PF -

It was Sprints announcement that mentioned small business. I thought that was definately part of the WCII target market.

Still after todays action and given that there are over six weeks till the market will begin to recover a week or so prior to the Q3 earnings season, the long bond is over 6.24% and there is a slew of economic news coming at regualr intervals which if it is perceived to be good for the market ( ie more Americans unemployed) will be ignored and the market will tank, medium, and if it is bad for the market ( ie more Americans enjoying jobs) then the market will do its annual August Titanic dive.

Add this to all the uncertainty surrounding telecoms price ruling issues and to put the cream on the cake a full blown price war between T, WCOM and QWST. Prior to all this there was some hope that the stock would grow on the underlying performance and prospects. Now these are no longer valid.

Well poor old WCII has never need a big excuse to tank and now its got a whole parade of them......... good night.

Shame $50s were fun while they lasted.

Best regards,

L

trust most saw the Dow Jones "boys" (WSJ's Larry Bauman and Bob O'Brien) segment on BBFW? WinStar, Teligent and NXLK all highlighted, with WinStar reported as the best value.
