Compare Broadcom with Cisco is the same comparison as a Car to a bicycle. Broadcom is a car, Cisco is a bicycle.
@h1 did u see csco was up when silicon 1 announced and 1 day later broadcom announced a tomahawk 6, the stock dropped more than it went up
Dying? Have you looked at stock price or market share? Clearly not. This is just like the mo--nic xyz company is eating cisco’s
Lunch nonsense. You need a new troll line dude.
Cisco is not a small company. Let me know any other company bigger than Cisco in networking? Cisco is at the top.
Don’t compare cisco to other big companies generating billions of dollars on ads revenues like Google and Facebook. That is not a fair comparison.
In the 2024 list, Cisco moved up eight spots to #74, with the company generating $57 billion in revenue in the prior fiscal year.
Cisco isn't profitable enough to rank in the top tier of tech companies, but it makes enough money to keep its valuation out of range for mergers or acquisitions.
Why would someone want to acquire a sideways old-tech company with too many employees anyway?
Cisco's fate will be like IBM or Stellantis (Chrysler)...a low-quality bottom feeder that seems able to survive but not much more.
Cisco is critical for national security, network backbone, stock market backbone and dept of defense (war).
It is profitable and stay as a separate private company for many more years or decades.
Don’t waste your time on posting Cisco will close soon or being sold to someone else. I have seen these kinda posts about 15 years ago.
I'm as frustrated with Cisco as anyone, but this post is id--tic. Company is extremely profitable and is going no where.
Stock to 80? Keep dying.
Won't happen, the company is overvalued due to current tech bubble, no one sane is going to commit $100 billion++ to acquiring a dying company.
A merger of sorts could conceivably be structured to turn two companies into one for less than the market cap, but again...why?
Is there someone out there desperately looking to acquire a commodity hardware business? A failing security business? Corporate rot and high headcount? No one wants these things...but there is so much money floating around in the market, all this cr-p still has a nearly $300bln market cap...
This is why too much liquidity in the market can be a bad thing...it lets tu-ds like Cisco float and survive instead of just dying.
Amen. Time to sleep
