“Predictions are hard,” Yogi Berra once quipped, “especially about the future”. Yes they are. But in today's AI boom/bubble, how exactly can we predict the future? According to Silicon Valley venture capitalist Aman Verjee, access to the future lies in the past. In his new book, A Brief History of Financial Bubbles, Verjee looks at history - particularly the 17th century Dutch tulip mania and the railway mania of 19th century England - to make sense of today's tech economics. So what does history teach us about the current AI exuberance: boom or bubble? The Stanford and Harvard-educated Verjee, a member of the PayPal Mafia who wrote the company's first business plan with Peter Thiel, and who now runs his own venture fund, brings both historical perspective and insider experience to this multi-trillion-dollar question. Today's market is overheated, the VC warns, but it's more nuanced than 1999. The MAG-7 companies are genuinely profitable, unlike the dotcom darlings. Nvidia isn't Cisco. Yet “lazy circularity” in AI deal-making and pre-seed valuations hitting $50 million suggests traditional symptoms of irrational exuberance are returning. Even Yogi Berra might predict that. * Every bubble has believers who insist “this time is different” - and sometimes they're right. Verjee argues that the 1999 dotcom bubble actually created lasting value through companies like Amazon, PayPal, and the infrastructure that powered the next two decades of growth. But the concurrent telecom bubble destroyed far more wealth through outright fraud at companies like Enron and WorldCom.* Bubbles always occur in the world's richest country during periods of unchallenged hegemony. Britain dominated globally during its 1840s railway mania. America was the sole superpower during the dotcom boom. Today's AI frenzy coincides with American technological dominance - but also with a genuine rival in China, making this bubble fundamentally different from its predecessors.* The current market shows dangerous signs but isn't 1999. Unlike the dotcom era when 99% of fiber optic cable laid was “dark” (unused), Nvidia could double GPU production and still sell every chip. The MAG-7 trade at 27-29 times earnings versus the S&P 500's 70x multiple in 2000. Real profitability matters - but $50 million pre-seed valuations and circular revenue deals between AI companies echo familiar patterns of excess.* Government intervention in markets rarely ends well. Verjee warns against America adopting an industrial policy of “picking winners” - pointing to Japan's 1980s bubble as a cautionary tale. Thirty-five years after its collapse, Japan's GDP per capita remains unchanged. OpenAI is not too big to fail, and shouldn't be treated as such.* Immigration fuels American innovation - full stop. When anti-H1B voices argue for restricting skilled immigration, Verjee points to the counter-evidence: Elon Musk, Sergey Brin, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella, Max Levchin, and himself - all H1B visa holders who created millions of American jobs and trillions in shareholder value. Closing that pipeline would be economically suicidal.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily, Eugenio Garibay y Juan Manuel de los Reyes analizan el acuerdo que pone fin, al menos temporalmente, al cierre de gobierno en Estados Unidos, tras semanas de incertidumbre política y tensiones presupuestarias. Explican cómo esta reapertura, válida hasta enero, busca dar un respiro a los mercados y a la economía, aunque deja abiertas las disputas sobre el gasto público y la deuda.En el segundo bloque, la conversación gira hacia los reportes corporativos de Cisco y Disney, dos compañías con modelos de negocio muy distintos pero igualmente desafiadas por la transformación tecnológica. Mientras Cisco enfrenta una desaceleración en el gasto corporativo y apuesta por los servicios en la nube y la inteligencia artificial, Disney muestra señales de recuperación en su negocio de streaming y parques temáticos, aunque con retos en rentabilidad.

Wall Street fell overnight as tech stocks led a broad selloff, with U.S. Treasuries also stumbling after the government shutdown ended and traders braced for renewed market swings. Cisco bucked the trend, surging after an AI-fuelled outlook beat expectations, while Walt Disney slipped on weaker cable and box office performance. In commodities, oil prices edged higher after steep losses in the previous session, while gold pared gains as rate-cut bets eased. Back home, Aussie shares are set to fall sharply after strong jobs data dampened hopes of near-term rate cuts.

