Arista Networks (ANET-N)

Trading ~37x forward PE, for 15% EPS growth. Below 200-day MA, but so is much of the market. Customer concentration risk; any capex pullback by hyperscalers can significantly impact results. Be careful. Faces strong competition.

Buy at these levels. Upstream of the hyperscalers like META, MSFT and AMZN. Came off with concerns on hyperscalers' AI spending and ROI. Still in early innings, demand will come back, and this name will grow quickly.

Owns many shares. He targets $138.50, so now is a great buying opportunity. Buy a third here, another at $78, then at $73. They supply ever-better switches and routers to the cloud stack.

Pendulum swings between hardware and software. With the infrastructure buildout for AI, it's also spilling over into the routers and switches from a name like this. Product not unique, but management makes the company stand out. 12-month price target of $123.

They lead in cloud network solutions, sales +20%, EPS +31%. Innovation in AI will only lift this stock.

It reports next week. It needs 25% revenue growth. They are still part of the AI networking build-out and likes their correction after DeepSeek. It's now in a good place. Adequate earnings should see a positive response.

It trades in classic stair-step fashion. Are riding the data centre story. Shares are up 52% in the last 6 months.

It's fairly priced now. They're Cisco's main competitor. Have done very well. Take profits now, then re-enter around $245, then $225 (note: these values don't reflect the recent stock split). January will be a volatile month; Jan. 20 will be inauguration day in Washington.

Cloud-networking solutions, particularly on switching and routers. Hardware that all the hyperscalers and data centres need. 12-month price target of $462. Buy in thirds here around $375, $355, and $335. No dividend.

Pretty fully priced, so don't buy now. Try around $328, and again around $311-12.

Turned over recently because CSCO reported a gain in market share. Senior management actually came from Cisco. Price targets range from $305-325. Fully priced right now. Hold, and use additional funds to buy some CSCO instead.

Cloud spending hasn't slowed at all. They have strong operating leverage. Sales were up 21% and EPS 48%. This keeps going up.

Very strong stock performance. Continues to beat earnings and sales expectations. Competition with Microsoft and Amazon. Demand for products very high. Excellent business that is good for long term investors. Very high margins. 

Has owned this for 3 years for the cloud infrastructure AI networking build-out, which explains why it's up 25% in 3 months.

Network equipment provider to data centres. One of the best. Loved by MSFT and META. Structural advantage by virtue of what it does. Modulating services to be more accessible to smaller customers. Very high profit margins, excellent free cashflow, increasing market share. No dividend.
