RE: earnings

Longhaul,

I don't think people have priced in a positive quarter, but I do think the street is starting to see the company turn the corner - ie, diversified revenue globally and by technology. I think they've started to take notice with the NTT win, but in no way do I think most investors think they are going to have positive net income.

If 7 analysts are forecasting a loss, I would be happy with beating that estimate by 1 cent. If it is more, great, but I can't see, at less than $2.00, SVC having a "priced in" or expected positive quarter. It would be much higher...

We'll see, but the market is still fairly conservative with its approach to SVC.

Just my 2cents..
