Lucent just inked a huge deal with Sprint's wireless division to provide equipment for next-gen high speed data networks.

Is it just me or most people assume that if a company's stock is high then it must be doing well? And if the stock is low then the company is not turning in any profit?

Yea, well... I worked for them as a contractor. They have major management problems. I wouldn't wipe my a$$ with their stock simply because I know how things are done in that company.

if you think they can somehow survive and become profitable again it sure is. 13 straight quarterly losses or something like that, HUGE losses too (billions or something like that).
