WorldCom earned $729 million, or 25 cents a diluted share, from operations in the quarter, excluding charges for previously announced staff cuts. That's in line with forecasts of analysts surveyed by earnings tracker First Call, but down from $1.2 billion, or 44 cents a share, earned on the same basis in the year-earlier quarter.

Regarding this whole Worldcom downturn - i'm not sure if this is possible or not, if I were a shareholder, I would consider filing a class-action suit against either the EU or the FCC on behalf of Worldcom shareholders. It's pretty clear to me that because Worldcom was unable to complete their deal with Sprint due solely to regulatory concerns (ie out of their hands), they were in turn unable to get the wireless business that would allow them to have set the foundation for the future. Now all they have is a LD, Internet, and pager business that really isn't quite scalable, and the negativity finally is showing. Because of all of this, Worldcom has been unable to do anything most of the year. And if I'm a shareholder, the reason I've lost money is not because of Worldcom, but because of the EU and FCC. |

When federal regulators downed Worldcom's proposed takeover of Sprint, CEO Bernard J. Ebbers blasted the parties involved (e.g., Janet Reno and Joel Klein). Ebbers may have been a little too aggressive in his response, but he also may have had a valid point. (source: Upside.com) http://www.upside.com/Opinion/39a428500.html |

Telecom will never be the same. Deregulation has dramatically reshaped the world's communication networks. First, national phone companies were suddenly challenged by companies such as Sprint and WorldCom. Second, thousands of upstart Internet, wireless and networking firms are now taking aim at the former state monopolies.
