(CIEN) - Shares of Ciena Corporations have been taking a hit on Wednesday’s trading session after a Credit Suisse (CS) analyst downgraded the stock to an “underperform” from “neutral.”Not quite sure if they are correct with this analyses, because the company is making a lot of improvements in its organization and the infrastructure spending is not so bad at all, however it’s a fact there is some clear evidences of slowing in network spending but is not a dramatical slowing like many have predicted. On 6th of January Barclays Capital Equal made exactly the reversal upgrading the stock to an “Overweight” from “Equal Weight”. Who is right ? Well, I would prefer follow Barclays advise because over the recent times that have outperformance the market with good bets everytime they recommends small caps.!!! I continue to have a favorable longer-term view of the company and I believe the stock should provide steady, above-market returns over the long run. Technically the stock is trading in a short-uptrend channel. Channel support and resistance have been tested successfully on numerous occasions, making this particular uptrend channel very valid from a technical perspective. At the moment, CIEN is trading near the bottom of the channel, but not close enough to channel support to warrant an upside movement in this market environment. I do not recommend a position at the moment, but will watch price action carefully for moves to uptrend channel support or resistance.
