Arista Networks zählt zu den großen Gewinnern der vergangenen Dekade: Seit dem Börsengang im Jahr 2014 konnte das Unternehmen über 1.900 % Kursgewinn erzielen – ganz ohne Dividende. Doch nun ist der Aktienkurs unter Druck geraten. In dieser Analyse geht es um die Frage, ob der jüngste Rücksetzer lediglich eine technische Korrektur darstellt oder ob strukturelle Risiken erkennbar werden. Die Bewertung steht auf dem Prüfstand: Wie attraktiv ist das Kursniveau nach dem Rückgang – und welche Rolle spielen Margen, Wachstum und Cashflow-Entwicklung? Besonders im Fokus steht die Marktstellung gegenüber Wettbewerbern wie Cisco, Hewlett Packard, Extreme Networks und Juniper Networks. Arista hat sich mit seiner softwaregetriebenen Netzwerkarchitektur, dem Betriebssystem EOS und einer starken Kundenbindung bei Hyperscalern wie Meta, Microsoft und Google eine besondere Position erarbeitet. Thematisiert werden außerdem:1. Die fundamentale Entwicklung des Unternehmens2. Die Bedeutung möglicher Schweinezyklen im Netzwerkmarkt3. Mögliche mittelfristige Belastungen durch eine Normalisierung der Investitionsdynamik4. Der technologische Burggraben und die Frage nach nachhaltigem Wettbewerbsvorteil5.

Half a century is a long time for an IT business, and Microsoft is justified in making a lot of noise to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary. The celebration brought together three Microsoft CEOs: Gates, Balmer, and Nadella. Microsoft CoPilot isn't quite as old as the company, but it was still at the center of the celebrations. Many Microsoft products have come and gone over fifty years. Is CoPilot going to be one of the keepers? This and more on the Tech Field Day News Rundown.

Producer Pierre wasn't well this week, so we were forced to speak to special guest Neil McRae of Juniper Networks over Zoom. Broadcasting from his pinball den, Neil offered an update on his company before reflecting on the recent MWC trade show. They covered a lot of hot mobile topics, including private 5G vs wifi, but definitely not 6G. That eventually led to speculation about whether 6G will ever be a big deal, before concluding with a look at a buzzword that has already lost its lustre – Open RAN.

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership episode, I had the opportunity to speak with Deep Mahajan, Vice President of Talent Management at Juniper Networks, about the transformative power of empathy in the workplace—and how it's anything but a “soft” skill. Deep shared her personal journey, the pivotal influence of her father, and how empathy is not only a moral imperative but a performance-driving force within high-achieving organizations.Deep's leadership philosophy began taking shape in a small town in Rajasthan, India, where she watched her father—at the peak of his career as a surgeon—pivot to a life of service. His courageous example inspired her to choose a people-centered path, ultimately leading her to the world of talent development and performance strategy.Throughout her career, Deep challenged conventional norms and followed a purpose-led approach, opting for authenticity and human-centric design over prestige or tradition. Her commitment to building empathetic systems has enabled her to scale high-performance cultures while still honoring each employee's unique journey.In our conversation, Deep breaks down how empathy is woven into every part of performance management: from setting collaborative goals to delivering meaningful feedback, and from personalized development to building a culture of trust and inclusion. Her message is clear—empathy isn't optional, it's essential.Key takeaways from the interview:0:00:57 – Deep's father was her first role model in empathy, choosing community service over personal accolades at the height of his medical career.0:03:27 – Her career path shifted from engineering and medicine to economics and ultimately HR, driven by her desire to help people grow.0:04:41 – Empathy is a critical ingredient in performance management—it enhances goal setting, feedback, development, and recognition.0:06:53 – Lack of empathy in leadership leads to broken systems, disengagement, and underperformance.0:08:15 – Continuous, two-way conversations drive better outcomes than impersonal, once-a-year performance reviews.0:09:12 – High-performance cultures depend on balancing bold expectations with genuine, consistent care for individuals.0:10:00 – The future of work demands personalization, and empathetic systems are key to retaining and inspiring top talent.0:11:08 – Empathy must be authentic—it can't be faked. Caring must come from a place of real connection.0:11:50 – Deep's “5-second rule” helps leaders pause and respond with empathy in emotionally charged conversations.0:12:21 – True empathy is about listening to understand, not to respond—especially when tensions are high.If Deep's insights resonated with you, I'd love to hear your story. Let's connect and explore how you can bring strategic empathy into your own leadership journey.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, please email me at info@sherylkline.com. If you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', build cohesive, high-performing teams, or lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Also, if your company would like to be a part of the 10-company book speaking roadshow for my new book, The Fearless Female Leader, I'd love to discuss it with you!Cheering you on always! —Sheryl

Send us a textWhen tech giants make moves, the entire industry feels the tremors. Google's staggering $32 billion acquisition of cloud security company Wiz signals just how valuable security platforms have become in today's digital landscape—especially those with visibility across multiple cloud providers. With a $3.2 billion breakup fee attached, Google clearly believes regulators will ultimately approve the deal despite potential competitive concerns about accessing data from rival cloud platforms.Meanwhile, Cisco and NVIDIA are combining forces to create the "Cisco Secure AI Factory," a turnkey solution aimed at enterprises looking to deploy AI infrastructure without the complexity of building from scratch. This strategic partnership packages Cisco's networking equipment with NVIDIA's powerful AI chipsets, offering organizations a direct path to AI implementation. The question remains whether enterprises will adopt these solutions while still waiting for clear ROI from AI investments.The cloud landscape continues to evolve in unexpected ways, with HPE announcing workforce reductions despite strong revenue growth, all while battling regulatory challenges to its Juniper Networks acquisition. And as smaller cloud providers like NetEase shutter their services, organizations are reminded of the importance of multi-cloud strategies that distribute risk and enhance resilience. These developments underscore a crucial reality: in today's technology ecosystem, consolidation presents both opportunities and significant challenges for businesses relying on digital infrastructure. Are you prepared for the shifting terrain of cloud computing?

