How wrong you are! I have held this stock for 3 1/2 years and counting. In addition, I have bought more in littled increments every 6 months or so since I bought my first shares. So am I a short term trader? Nope. You know how many times I made trades for all of 1999? 4 times. 2 times to buy more Cisco, once to buy more Rambus, and once to sell all my Rambus. How many trades have you made? And btw, if you really want to know which company among Cisco, Nortel and Lucent is kicking ass, look at 1) each of their quarterly cash inflows, 2) cash & cash equivalents on hand, and 3) total LT debt. That'll tell you the whole story thus far. I know it's not popular now to determine which company is a cash cow, but it helps keep things in perspective. And Telecomguy, you need perspective.
