Whenever one buys or sells a house, the first thing one does it run the comps. Same thing with stocks.

For those who are interested, here are some comps. Figures are Price/2000E Revenues, per DBAB May 2000 Optical Networking report.

Avanex........................80X
Ciena.........................16X
Corning........................7X
E-Tek Dynamics................31X
JDS Uniphase..................33X
SDL Inc.......................35X
Sycamore Networks.............63X

Draw you own conclusions and go from there.
