Ciena Corporation CIEN was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 10% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. The stock picked up sharply from the near-flat trend of $22.25 to $23.70 in the past one month time frame.
