On July 24, Ciena fell 3.03% in regular trading, trading at $391.99/share, with turnover of $62.37 million. The optical communications sector saw its previous session rebound stall as selling pressure resumed broadly across communication equipment stocks.
On the news front, the optical communications sector had rebounded the prior trading day but failed to sustain momentum, with the broader group turning lower again.
