(NASDAQ: CSCO) shares slipped today as investors balanced recent insider selling with mixed fundamental and analyst developments. Insider Profit-Taking: Executive VP Deborah L. Stahlkopf sold 9,643 shares at an average of $63.50 (≈$612K), and insider Jeetendra I. Patel sold 9,961 shares at $63.97 (≈$637K), each trimming roughly 4–5% of their holdings. Positive Earnings & AI Momentum: In mid-May Cisco beat fiscal Q3 expectations, grew revenue 11%, and reported $600 million in AI infrastructure orders—exceeding its full-year goal a quarter early. Analysts subsequently lifted price targets toward the mid-$60s/low-$70s. Strategic Initiatives: At Cisco Live San Diego 2025, the company highlighted purpose-driven programs and an AI-security pivot, reinforcing its positioning in next-generation networking and security markets. Analyst Actions: StockNews.com upgraded CSCO, New Street Research reiterated a Neutral rating, and several firms raised targets after the strong AI order growth story. While the long-term AI/security narrative and analyst upgrades underpin upside potential, significant insider sales have prompted short-term caution, driving today’s modest pullback in CSCO shares.Posted 26m agoAI generated CSCO Latest News All Sources Trusted Sources MarketBeat Benzinga Bloomberg GlobeNewswire GuruFocus MarketWatch Motley Fool NASDAQ PR Newswire Reuters Seeking Alpha TalkMarkets The Street TipRanks The Wall Street Journal Wall Street Zen Yahoo Finance Source Sentiment refers to the positivity or negativity of each headline according to our language processing algorithm.
