Orckit is down sharply today on rumors that KDDI in Japan (ORCT sole current customer) will be scaling back orders.

One customer company? Very risky, IMHO, no wonder this one is so volatile....

If it drops again tomorrow I have a bid at $12, but will not be shy to jump back in higher if it seems to have been a false alarm As far as I know Corrigent (their main subsidiary) does not depend only on KKDI. Furthermore, as the deployment of optical communications in metros gets on, Corrigent should get a very healthy chunk of the business.

I have some very painful position from $22. Since the beginning of the month, I have accumulated a trading cushion of about $6, if it does not bounce back to the $24/8 area, well, that cushion will not be enough....I think that they will surprise and come up with about $.25/share, and frankly, for a company in the focus of the optical communication space and quite good at it, a market cap of less than $200 MM is cheap, next year, they have a shot at $1.25 to $1.50 per share. Dirt cheap here, one reason I kep adding all day and at one point I had seven position (two were taken off doe some mild profits, not sufficient, however to relieve the pain.
