BEA Systems plunges, growth seen slowing

NEW YORK, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Shares of corporate software maker BEA Systems Inc. (Nasdaq:BEAS - news) plundged on Friday after it warned that weak Asian markets and a slump in capital spending will curb future profits and slow revenue growth.

BEA shares fell 49 percent, or 13, to 13-3/8, despite its report late Thursday that third quarter profits of $0.07 a share beat Wall Street consensus estimates by $0.01 a share.

It was by far the most active issue in Nasdaq trade, with more than 10 million shares trading hands.
