Post says rival wins contract

Newbridge Networks Corporation NNC
Shares issued 173,670,862 Mar 19 close $38.85
Fri 20 Mar 98 In the News
The Financial Post reports in its Friday edition that shares of Newbridge
Networks fell on Thursday on news it did not win a supply contract with
Deutsche Telekom AG. Reporter Jill Vardy says, however, that the stock
partly recovered as word got out the deal was not one the company or its
analysts consider key to the future of its asynchronous transfer mode
business. The contract, which went to competitor Fore Systems, was
described by Newbridge as a "recycled reseller agreement" that allows
Deutsche Telekom to sell Fore's ATM switch to its customers. The German
company has a similar deal with Northern Telecom. It was not one of several
major ATM contracts due to be awarded by Deutsche Telekom, Cable & Wireless
PLC and other major telecommunications companies in the months to come.
Still, it rattled markets, which drove Newbridge stock down in Toronto and
New York. The shares fell sharply but recovered toward the end of the day,
to close at $38.85, down $2 in Toronto.

Claude, no trading in NN for the past 1 hour!!! I think everybody is watching !! The Messrs Woo and Stewart were hoping that NN would drop so that their clients who missed it could buy it back IMO. It ain't happening looks like. Old NN fans are holding on to their shares.
I think Institutions will start buying it back slowly so as not to agitate the price and cause people to stampede in it again nd raise the price again; but if nobody sells, volume will be low,
