Volume still very low, so the buyers still haven't been heard from.

Today feels like all the procrastinators finally making their decisions on tax issues........
and selling!


We'll know at the close who will carry us into 2001 --- bulls or bears.

SDLI's been up all day, so whatever's going out of JDSU is most likely going there.

You have to love the Pirelli comment about their Corning deal:
interactive.wsj.com@6.cgi?mfmuse/text/autowire/data/DI-CO-20001229-001369.djml/&d2hconverter=display-d2h&NVP=&template=atlas-srch-searchrecent-nf.tmpl&form=atlas-srch-searchrecent-nf.html&from-and=AND&to-and=AND&sort=Article-Doc-Date+desc&qand=&bool_query=fiber+optics&dbname=%26name1%3Ddbname%26name2%3Ddbname%26name3%3Ddbname%26period%3D%3A720&location=article&HI=

Pirelli earlier this month called the completion of the Corning deal "the crowning piece" of the year, adding that it expects unprecedented results in 2000.

For those who missed it:

And, more recently, PR indicating implications:

Today's press had this comment:
The Italian company said earlier this month that it is witnessing an explosion in demand for its telecommunications-related products, especially in the North American market, as phone companies and Internet-service providers scramble to expand their transmission capacity.

Pirelli's communications unit "accounts for 20% of the U.S. market for optic fibers and cable."

I agree Q1 guidance will be critical to the entire communications sector.
