Tuesday, July 17, 2012, 7:03 PM ETAlcatel-Lucent's (ALU -19%) and ZTE's (ZTCOY.PK) warnings (I, II) are proof investors can't count on mobile data growth to give a big lift to capex, says Tero Kuittinen. Especially not when much of the spending comes from Euro carriers struggling with weak sales and huge debt loads at a time when local credit markets are in turmoil. In Alcatel and ZTE's cases, China isn't of much help either. Rival Ericsson (ERIC -0.8%) has relatively moderate Chinese exposure.

"if losers like ALU and ZTE are under-performing, who do you think is picking up the business? Does anyone seriously think telecom carrier spending is declining overall?"
Whether I'm a declared ERIC fanboy or not - think about it !
