Sector falls; Lucent in winning streak

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) - Telecommunications stocks slid in Tuesday action, as a decline in a key consumer confidence poll caused concern among investors hoping for news of stabilization in the economy.
In recent trading, the American Stock Exchange's Networking Index, which represents large manufacturers, fell 2.1 percent
The Nasdaq Telecommunications Index, which tracks younger equipment manufacturers and phone carriers, slipped 1.7 percent.
And big phone stocks, as measured by Standard & Poor's Communications Services Index, gave up 1.1 percent.
Almost all large equipment makers declined, with Alcatel, Cisco Systems (CSCO: news, chart, profile) and Nortel Networks (NT: news, chart, profile) leading the retreat. Lucent Technologies (LU: news, chart, profile), up 2.3 percent to $7.50, was the lone gainer. It's the eighth gain in the last nine trading sessions. marketwatch.com
