VAVOOM! Nice jump today.

Shares always vault upwards following Jack Grubman's comments. He's a longtime telecom industry analyst with Gilder's viewpoint on the future of the industry(it helps that he's in WCOM's corner!!)

NEW YORK, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Salomon Smith Barney said Tuesday that analyst Jack Grubman raised his price target on MCI WorldCom Inc and reiterated a buy rating on the stock.

-- Target raised to $100 a share from $80.

-- ''We believe WCOM with top-line growth of 16-17 percent from 1999 through 2004 and EPS growth of 28 percent from 1999-2004 is generally growing faster than its S&P 500 peers,'' Grubman said in a note.

-- Shares rose 3-1/2 to 73-3/8.
