Pre-market: 5 titoli da monitorare oggi, 14 agosto 2024

Cisco Systems Inc

Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) shares have fallen 3% to $56.90 following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/24/11/41981019/cisco-shares-are-dropping-today-whats-going-on">last week&#8217;s release</a> of its fiscal first-quarter 2025 results. 
Despite surpassing Wall Street expectations for both revenue and earnings, the company reported a year-over-year revenue decline that raised investor concerns.
What Happened: Cisco reported quarterly revenue of $13.84 billion, narrowly topping analysts' forecasts of $13.77 billion, with adjusted earnings of 91 cents per share, exceeding the expected 87 cents. 
This marked the tenth consecutive quarter the company has outperformed estimates. However, revenue dipped 6% from the prior year, as product revenue fell by 9%, offset slightly by a 6% increase in services revenue.
Cash flow from operations surged 54% year-over-year to $3.7 billion, and Cisco closed the quarter with $18.7 billion in cash and investments. 
For the fiscal second quarter, Cisco projected revenue between $13.75 billion and $13.95 billion and adjusted earnings of 89 to 91 cents per share. Full-year revenue guidance was set at $55.3 billion to $56.3 billion, with adjusted earnings of $3.60 to $3.66 per share.
CEO Chuck Robbins meanwhile emphasized the company&#8217;s strategic position in AI-driven infrastructure investments. Despite the mixed sentiment, several analysts raised price targets on Cisco, with BofA Securities projecting the stock to reach $72.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy CSCO Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Cisco Systems&#8217; case, it is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, CSCO has a 52-week high of $59.38 and a 52-week low of $44.50.

Dow Dips Over 200 Points Following Economic Reports, Tesla Tumbles On Potential Removal Of EV Tax Credit: Fear Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

Editor&#8217;s Note: The article was changed to reflect Renaissance Technologies, not Jim Simons, who passed away in May 2024.
In its third-quarter update, Renaissance Technologies, founded by the late <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jim-simons">famed "Quant King</a>&#8221; Jim Simons, showcased some notable pivots within its $66.5 billion portfolio.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Microsoft Stake, Trims Other Tech Names</h1>
Renaissance Technologies increased its stake in Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), betting on the tech giant's expansion in cloud and AI sectors, Renaissance revealed in a <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1037389/000103738924000091/xslForm13F_X02/primary_doc.xml">Wednesday SEC filing</a>.
At the same time, the company pared back investments in high-growth stocks such as Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). Nvidia's AI boom and Tesla's market lead in EVs didn't deter the company from reducing exposure, perhaps as a hedge against market corrections.
Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) was also scaled back, suggesting Renaissance might be positioning itself more defensively as tech valuations reach historic highs.
Renaissance's move to fortify positions in well-established tech names could signal a more cautious stance on speculative growth.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Palantir Takes The Lead In Renaissance's Portfolio</h1>
Among all the holdings, Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) now stands as Renaissance's largest position, making up 2.15% of the portfolio. Known for its deep government contracts and burgeoning AI applications, Palantir's data-centric profile aligns well with Renaissance&#8217;s quant-driven approach.
This shift highlights a strategic tilt toward resilient, data-focused tech plays, reflecting the company&#8217;s long-term confidence in the power of predictive analytics and secure data solutions.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Top Buys: Microsoft, Apple, Cisco</h1>
Alongside Microsoft, Renaissance added significantly to Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>). This trio signals a preference for big-cap stability in a year marked by market volatility.
While Microsoft's AI and cloud growth makes it a solid pick, Apple and Cisco bring diverse revenue streams, from consumer tech to networking infrastructure, giving Renaissance a balanced tech exposure.

