<<<Nathan: How are you calculating the > 100 p/e? SI shows trailing four q.'s p/e of ~ 53.> Tim, I have seen the PE for LU quoted as high as 285. I am using earnings of 84 cents which is listed on quote systems as my basis for computing > 100. If I am wrong please tell me. I would need to know to recalculate my entry point.>>

Nathan: Click on the Lucent header at the top of this post to take you back to the thread header. Click on "Profile" and you'll see the earnings for the last 4 quarters that give a trailing p/e of ~ 54. If you calc it differently, I'd like to know how you're figuring it.

Apologies if the instructions are too elementary. Since your name indicates "trial member", I'm not sure how familiar you are w/navigating SI. ...Tim
