I hope it's profit taking. I haven't heard any negative news. I don't think winning a 500 Million dollar contract is bad news. I did receive my quarterly statement with dividends, put it right back into the stock. Also have you all seen the news on the new Lucent Netcare facility in St. Petersburg Florida. 4netcare.com

First, IMO, that 500 million contract they announced today was already priced into the stock. As for the 1 point loss, on bad days for the general tech stock sector, LU usually benefits, as money comes out of some of the other names and into LU because of all the strong expectations Wall Street has on this stock. Today, however, techs were generally strong, so a bit of money came out of LU and went into some of the other names that haven't done as well as LU has in recent months. Nothing to worry about though, I expect we will resume the uptrend tomorrow. Regards, Serry Habash
