Well T2, I really respect your opinion, as always, but we are down right now, as we have been all day actually, over 5% on our beloved JDSU.... While the NAZ is up .7%.... Any news ? After all the good news today, and the split coming up, I did not expect it... Take care Jean

What happened to the 30 products that they were going to announce? I have seen only one news alert come out on Monday. JDSU is not participating in the move this afternoon? Have a nice day, GGamer

I think much of the selling in the Nasdaq was due to worries over oil prices. It was a catalyst for some to take profits or short the market and that is why I think the market dropped big. A lot of investors acted together. Of course these types of moves are very temporary. Oil prices dropping and we are coming back overall although JDSU has some catching up to do. The next time oil price increases may not work as an effective catalyst for a selloff if no panic is created this time. To me it looks like there was not any panic although I sensed nervousness.
