Al:

I am looking it as a barometer for two very important reasons. First, as a leveraged company that must service its debt in good and in bad times, this companies carries a higher degree of risk. Because of this risk, any real or implied threat of a slowdown is reflected in a leveraged company prior to the general market. Second, nextel is leveraged to the building industry. Any downturn in this sector will be immediately reflected in nextel's revenue stream. A combination of these factors is an explanation for nextels inability to regain but a small portion of its loss from 34 to 15. It is also a leading indicator of the overall health of the economy. Expansions rarely continue if the building industry declines.
