Alcatel-Lucent reported it will post a second quarter operation loss due to slowing demand. The company expects the second half of the year to improve but cited "year-to-date performance and the difficult macro-economic environment" as reasons they will not make their operating margin for the year.
"Alcatel-Lucent's comment about the revenue mix, the more concerning part of the announcement, is likely to weigh most" on Ericsson, Ciena and Juniper, said Stuart Jeffrey, an analyst at Nomura, in a recent note.
