Techs may be down in the short run, but the future economy depends tremendously on technology. I feel that this quarter will be the nadir for them. Market mentality will swing back by the late spring as Dow stocks are boring to the majority of former Nasdaq investors. Don't you think next year's earnings will easily beat the last and future two quarters? I remember when the market mavens beat down the likes of Intel and Texas Instrument only to see them skyrocket a year layer. Where there is earning momentum, there will be stock buying. Techs are cyclical and we're in the lowest point in the parabola.

(only Mr Market knows for sure, and Jenna ) JDS Uniphase sees weaker Q3, 2002 sales $6 billion TORONTO, Feb 13 (Reuters) - JDS Uniphase <JDU.TO> <JDSU.O>, the world's top supplier of fiber-optic components, lowered its third-quarter earnings guidance slightly on Tuesday but said 2002 revenues should fall in the range of $6 billion. The company warned that earnings for the third quarter would fall short of Wall Street expectations by some 19 percent, reflecting the weakening economy and its merger with SDL Inc., which was completed on Tuesday. The company expects to post sales of about $1 billion in the quarter -- a number in line with consensus forecasts -- but warned of "continued uncertainty" in capital spending plans by telecommunications carriers and customer inventory adjustments. And while "it's still too early" to predict earnings for 2002 with a high level of confidence, sales should fall in the range of $6 billion, said JDS Uniphase chief financial officer Tony Miller in a conference call with analysts. "At the end of our second quarter we said the near term prospects were affected by uncertain capital spending. These conditions remain as they were, or may have become somewhat less favorable," said Miller. JDS Uniphase <SDLI.O>, said it would post earnings per share of 17 cents for the quarter ending March 31. Analysts on average had forecast earnings of 21 cents a share, according to First Call/Thomson Financial. The company said it is experiencing "a lower level of near-term sales visibility" than it has in recent quarters.
