Technology Stocks : Lucent Technologies (LU) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

If you are a LU bull, you may be emotionally attached to the stock. To test this, substitute 'NT' for 'LU' (NT bulls can do the opposite). How do you feel about the question 'Is NT a candidate for bankruptcy'? The answer may be a way of looking at LU without the emotion. NT and LU are tied and bound together, at least for the moment.

I should say 'optimist' instead of 'bull'...

Jesica, RE: That is assuming that they do this bad, which they WILL NOT.

Good point.

Things have gotten progressively worse for LU for 3 years now. It would be folly to think that all of a sudden things would stop getting worse and they would maintain the status quo.

Jesica,
my point is that you are wrong about how a stock trades after the reverse split.
