<<I don't think anyone will want JDSU, I think the larger firms will just slowly push them aside. >>

At $1.90 a share....arent they still valued at over $2billion dollars?? And didnt they just have one of the largest losses reported...ever??

Sheez, maybe people pile back into the jdsu's because they are familiar with them...but a money losing company at $1.90 a share, valued at over $2billion??? I have plenty of small companies with teeny floats, no debt, PROFITABLE, with continued growing revenues...valued at peanuts.....

did you hear that SUNW will be forced to writeoff humongo goodwill costs if their stock doesnt recover to $20-30 by December?

this is sad
SUNW will be sub-$1 soon

the list of stocks grows for sub-$10 to my amazement
last March2001, I proposed a list
now about 75% of them are on it

it might be time to propose a list of sub-$1 stocks
LU, ERICY, JDSU, SUNW will head the list
maybe SEBL also
the IT capex extinction now is spreading to software
first hardware, then software

this is sad
prepare for a wicked wicked storm when the USdollar goes below 104
now at 107 and languishing in poor fundamentals
below 104 sets off all the major loud alarms
absolutely unavoidable

DUH,

Senate hears plea for broadband subsidy

WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- It will take a hefty government subsidy and an industry shakeout to bring about widespread use of fast, wireless Internet connections, experts told a Senate committee Tuesday.



"This is a time when the government can play a critical role," said Reed Hundt, former chairman of the Federal Communications Commission and one of several witnesses before the Senate Commerce Committee.

Wide implementation of wireless broadband technology at a reasonable price could help the industry out of its slump, panelists said, after 500,000 layoffs in recent years and the loss of $2 trillion in market value.

Hundt said a vast broadband network linking all American households and businesses needs to be in place for the industry to remain competitive with overseas rivals. He said that less than 15 percent of American households and small businesses subscribe to broadband service, compared with more than 40 percent of Korean households/
