FWIW, there's a lot of negative sentiment w.r.t. SUNW right now -- probably more than I've ever seen before. That's not to say it can't go lower. I'm curious what the short interest numbers will say -- shouldn't they be out soon?

JMHO.

The good news about SUNW in the $3 range is that, although this stock is off about $60 from its all time high, it's not going to drop any more than $4 from these prices.

So any potential losses in SUNW are capped at only $4 a share, a fact which should give any prospective investor some peace of mind.

Dear KG: You face the same dilemna we all do. A local radio stock adviser says JDSU has a tremendous amount of debt and is a canditate to fail. He thinks SUNW is solvent and will ultimately do well BUT says the whole tech group is going to take a year or two of STRONG economic recovery to make a sustained upward motion. All I can say is if you need the money within the next 5 years put it either in the bank or in your mattress (with rates such as they are makes little difference), if you have a LONG time horizon beyond 5 years then at these prices SUNW looks to be a pretty good bet to me.

I don't see how Sun can fall below $3 in the near term considering their cash and value. Of course, it could get down there if the company fails to perform over the next few years. The telecom stocks are much more tricky, similar to what railroads used to be. I'm sure someone is going to become extremely wealthy by taking over these companies, but they may go through bankruptcy first.
