Happy days are here again in the telecom capex market, right? After all, companies like Juniper (Nasdaq:JNPR), Ciena (Nasdaq:CIEN), and Finisar (Nasdaq:FNSR) have seen their stocks shoot up over the last three months, and even Alcatel-Lucent (NYSE:ALU) is looking viable again. Certainly if Alcatel looks like it could make it, the market must be improving, right?

Well, yes and no. Spending is still lumpy and idiosyncratic, and there are gaps between what companies are saying about orders (and what analysts/investors are projecting for 2013/2014) and what's actually happening in the here and now. And that's where JDSU's (Nasdaq:JDSU) earnings come into play – JDSU didn't have a bad quarter and management sounds optimistic about the recovery, but the actual business still needs time to come around. Of course, those investors who think they can just wait until they see the recovery in the financials before they buy the shares may well find that most of the gains have already gone to others by then.
