From Briefing.com: 8:33AM No big surprises in employment data : The 5K decline in payrolls was about as close to the consensus forecast of unchanged as you'll ever see. The prior month's 43K decline was revised higher to -13K. The Unemployment Rate only ticked up one tenth to 5.7% vs expectations of a two tenth increase. The workweek fell a tenth to 34.1 hours, a bit weaker than the 34.2 consensus. Overall, this report is more of the same: the labor market is flat - net job growth continues to hover around unchanged. 8:57AM Celestica cut to Attractive at Thomas Weisel (CLS) 13.80: Thomas Weisel downgrades to ATTRACTIVE from Buy and eliminates its price target. Despite strong level of operating performance, firm believes CLS remains challenged by the highest level of customer and segment concentration in the EMS top tier. 8:21AM Lucent probe is broader than disclosed -- WSJ (LU) 1.23: The WSJ reports that the SEC's formal investigation into Lucent's accounting and financial-reporting practices is far broader than the company has disclosed, covering possible earnings manipulations dating as far back as the mid-1990s. SEC investigators also are seeking to determine whether board members, including Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill, may have been aware of any accounting violations at the company as they were occurring. 7:37AM Motorola cuts wafer orders at Taiwan Semi (MOT) 9.17: Digitimes.com reports that MOT in early Oct cut orders to TSM by about 4,000 wafers per month, according to equipment suppliers; move brings MOT's 0.13-micron DSP outsourcing to TSM's Fab 6 down from 9k to 5k 8-inch wafers per month, and follows an earlier 4k-wafer cut in its monthly orders to UMC in Sept. 7:33AM Microsoft antitrust decision expected at 4:30 today (MSFT) 53.47: As mentioned yesterday after the close, U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly will issue her decision on what sanctions should be imposed on MSFT at 4:30 PM ET today; the judge will decide whether to accept MSFT's proposed antitrust settlement with the Justice Dept or impose tougher restrictions on the co; also at question is the matter between the nine states that rejected the settlement and want stricter controls over MSFT. finance.yahoo.com^SOXX+ALTR+AMAT+AMD+BRCM+CHPC+CLS+CSCO+INTC+KLAC+LLTC+LSCC+LSI+LU+MOT+MSFT+MU+MXIM+NSM+NVLS+OIIM+TER+TXN+UMC+VSH+XLNX+^VIX+^IXIC+^SPX+SMH&d=t Better than expected unemployment numbers.
