With shares trading near multi-decade highs and up roughly 37% over the past year, expectations are constructive — but the bar is no longer low. <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/cisco-systems-earnings-preview-expect-124121604.html" target='__blank'>Consensus estimates</a> call for adjusted EPS of $1.02 on revenue of approximately $15.1–$15.12 billion. That would represent roughly 8% year-over-year growth on both the top and bottom lines. Company guidance for the quarter was revenue of $15.0–$15.2 billion and EPS of $1.01–$1.03, meaning expectations sit squarely in the middle of management’s prior range. Non-GAAP gross margin was guided to 67.5%–68.5%, with operating margin of 33.5%–34.5%. For the full fiscal year 2026, Cisco previously guided to revenue of $60.2–$61.0 billion and EPS of $4.08–$4.14 versus current consensus of roughly $60.7 billion and $4.12, respectively.Cisco has built credibility by consistently delivering modest beats. Over the past four quarters, EPS has topped expectations by $0.01 to $0.04 each time, and revenue has also come in ahead of consensus. That pattern of steady execution — not dramatic upside, but dependable delivery — has helped support the stock’s resilience during recent volatility in broader tech and AI names.The primary focus this quarter will again be AI infrastructure demand. Last quarter, Cisco reported $1.3 billion in AI infrastructure orders from hyperscalers and indicated it expects to recognize roughly $3 billion of AI-related revenue from hyperscalers in FY26. Analysts are watching whether AI orders can remain near or above the $1.3 billion run rate. UBS expects AI orders to be roughly flat sequentially at around $1.3 billion, which would represent about 20% of Cisco’s $6.2 billion FY26 AI order target. Morgan Stanley believes strong campus cycle demand and data center spending checks point to a likely top-line beat.Beyond hyperscalers, management previously cited a $2 billion-plus pipeline across enterprise, sovereign, and neocloud customers. Investors will want clarity on conversion timing and whether enterprise AI spending is accelerating or merely building backlog. With hyperscaler capital expenditures surging there is a broad tailwind in AI-related infrastructure that Cisco is well positioned to capture.Networking revenue remains the core driver. Wall Street expects networking revenue of about $7.9 billion, up from $6.85 billion last year. Campus refresh cycles are a major theme. Evercore highlights an eight-year replacement cycle since the last major campus upgrade wave and sees 6–8% industry growth through CY26. Incremental demand drivers include WiFi 7 deployments and eventual end-of-life transitions for legacy Catalyst 4K and 6K systems, which together represent roughly 20% of the installed base.Security is an area of scrutiny. Analysts expect security revenue around $2.1 billion, roughly flat year over year. Management previously cited timing shifts tied to Splunk’s revenue mix transition toward cloud subscriptions. While characterized as temporary, investors will be listening closely for evidence of normalization. Persistent softness here could temper enthusiasm even if networking and AI remain strong.Margins are another key variable. AI-related systems and optics can carry favorable margin characteristics, but memory and component costs are a potential headwind. Morgan Stanley flagged memory cost impact into FY27 as a longer-term risk, though Cisco has secured supply for the current fiscal year. UBS notes that unusually strong optics orders last quarter — roughly $650 million versus about $280 million in the July quarter — may not fully repeat, which could influence mix and margin dynamics.Product launches could provide incremental upside narrative. Cisco recently unveiled its Silicon One G300 switch chip, designed to accelerate data center AI workloads and compete with offerings from Broadcom and Nvidia. The G300 is expected to go on sale in the second half of the year and aims to improve interconnect performance across large-scale AI clusters. Additionally, Cisco open-sourced Project CodeGuard, a framework designed to secure AI-generated code — a move that reinforces its broader positioning in secure AI infrastructure.Price action into the print reflects elevated but not euphoric expectations. Shares have rallied steadily since mid-January and are trading around the mid-$80s, close to consensus price targets in the $86–$95 range. Consensus recommendation is Buy, and implied volatility suggests a post-earnings move of roughly ±5–6%, modestly above Cisco’s historical average reaction. Short interest is low at roughly 1.3%, indicating limited skepticism positioning.Options activity implies traders are bracing for movement but not anticipating a dramatic shock. With AI infrastructure stocks experiencing some recent rotation, Cisco’s results could influence sentiment across peers such as Arista Networks, Ciena, and Nokia, as well as supplier Broadcom. A strong print with raised AI guidance could reignite momentum in networking hardware broadly, while any signs of deceleration could prompt near-term profit-taking.Key drivers to watch include: AI order growth versus the $1.3 billion benchmark; campus networking order trends; security stabilization; gross margin performance relative to guidance; and any adjustments to full-year revenue and EPS outlook. Investors will also focus on remaining performance obligations, previously around $43 billion, as a gauge of forward visibility.Areas of concern center on sustainability of hyperscaler AI spending, normalization of optics orders, memory cost pressures, and potential softness in legacy security or telco markets. Additionally, at roughly 18–20x forward earnings, Cisco is trading near the upper end of its historical range. That leaves less room for disappointment.Ultimately, Cisco enters earnings as a steady compounder with credible AI exposure, not a speculative AI pure play. To sustain its recent resilience, management likely needs to deliver another clean beat, reaffirm or raise FY26 guidance, and reinforce confidence in AI order momentum and campus refresh durability. Anything short of that could test whether the stock’s valuation has already discounted much of the good news.

Cisco’s AI Moment of Truth: Will $1.3B in Orders Spark a Breakout — or Trigger a Tech Selloff?

