I am hurting brother, really hurting. And to make the pain even worse is that I was trying to sell all of my LU shares last Friday when it was above 70, but I was out of town, and in bwteen flights, well my limit order of 75 was never hit, and the rest is history. This does suck, at least short term.

My buy at 62 was just hit. Do you have any Preparation-H that I can borrow?

Looks like LU is going through another meltdown. Is it because market realized that the huge run up from the Enterprise spin-off didn't actually change anything for LU (in fact it may be weakening LU's position if NT's strategy of integrating Enterprise router technology into the public network infrastructure). Or is it because of the recent deals (Xros, Coretek) which will weaken LU's advantages in those optics niche? Or is it because of further leakages that indicate more market share erosion problems at LU as NT continues to "drive a truck" through their market share -- especially in the key Optics space? Probably combination of all three I suspect?
