Up 66% in Q1 and one of the best performers on the S&P. It'll keep rising as long as the data centre build happens.

(A Top Pick Jul 28/22, Down 17.7%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with CIEN has triggered its stop at $42.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  This will result in a net investment loss of 13%, when combined with our previous entry recommendation.

TOP PICK

Ciena(CIEN)

Jul 28, 2022
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate CIEN, a 5G, router, and switches infrastructure company as a TOP PICK. No doubt supply chain delays, including sourcing out of China has been an issue, but the company has $4 billion in order backlogs. The company trades at 15x next year's earnings compared to peers at 34x. We recommend trailing up the stop loss (from $35) to $42, looking to achieve $72.50 -- upside potential over 42%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $72.35)

Ciena(CIEN)

Jun 28, 2022
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly With an order backlog reaching $4 billion, CIEN, a 5G, router, and switches infrastructure company is a TOP PICK. No doubt supply chain delays, including sourcing out of China has been an issue, but as things return to normal growth will rebound. The company trades at 17x earnings compared to peers at 34x. Management has revised down their guidance, so forward expectations will be tempered. We recommend setting a stop loss at $35, looking to achieve $74 -- upside potential over 57%.

TOP PICK

Ciena(CIEN)

May 04, 2021
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly CIEN is an internet network solutions company that is well poised for the growth in 5G. Recently reported earnings of $0.52 per share beat analyst expectations by 15%. Less than 2/3 of revenue is derived in North America, providing global diversification. The company holds $1.3 billion in cash. Announcements by the Biden Administration to strengthen internet infrastructure will keep demand for their 5G applications growing. We would buy this with a stop loss at $39, looking to achieve $60 -- upside potential over 19%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $59.56)

COMMENT

Ciena(CIEN)

May 08, 2015

At the present time, this is trading up at quite an astonishing price to book level. In his FMV view, it is about 25% overvalued. There hasn’t been a lot of growth in the BV for some period of time. However, earnings have been notching up nicely. This is what he would call speculatively priced.
