Communications gear. Cisco had almost 15% of the worldwide communications equipment market in the most recent quarter. That's up from 10% in the same period a year ago, says Synergy Research Group. Rivals such as Juniper, Ciena and Nortel Networks lost share during that time.... usatoday.com

Politics and the economy go hand in hand. If we attack Iraq, oil may go up. If oil goes up, the economy stalls. If the economy stalls, stock prices will falter and Cisco will also falter. There's your chain of discussion. Besides, alot of the folks on the Cisco thread have been around since 1996 or so and we feel comfortable talking to people we know, versus going to another thread with people we don't know. So if you don't like our discussion, you can always put the more egregious offenders on ignore. Your choice. However, I like discussions on the macro and the micro.
