JDS Uniphase Corp (NASDAQ:JDSU)

ROCKET LAUNCHERS

JDSU is sitting on a gold mine as the majority of all telecoms are in an "arms race" this year. Even if JDSU decides to screw up royally, they will still turn a nice profit.

Near-term Rich r3.72 r6.75

JDSU should outperform simply due to the fact that they are undervalued at the moment and telcos have finally announced a spending program that enhances jdsu chances to improve their maker lead and sales performance.

Their testing equipment and software is key to telcos in maintaining their networks and improving customers service. The ever growing smartphone and tablet market more or less ensures jdsu growth over the next few years.

340. JDS Uniphase Corp. (NASDAQ: JDSU) has the short sellers in full retreat! Run for the hills my boys! They cracked the wip at 4pm last night and sent the stock up 5%+ after a day of 3%+. What's it worth? They beat earnings estimates by 50%. Price targets were raised, silly analysts. These are the guys that were dropping them in August. Are we predicting the current price plus 20% instead of using financial models Stifel Nicolaus? Looks like it. This company was doing really well before those darn floods. I am a fan of long term earnings and short termers appear to have gotten a little carried away. I vote they bounce back. Target: $14-$19. Outperform.

I'm a long-term bull on JDSU and many other high-speed networking stocks. The high backward-looking P/E ratio notwithstanding, I wouldn't mind picking up a few shares here. It's a buy, but not a back-up-the-truck slam dunk.

Streaming video, mobile, cloud etc.. It will force the telecom world to spend more in infrastructure. JDSU is positioned to take advantage of it. In addition, gesture is going to be one of the UI in the coming years for tv etc. JDSU has a hand in that also.

near 52-week low. Growth of internet and iCloud should drive growth of telecom once economy settles.

company has solved a number of problems-is a leader in the industry--and this industry, as reviewed by sophisticated analysts- is poised for future growth-JDSU wil be a be leading player in this space

Dave Sauberman

The analysts put a strong buy on JDSU when it was at $21 and dropped all the way down to the mid $15s. They can't seem to get over the huge losses they cost people years back. At the slightest sign of trouble the stock price tanks. The short sellers had a hay day the last few months on this one.

If they continue with the layoffs of their knowledgebase every half, they will be even less competitive than they are now.

Technical Pullback Likely

bandwidth build up

Has the technology that supports cutting edge growth in telecom

Constant internet traffic growth.

JDSU crashed with the bursting of the Internet bubble in 2001-2002, but managed to hang on, and continue developing optical products necessary for the continuing buildout of the internet infrastructure.
Optical is the way to go, being more secure, robust, and higher bandwidth than any RFI-based technologies. They had their trial by fire, survived it, and are now poised for remarkable growth in the next buildout and upgrade wave.
