      Nortel’s Market Cap Sinks Below $1-billion

      By Mark Evans | October 3, 2008

      Nortel shares slipped to $2.01 earlier this afternoon, giving the company a market cap of less than $1-billion ($997.7-million to be exact).

      To be things in contrast, Nortel had a market cap of $398-billion at the height of the telecom boom in September, 2000.

      Question: Is Nortel ripe for the picking? Putting aside the $4.5-billion of debt and the money-losing businesses, does it make sense for someone to snap up Nortel given its declining value?
