szabel: With all due respect to you, exactly what on earth are "YOU" smoking and what on earth, heaven or for that matter hell are you talking about?! JDSU will go down in the coming weeks and perhaps months - no doubt about it. exactly by how much? That would be anyone's guess. If you look at the JDSU stock price ever since it went public in 1994, the all time lowest for the stock has been its IPO price (25 cents per share split adjusted). It grew from 1994 to early 1999 from 25 cents to a little over $18/shr. And then from 1999 till July 2000 it went from $18 to $130-$140/shr. So potentially JDSU can go back to 25 cents per share (or who knows perhaps even lower). But if anyone thinks JDSU has lost its touch for ever, then he/she must be on some drugs from Mars. When the time arrives - which in my view it would be exactly 12 months from now - no sooner and no later - - JDSU will start its path to set new all time highs in a blink of an eye! And if you have been around enough to invest, you should know better that 12 months passes by so fast you wonder how it happened...

Well, judging by the content of your post...I'm not at all offended. What did I say that was wrong? Everyone dropped the ball on reporting the actual number that mattered. JDS did not miss the estimate by 39 cents. Address what I mentioned and I'll give you a deserved reply...a loss of $477M+$500M in non-recurring expenses=$23M in income. Any comments?...sorry, let me be more precise...useful comments??? Tell me who's going to knock off JDS in the components space, or tell me why components will no longer be necessary, or tell me what's so bad about the financial structure of the company, or tell me how the GRP will somehow become a regular feature in JDS' financial statements. I admit the industry sucks at the moment, but it will not forever (or tell me why you think it will). I await silence.
