To all...in my opinion a raise in fed fund rates has far less effect on the new age economy companies (i.e. JDSU) and a much stronger effect on older traditional smoke-stack style industries like autos, transportation and others. Thus if AG decides to make a move, the deleterious effect will have a limited impact on JDSU short term. We must also remember that currently JDSU is in a position where they are supplying a industry that is capacity and supply constrained. Regards Glenn

t2, I agree that bond yields, imo, are going to start dropping, as 'month by month' economic data is released during the 1st quarter. Also, imo, 'interest rate hikes' are not going to affect the market, in the long haul, unless the 'prime rate' reaches 10% (this is one thing history shows -- according to a study I did a couple years back). Wishing everyone well, dc
