It could be wise to decipher that. b/c nobody, except narrow group of people knows exactly what strategic option NN will chose, if NN will merge, for what price. Pepole do not know exactly how good new products are, how many new contracts they have etc. Good look in your search for the answer. Zbyslaw

Doug:Re:" Where did LU's lost earnings go since they haveÿ not been given to anyone else?ÿ " This is what my homegrown grapevine tells me they went to: They went nowhere. That is true. I think because after the MCI/LU debacle/disaster/catastrophe the telcos are frozen stiff: -They will not touch LU/ASND ATMs with a 50 foot pole. -CSCO has no core ATM to give them -NT has no core ATM to write home about. -they'd heard something in the grapevine aboutÿ ÿ"theÿ FCC wanting us tobuy this ATM stuff" ÿÿ so they are sittingÿ and waiting; no ordering. -looking at NN's gear,ÿ " weÿ heard about the new 50/450 butÿ ÿÿ not approved yet/still in trials; then can we depend on NN ÿÿÿ to execute? Let's wait ". - " all this new photonic stuff from LU or anyone else is stillÿ in the early mode. ÿ We cannot build a network instantly on it.We'll wait ". So everybody in Telco, after the FCC change and NN trnsition phase isÿ ...... sitting, and...waiting.....no ordering... They are now watching the ALA/NN mating dance...... .....Will she..won't she....will she.....won't she........ I am 90% certain that they will mate. Stick around for the finale, :-) TA Message #17097 from Doug at Feb 16 2000 1:41PM Z.O: When LU tanked, I stated that the growth of earnings in the Telecom sector had peaked. In fact, no one was able to pick up the $1b slack that was a shortfall in LU's revenue. LU's earnings for the next Q have been reduced to 22c; but those lost earnings have not been given to anyone else. Where did they go.? The market is subject to many forces. Take over spec has assisted NN in reaching this valuation. Most will agree that there is some correlation between the take over noise and price. Lately,the take over noise has not been able to drive the price any higher. It could be wise to decipher that.

Doug, while you and LARRY are worrying and worrying, don't forget to look at the NN tape. We may be breaking out again and attacking the $36 price. Considering that this is happening while the Dow is tanking for the 50th time and Naz is so so, this looks very promising technically. Especially since it is happening on low volume. No sell off today. Just a pull back and now NN is sprinting again. How long before it falls Ponder....ponder......ponder.......... :-) TA
