Will someone with some accounting experience help me out here, they're saying WorldCom is in trouble because of its high debt, granted due to their size they may owe a pile of money but their debt equity ratio is .45 they have close to 3 billion in cash, their interest coverage ratio is close to 4 and the lowest earnings projections for this year I can find is 47 cents with a high close to a dollar. So there may be one million reasons not to buy WorldCom but financially I don't see it what am I missing? Is in a matter of rolling over debt when it comes due and with a possible bond downgrade they may have trouble doing so, please enlighten me.
