Cisco (CSCO-Q) has garnered attention as a notable player in the tech sector, especially benefiting from increased demand for data center solutions and AI-enhanced services. Recent earnings surpassed expectations, with analysts projecting continued revenue growth, although there are concerns regarding high market expectations and competition. The stock is up significantly this year, suggesting strong market sentiment; however, technical analysis reveals a potential need for a pullback. Experts highlight Cisco’s historical ability to allocate capital effectively through dividends and stock buybacks, which bolsters its profile as a stable investment as it navigates a competitive landscape. While some analysts express caution regarding its growth potential compared to peers like Arista Networks, many believe Cisco's entrenched position in IT infrastructure and cybersecurity could sustain its upward trajectory.

ANET

TOP PICK

They are the leader in end to end IT security. There has been a selloff because of a weaker economy. They will raise their dividend double digits until the cows come home. (Analysts’ price target is $51.43)

COMMENT

Problem is all the big techs had a big run. Long-term trajectory is up and to the right. Dividend should slowly grow. A better entry point would make this a core holding. Challenge is they need a new product as a catalyst.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Fantastic company. Couple of disappointing quarters. Huge amount of free cashflow. Buy on weakness.

TOP PICK

Model price is $65 or 54% upside. (Analysts’ price target is $51.43)

TOP PICK

It's had a tough time, but new management have turned this from a stodgy company selling old technology to one that's poised to take advantage of the 5G revolution. It trades at 14x earnings. Buy and be patient. (Analysts’ price target is $51.43)

HOLD

He has a 1.8% position in his portfolio. They are skewed to the 5G movement. They have tried to do what MSFT did, ramping up software and cyber-security, but have not been as successful.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 31/19, Up 1%) They will continue giving you 10% dividend growth per year. He owned it for a decade. They are shareholder friendly and do share buy backs.

BUY

Take profits from Microsoft and buy Cisco? He has in the past, so it's not a bad idea to pare it down a bit. He also owns Cisco and sees nothing wrong with this strategy.

DON'T BUY

They're transitioning from computer hardware to services with a recurring revenue stream model. Has never owned this or hardware stocks. True, they lead in networking, but are losing market share. Their transition will take time.

TOP PICK

He calls this old tech. They have done exceptionally well and has a model price of $70.00. Yield 2.96% (Analysts’ price target is $51.26)

BUY

It is a secular growth trend. It had been doing very well until two quarters ago. It is balancing now. They arrested the loss of business to another cloud provider. It is a core holding for her. (Analysts’ price target is $51.00)

WEAK BUY

A cheap stock. They control the router market and have made massive acquisitions in recent years--two good things they do. But growth is slowing. They create lots of free cash flow and will raise their dividend. But MSFT offers better growth; CSCO will be a modest grower. Overall, fine.

DON'T BUY

Has performed weakly next to Microsoft and other peers. It's a staid, mature tech company that lacks the appeal of its peers. Look at it if it breaks above $50. Otherwise, don't buy.

HOLD

He owns this. The company has fallen on harder times as buyers have slowed on hardware sales. They will be active in 5G, which should be positive longer term. He feels the company has redefined itself from being known for routers into much more. He will continue to hold it.

BUY

Fantastic entry point now for a great tech company. Growth and dividend growth are here. He also owns Microsoft, well-positioned and will grow, but not cheap now.