Global hedge funds intensified their concentration in the Information Technology and Industrials sectors during January, according to the latest Hazeltree Crowdedness Report. The data, which aggregates trading activity from more than 600 global funds managing over $4 trillion in assets, suggests a growing institutional <a href="https://hazeltree.com/resource/hazeltree-crowdedness-report-january-2026/" target='__blank'>appetite for growth-oriented sectors</a> despite lingering concerns over capital expenditure.In North America, the Information Technology sector—specifically software and services—emerged as the most crowded space for both long and short positions. While funds are betting heavily on the sector&#39;s upside, the simultaneous high short interest indicates a market that remains deeply divided on valuations. Among large-cap movers, companies such as Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Broadcom Inc., Netflix Inc., and ServiceNow Inc. all saw a month-over-month increase of over 10% in the number of funds holding long positions.A primary driver of this renewed confidence is a shift in sentiment regarding artificial intelligence investments. Meta Platforms Inc. serves as a bellwether for this trend; after an 11% stock drop in October 2025 fueled by concerns over &quot;aggressive capital spending,&quot; the company ended January 2026 as the fourth most crowded long large-cap name in North America. <img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Hazeltree_eb53efeb1770838373856.jpg&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}]}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Hazeltree_eb53efeb1770838373856.jpg" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />Hazeltree noted that Meta’s Q4 results &quot;somewhat assured investors that Meta’s core business is benefiting from artificial intelligence and its capital expenditures became justifiable&quot;.In contrast, the Consumer Staples sector faced headwinds, illustrating how corporate strategy can trigger rapid institutional exits. Kimberly-Clark Corporation became a primary target for shorts following its $48.7 billion acquisition of Kenvue Inc.. Investors reacted poorly to the deal’s price premium and weak sales from the acquiree, leading to a 14.6% single-day dive in stock price on November 3, 2025. By the end of January 2026, the short-to-long fund ratio for Kimberly-Clark stood at roughly 2:1, making it the fifth most crowded short in the North American large-cap market.Outside of North America, the Industrials sector dominated the landscape. In the EMEA and APAC regions, Industrials were the most crowded sector for both long and short positions. Notable activity in these regions included a 10% increase in long positions for semiconductor giant ASML Holding and dairy producer China Mengniu Dairy Co, while SoftBank Group Corp saw a significant rise in short interest.Hazeltree’s proprietary metrics, including the &quot;utilization rate&quot;—which measures the demand for borrowed shares—highlight the technical nature of these market moves. For instance, the utilization rate for Kimberly-Clark peaked in December 2025 as shorts crowded into the trade following the Kenvue announcement. As hedge funds continue to navigate global market shifts, the report suggests that institutional investors are increasingly looking past broad volatility to make high-conviction bets on specific corporate restructurings and technological advancements.

Dow's 50,000 Milestone: A Record Price, But What's Priced In?

<video src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HZI2nC2fNlI" poster="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Episode 22_56bf910e1770820585182.jpg" data="{&quot;videoUrl&quot;:&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/HZI2nC2fNlI&quot;,&quot;coverUrl&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/Episode 22_56bf910e1770820585182.jpg&quot;}"></video>U.S. stocks edged higher shortly after the opening bell Wednesday as investors digested January’s employment report and assessed the outlook for interest rates.The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 242.90 points, or 0.48%, to 50431.0. The S&amp;P 500 added 50.75 points, or 0.73%, to 6992.56, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 208.61 points, or 0.90%, to 23311.1. The Russell 2000 advanced 2.14 points, or 0.81%, to 268.31.The gains followed the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ <a href="https://www.ainvest.com/news/jobs-blowout-shocks-wall-street-yields-spike-4-20-eyes-7-000-june-rate-cut-odds-collapse-2602/" target='__blank'>January employment report,</a> which showed total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 130,000 and the unemployment rate held at 4.3%. The BLS said job gains occurred in health care, social assistance and construction, while federal government and financial activities shed positions. Average hourly earnings increased 0.4% in January to $37.17, up 3.7% from a year earlier, according to the agency.Revisions were notable. The change in total nonfarm employment for 2025 was revised from +584,000 to +181,000 on a seasonally adjusted basis, and the March 2025 level was revised downward by 898,000 after benchmarking to the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, the BLS said.Treasury markets have been closely tracking labor-market signals. Bloomberg reported that “US Treasuries edged higher ahead of January’s delayed employment report, which may fan expectations of deeper interest-rate cuts this year.” The 10-year yield was down one basis point at 4.13% on Wednesday, its lowest level in five weeks, while the two-year yield was at 3.45%, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-11/us-treasuries-steady-as-traders-await-delayed-us-payrolls-data?srnd=homepage-americas" target='__blank'>according to Bloomberg.</a> “The labor market appears to hold the key to the path of rates,” said Brendan Murphy, Head of Fixed Income, North America at Insight Investment, as quoted by Bloomberg. While Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has noted signs of stabilization in the labor market, the US government shutdown and ongoing political risks mean the Fed would likely “be responsive to any additional signs of labor-market deterioration,” Murphy added.Separate analysis from Torsten Slok, Chief Economist at Apollo Global Management, highlighted the relationship between economic surprises and long-term rates, noting in a chart titled “10-Year Yields Should Be Higher” that the Citi Economic Surprise Index has moved higher alongside the 10-year yield.<img data-json="{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/021126_Chart_V2_cc0b0c481770820739159.jpg&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;children&quot;:[{&quot;text&quot;:&quot;&quot;}]}" src="https://cdn.ainvest.com/articles/focusnews/coverimage/content/pictures/021126_Chart_V2_cc0b0c481770820739159.jpg" contentEditable="false" style="display: block; margin: 0 auto; maxWidth: 100%" />Investors now face a crosscurrent: benchmark revisions that suggest weaker underlying job growth in 2025, steady wage gains that could keep inflation pressures in view, and bond yields that remain near multiweek lows. With equity indexes hovering near record levels, the trajectory of long-term rates—and whether incoming data continues to surprise to the upside—may determine whether the rally can extend.
