If you're a retail investor who has a few bones to pick with John Roth
about his ability to manage his business, you'd better get in line. The
phones at Nortel probably started lighting up within moments of the
announcement about slower growth, and the list of aggrieved investors
and others is likely to be long. Up near the top would be JDS Uniphase,
which just a week ago took $2-billion in Nortel stock in return for a plant
in Zurich, Switzerland — those shares are now worth 35 per cent less.

From the 10K of JDSU 2/13/01

<iu>On February 13, 2001, the Company completed the sale of its Zurich, Switzerland subsidiary to Nortel Networks ("Nortel") for 65.7 million shares of Nortel common stock valued at $2.1 billion, as well as up to an additional $500 million in Nortel common stock payable to the extent Nortel purchases do not meet certain levels under new and existing programs through December 31, 2003. The Company expects to record a gain estimated at $1.9 billion in the quarter ended March 31, 2001.

The gain maybe something like 1.3B instead now. The $31.56 was the average price of NT when doing the math.
