The biggest struggle will be keeping its debt out of junk bond status. (source: Red Herring) http://redherring.com/index.asp?layout=story&channel=20000002&doc_id=580018658 |

The tortuous road that Agere Systems (a spinoff of Lucent) has been following toward a public stock offering took a turn toward a less-affluent neighborhood. The company said in its latest regulatory filings that it will lower the terms of its IPO to 600 million shares priced between $6 and $7 a share. At the midpoint of that price range, Agere will raise $3.9 billion, sharply lower than the $6.5 billion it was hoping to raise. (source: CNET) http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1004-200-5218775.html |

This multipart piece by Jim Cramer looks at two different types of market declines: secular and cyclical. A cyclical decline is usually an inventory decline, while a secular decline is something longer-lasting that doesn't reverse. Cramer believes that the latter is currently happening in today's market, especially with regards to Lucent, Cisco, and Nortel Networks.

Just when you thought things at Lucent Technologies couldn't get worse, they have. Far worse. How bad? After seeing debt ratings lowered to BBB-, one notch above "junk" status, company executives are scrambling to restructure a balance sheet that is rapidly deteriorating. On Thursday, $4.5 billion of the company's $6.5 billion in lines of credit was set to expire. The apparent solution to relieve Lucent's debt load: to sell its most prized assets, at any cost.
