Anybody has any insights as to why Lucent would forecast a shortfall in earnings for Dec quarter so far in advance? Would this be a low ball estimates tactics similar to what Microsoft has been doing all along? Seems like all along people expect Lucent Cisco and the telco-techs to be Y2k proof, would this shake their confidence in all the telco-techs? I sure hope not. David

< I was surprised that they are predicting lower than expected earnings for the Dec qtr.> Why do you make false statements? As far as your investing prowess goes ALOK, I do not believe a thing you claim to have done! If true you would not have time to post rather you would be busy counting your winnings! Get real Pal before the market wipes your savings account bone dry. LU is going higher, much higher from these levels. Stay short and get burned baby! Respectfully Dana Adams