El cierre del Gobierno federal de Estados Unidos más largo de la historia ha terminado. No cesan las subidas en las Bolsas. Las ganancias de Cisco apuntan al optimismo en torno a la expansión de los centros de datos y el auge de la IA. Algo flojean futuros sobre índices estadounidenses a la espera de datos económicos. No han gustado los que ofrece hoy Reino Unido. PIB decepcionante pesa sobre la libra. Eso no basta para empujar al FT100 hacia los históricos 10.000 puntos. De Europa nos quedamos con Deutsche Telekom, que eleva las perspectivas de beneficios para todo el año y el dividendo. Siemens incumple su previsión de beneficios mientras prepara la escisión de Healthineers. Burberry vuelve a crecer con su primer aumento trimestral de ventas en dos años. En España, algo decepcionan resultados de Sabadell. El mercado lo analizamos con Ricardo Tomás, de Multigestión Basalto USA. Y hablamos con Carmen Boronat, CEO de Cloud District, sobre los grandes clichés en el ecosistema digital.

Los principales índices de Wall Street caen el jueves, a la espera de indicaciones sobre la economía estadounidense y la senda de la política monetaria después de que el presidente Trump firmase ayer un proyecto de ley que pone fin al cierre gubernamental más largo de la historia del país. Sin embargo, según el asesor económico de la Casa Blanca, Kevin Hassett, los datos de empleo de octubre nunca se van a conocer, porque las encuestas no se pudieron realizar. En lo corporativo, Cisco alcanza su nivel más alto en 25 años tras elevar sus previsiones para el ejercicio 26; las firmas de análisis elevan su previsión. Y Moody's rebaja la calificación de la deuda de Nike por la presión de los costes. El análisis es de Georgina Sierra, de DiverInvest.

What does it really take to build an AI-ready network in 2025? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Vikas Butaney from Cisco and Ali Tehrani from Presidio to unpack the biggest announcements from Cisco's Partner Summit and discuss how their collaboration is helping enterprises modernise networks for the AI era. Together, we explore how businesses can move faster, strengthen security, and simplify operations while adapting to a world of continuous data flow and intelligent automation. Vikas shares how Cisco's strategy is built around three customer imperatives: AI ready data centers, future proof workplaces, and digital resilience. He talks about how Cisco is weaving these priorities into new innovations such as secure routers with five times the throughput, Wi Fi 7 access points, and unified dashboards that bring Catalyst Center and Meraki together for a single view of the network. He also introduces AI Canvas, a multiplayer workspace that allows NetOps and SecOps teams to collaborate in real time, showing what it looks like when AI becomes part of the operational fabric rather than an add on. Ali joins the conversation with the partner's perspective, explaining how Presidio brings Cisco's architecture to life through the last mile of execution. He describes how the Cisco Unified Branch initiative uses AI workflows and branches as code to deliver zero touch rollout across thousands of sites. By combining automation, golden configuration templates, and telemetry driven SLAs, Presidio helps customers reduce deployment times from weeks to minutes while maintaining consistent performance and security. Throughout our discussion, we compare AI for networking, where AI helps to run and optimise the network, with networking for AI, which provides the infrastructure to power high volume AI workloads. We talk about how Cisco is building security directly into the network with Access Manager, simplifying IoT segmentation, and preparing for a post quantum world. This episode offers a clear, inside look at how Cisco and Presidio are shaping the next generation of secure, intelligent networks.

