Not much news, so trading continued to be driven by takeover speculation... Ascend (ASND) surged 2 5/8 on talk that Lucent (LU) is lurking in the wings... Seems too easy... When was last time everyone called a takeover as much as a year in advance... No doubt Lucent will hit acquisition trail next month, just have to question whether they will want to take on a major player like ASND or follow the Cisco lead and gobble up a number of technologically compatible small/private companies... Other takeover targets, 3Com (COMS) and Fore Systems (FORE) ended day slightly lower.
