Cisco Systems (CSCO) is making a return to relevance as investors anticipate its fiscal third-quarter earnings report after the market close on May 13. What makes the outlook even more interesting is the fact that shares have rallied on speculation around higher AI infrastructure demand, switching, security, observability, and enterprise networking.
The problem is clear. With CSCO stock up 62% from its 52-week low of $60.85, the bar is not going to be particularly low. Investors will need to pay much more attention to whether Cisco has what it takes to sustain the current rally in light of growing expectations tied to AI infrastructure investments.
