ian – i recommend staying out of all stocks in this macro environment. Historically, P/E ratios have to fall to 10 for the overall market before stocks begin recovering. Right now we are still around 18-20. There will be many downward revisions of earnings in the next few weeks as companies report as stock prices fall further. GE's report on Friday was only the beginning.

Good luck with your trading.

Psych – I'm not jamezzz or any of the others you mention so take your broad painting brush elsewehre.

What I said also applies to others in the industry. I think the company in the MOST trouble is Alcatel/Lucent from an overhead to revenue per head standpoint. We're in a shrinking global economy now and I would expect that price pressures will increase across the board.

Even if NT becomes cost competitive today, they have major sales strategy issues which will not help in their growth. Remember, Z just hired a Sales EVP to structure the sales team, almost two years late after wasting lots of resources on colour belts. NT is not only all over the place for products, but also all over the place in their sales strategy. Every sales region have their own plan which clearly never worked.

All the R&D restructuring they announced last week means nothing unless the sales team is not surgically restructured.

observer-aka – jamezzzz- aka -protohysterical-if you want to look credible with your claims ,then at least include others like ALU,MOT,ERIC,Nokia/Siemens in your assumption about Huawei and ZTE bringing price competitiveness to the point where it's not just Nortel that would feel pressure from these Asian box makers.
