Robert McWhirterNortel ASNTEL.TODON'T BUYDec 09, 2004
From a techno analysis view it has given an intermediate BUY signal when the stock was around $4.15. It is expected to announce revise, revise, revise earnings.
If you own the stock, you are playing that there is some value in the assets they own. The company is not a going concern. Have a huge deficit hole in their pension plan. Individual parts of the company may be better being sold off.
Has about $4 per share in cash. They are thinking of selling an asset that would raise about another $1 billion, which would add another $2 per share in cash. However, the overall quality of the balance sheet is as bad as he has ever seen it. Speculative.