Cisco (CSCO) is on the path to breaking its all-time high that it last touched in March 2000. Ali Mogharabi believes A.I. networking revenue and advances to security will prove paramount in the company's growth. He sees the company facing lots of competition, however, ranging from rising mid-caps in Arista Networks (ANET) to established giants in Nvidia (NVDA). Tom White offers an example options trade for Cisco.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Cisco (CSCO) last hit its all-time high in March 2000, as shares traded just a few dollars under the record heading into earnings. The stock made good momentum in 2025 with a 25% rally, though Rick Ducat shows other outperformers in its industry like Arista Networks (ANET) that show more room for Cisco to catch up. He highlights where the company juggled with support and resistance levels to explain where the stock can run next. As for the options front, those same levels can come into play with where traders are pricing stock moves.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

This episode of the Pure Report features a conversation with Eugene McGrath, a nine-year veteran of Pure Storage and a Field Solution Architect. Our discussion delves into Gene's diverse background, starting from his early days in IT racking and stacking servers at companies like Microsoft and Pixar, and how that hands-on experience shaped his career. We compare the evolution of his role and the industry, emphasizing the importance of a versatile skill set in the ever-changing tech landscape, particularly with his focus now on converged infrastructure solutions like FlashStack. We then dive into the partnership between Pure Storage and Cisco, specifically around the FlashStack converged infrastructure solution. Gene explains why this decade-long collaboration works, attributing it to a shared philosophy of simplifying infrastructure and improving the customer lifecycle. Our conversation also touches on the recent shift in Cisco's mindset, with Pure Storage taking a more prominent role, including the recent Nutanix partnership announcement. We further explore the concepts of "Day Zero" and "Day One" challenges in infrastructure deployment, emphasizing how Cisco Validated Design and automation mitigate risks and accelerate implementation for customers. Our discussion concludes with the "Hot Takes" segment, where Gene discusses the growing trends of "hypervisor fatigue" and the repatriation of workloads from the cloud due to cost and performance issues. He predicts a significant shift towards containerization as companies seek more agnostic and flexible approaches to their IT infrastructure. Gene also shares a memorable "oops" moment from his career, involving 3,000 servers racked upside down, and offers advice to his younger self about the explosion of data and the increasing importance of data management.

The Pentagon is preparing to enforce the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) requirements for small businesses, with compliance becoming mandatory in contracts starting November 10, 2025. Nearly 500 organizations have already achieved Level 2 certification, and the Defense Department is actively surveying small businesses to assess their readiness for these new standards. This initiative is expected to extend beyond Department of Defense contractors, potentially influencing other federal agencies and international partners to adopt similar cybersecurity measures.Recent reports highlight a concerning rise in cybersecurity threats, particularly in mobile attacks and ransomware incidents. According to the Verizon 2025 Mobile Security Index, 85% of organizations have reported increased mobile attacks, with 38% identifying AI-powered ransomware as a growing concern. Despite the widespread use of generative AI tools, only 17% of organizations have implemented specific security measures to counter AI-assisted attacks. Additionally, a report from Sophos indicates that 58% of retailers impacted by ransomware opted to pay the ransom, with the median demand doubling to $2 million.The episode also discusses the withdrawal of a controversial MIT Sloan paper that claimed 80% of ransomware attacks involved artificial intelligence, following criticism from cybersecurity experts. This incident underscores the issue of "AI-washing" in the cybersecurity sector, where unverified claims are made to attract attention. MSPs are advised to scrutinize such claims and focus on proven security practices rather than hype-driven narratives.For Managed Service Providers and IT decision-makers, the key takeaway is the importance of compliance and foundational cybersecurity practices. As the CMMC requirements loom, MSPs should consider developing readiness packages and tightening documentation processes. Additionally, the ongoing rise in lawsuits related to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) highlights the need for businesses to prioritize compliance as a critical aspect of risk management, reinforcing that effective cybersecurity and legal compliance are essential for sustainable operations. Four things to know today00:00 The Cyber Threats Are Real — But It's Not AI Geniuses, It's the Same Old Tricks Getting Smarter05:05 MIT's Big AI-Ransomware Claim Falls Apart — Turns Out the Data Didn't Hold Up07:09 The Pentagon's Rolling Out CMMC — and Small Businesses Are Feeling the Pressure on All Fronts10:27 Everyone Wants to Be Your Platform — New MSP Tools from Cisco, Barracuda, and WatchGuard Show WhyThis is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://saasalerts.com/mspradio/
