CIEN Stock Recent News

Ciena is well-positioned in AI-driven network infrastructure, with strong technology and first-mover advantage, but faces stagnant revenue and shrinking margins. Blue Planet's rapid growth is promising, yet its revenue contribution remains small; overall financials show declining cash flow and rising leverage.