Renaissance Technologies Shifts Gears: Microsoft In, Tesla Out, Palantir On Top [CORRECTED]

Signs of a waning Trump-led rally emerged Thursday as investors assessed the economic outlook and awaited potential signals on the interest-rate path from the upcoming Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8216;s speech in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jerome-powell">Dallas at 3 p.m. ET. </a>
Inflation data from the past two days provided mixed signals: consumer prices met expectations, while producer prices slightly exceeded forecasts, with both indicators showing a year-over-year uptick in October.
Despite this inflation data, markets remain confident the Fed will continue easing, pricing in an 80% likelihood of a December rate cut.
Wall Street&#8217;s major indices were in the red by midday, with the S&amp;P 500 down 0.3% and small-cap stocks lagging behind large-caps.
The U.S. dollar index ticked up 0.1%, even as Treasury yields declined. Bonds outperformed equities, with the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) climbing 1.2%.
Gold edged 0.2% lower, while oil rose 0.2%. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) saw its rally stall, dropping 1.8%.

10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) shares are trading lower Thursday following the release of the networking equipment company&#8217;s first-quarter fiscal 2025 results. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41955614/cisco-q1-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-strong-start-to-year-customers-investing-in-ai-and-more">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: Cisco reported revenue of $13.84 billion for the quarter, beating analyst estimates of $13.77 billion. Adjusted earnings per share came in at 91 cents, exceeding the expected 87 cents per share, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>. This marks the tenth consecutive quarter that Cisco has topped estimates for revenue and earnings.
Although Cisco beat analyst expectations, total revenue fell 6% year-over-year as product revenue declined 9%, and services revenue increased 6%. The company generated $3.7 billion in cash flow from operations, a 54% increase compared to the same quarter last year, and ended the period with $18.7 billion in cash and investments.
Looking ahead, Cisco anticipates fiscal second-quarter revenue between $13.75 billion and $13.95 billion, and adjusted earnings per share in the range of 89 cents to 91 cents. The company projects full-year 2025 revenue between $55.3 billion and $56.3 billion, and full-year adjusted earnings between $3.60 and $3.66 per share.
"Cisco is off to a strong start to fiscal 2025. Our customers are investing in critical infrastructure to prepare for AI, and with the breadth of our portfolio, we are uniquely positioned to capitalize on this opportunity," said Chuck Robbins, chair and CEO of Cisco.

The company reported its results amid an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">exciting earnings season</a>. Here are some key analyst takeaways.
<ul>
<li>Goldman Sachs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5a1c4e20efacff00015a984c/michael-ng">analyst Michael Ng</a> maintained a Neutral, while raising the price target higher from $51 to $56.</li>

</ul>
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
Goldman Sachs: Cisco Systemsreported its fiscal first-quarter earnings at 91 cents per share, higher than consensus of 87 cents per share, with the beat being driven by better-than-expected gross margins and in-line revenue of $13.8 billion, Ng said in a note. Order growth ex-Splunk accelerated to 9% year-on-year, with 17% growth in Enterprise and 22% in Service Provider &amp; Cloud, he added.
"Webscale, which is a subset within Service Provider &amp; Cloud, was a bright spot with orders growing triple digits," including more than $300 million of AI orders, the analyst wrote. The AI momentum puts Cisco Systems "well on track" to exceed its fiscal 2025 target of $1 billion in AI orders, he further stated.
Piper Sandler: Cisco Systems posted total revenues of $13.84 billion, which represents a 6% year-on-year decline but came in higher than expectations by around 1%, Fish said. "The upside again came via Product, though primarily was due to ~ $20M higher Splunk contribution," he further wrote.
Management raised their annual revenue guidance by $200 million at the midpoint, "given the demand environment, but more likely the upside of recurring Splunk revenue," the analyst stated. This led Cisco Systems to raise its earnings guidance to $3.60-$3.66 per share, he added.
Morgan Stanley: Cisco Systems reported higher-than-expected quarterly results, largely due to Splunk's outperformance, Marshall said. "Upending on networking is improving coming out of inventory digestion," he added.
The company benefited from "meaningful traction" across three AI investments, the first being more than $300 million in AI orders, the analyst stated. Second was double digit growth in networking orders due to improving connectivity ahead of AI and the third was "in terms of data center modernization for enterprises ahead of AI investments," he further wrote.
Price Action: Shares of Cisco Systems had declined by 1.30% to $58.41 at the time of publication on Thursday.
