 4 million jobs by spending on the nation’s infrastructure.

As such, we have been recommending stocks that we feel will benefit from that spending. This week, we recommend traders take long positions in Chicago Bridge and Iron (CBI) $12.38 +$0.20 (1.64%). Caterpillar (CAT) $41.24 +$0.05 (0.22%), Fluor (FLR) $46.52 +$1.40 (3.10%) and Jacobs Engineering (JEC) $487.27 +$2.06 (4.46%).

We did recommend taking early profits, as these are short-term plays, however, even though Fluor and Jacobs Engineering are up over 3%, continue to hold.
