Bell Atlantic: caveat emptor.

If I recall correctly, Bell Atlantic inked some huge deal with Ciena that was split with LU. BA did not explain how the contract was split, and LU seemed a lot happier with the contract than Ciena was. I don't know whether the BA deal has panned out; does anyone have more recent information?

"because of the merger the price had been severely beaten, in fact without any merger implications ciena even with the lost contracts should be at around 30-40$."

Interesting way of looking at it....usually the company being acquired rises in price....are you saying Ciena's association w/Tellabs during that time dragged Ciena down???????????????