Corero Network Security CEO Carl Herberger joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's strategic vision for 2025, emphasizing global expansion, innovation, and the evolving cybersecurity landscape. Herberger outlined Corero's increasing global footprint, with new sales offices opening in the Middle East, Latin America, and the Asia-Pacific region, reinforcing the company's commitment to expanding its market reach. A key highlight of Corero's strategy is the Core platform, which enhances distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection by integrating complementary cybersecurity solutions. “Our customers no longer need to go elsewhere for additional security solutions—we're bringing everything into our portfolio,” Herberger stated, signaling a shift toward a more comprehensive cybersecurity approach. As AI-driven computing continues to grow, so does the demand for advanced data center security. Herberger emphasized that Corero is well-positioned to meet these demands, thanks to its strong partnerships with industry leaders like Akamai and Juniper Networks. He also projected rapid growth in Net Revenue Retention (NRR) for 2025, reflecting the company's expanding customer base and increasing adoption of its solutions. With a strong focus on execution, Corero aims to drive sales and strengthen its market presence in the rapidly evolving cybersecurity sector, positioning itself as a key player in the fight against modern cyber threats. #proactiveinvestors #coreronetworksecurity #aim #cns #otcqx #ddosf #DDoSProtection #Corero #AI #NetworkSecurity #TechInnovation #DataCenters #CyberThreats #CloudSecurity #TechNews

N2K Pro members receive our Thursday wrap-up covering the latest in privacy, policy, and research news, including incidents, techniques, compliance, trends, and more. This week's Caveat Briefing covers the story of the Department of Justice (DOJ) suing to block Hewlett Packard Enterprise's (HPE) $14 billion acquisition of Juniper Networks, arguing that the merger would reduce competition in the wireless networking industry. The DOJ claims Juniper has pressured rivals like HPE to lower prices and innovate, and consolidation would weaken these benefits, potentially harming industries reliant on wireless networks. HPE and Juniper dispute the DOJ's claims, insisting the deal would enhance competition and improve networking infrastructure. Curious about the details?

We heard the rumors back in November that the HPE deal to acquired Juniper Networks was getting a closer look from the Department of Justice. Last week we got confirmation that the DoJ will be filing suit to half the deal. The arugument from the government is that the result of the deal would be 70% of the market for networking equipment being held by just two companies. Specifically cited was the wireless LAN component, where the DoJ said there were only three major players. This was refuted quickly by both HPE and Juniper. The UK Competition and Markets authority and the EU have both cleared the deal. This and more on The Rundown.

What bank earnings reveal for 2025 Most big bank earnings are out now and the news and the guidance did lean on the positive side. A concern was revealed, which was no surprise to us that loan growth was only up 1.1% from a year ago. It is expected to see loan growth for 2025 of around 2.6%. Bank of America was the big winner here reporting loan demand grew 5 % from last year, but regional bank KeyCorp disappointed investors with their guidance as they are estimating loan balances would drop 2 to 5% in 2025. A positive in their report was net interest income would rise 20%. That was not good enough for the analyst community as the stock sold off following the report. Net interest income, also known as NII is the difference of what a bank pays for money and what they loaned it out at. This is a big factor when one is investing in banks considering it is such a large part of their profits. We have talked before that we do expect to see more mergers and acquisitions, also known as M&A going forward. This could help banks like KeyCorp and other smaller banks that go on sale as their stock drops, as there may be a floor to the fall with bigger banks potentially having some interest in scooping up the smaller banks as they go on sale. There are over 4500 banks in the United States, that is a lot of potential for bank M&A. Expected reductions in regulations for banking would also be a great benefit to Wells Fargo and some other banks as well. I do believe in having a strong balanced portfolio and if you don't have some type of financial bank or financial institution in your portfolio, I believe you are missing out.   DeepSeek news sends US AI stocks into freefall! DeepSeek AI is a Chinese artificial intelligence start up that rivals US companies like ChatGPT, Anthropic, and several others. DeepSeek has seen it's popularity surge after releasing its reasoning model known as R1. This model apparently tops or is in line with the US competition and on Monday the DeepSeek app took over OpenAI's spot for the most downloaded free app in the US. Many of you can probably guess my thoughts on this after my concerns with TikTok, but I do feel this is extremely dangerous and users must be careful in understanding what type of data they are giving to China. The main reason this news sparked panic in the markets was DeepSeek was apparently able to launch its free, open-source large language model in just two months at a cost of under $6 million. That is million with an M and that is important considering all these US businesses that are spending billions and billions of dollars on AI. The first big question here is was all that money a waste and is there a more efficient way to achieve AI success like DeepSeek? Also, there have been curbs to insure China didn't receive the best chips. Did they steal trade secrets, find a way to get their hands on the chips, or most troubling would be, did they create their own technology that would rival a company like Nvidia? Personally, I was not too troubled by the decline on Monday considering we have no exposure to the AI space. I continue to believe it is just way too early to invest in this space and there could be other future competition that comes in that we don't even know of yet. I do also believe this points to how fickle the market can be and with a news story like this being able to take down some of the most beloved winners from 2024, the extremely high valuations for the market should concern investors in the broad-based S&P 500 or Nasdaq. I am still looking for value stocks to do well in 2025, but could this be the beginning of a decline for these overpriced tech names?   Custodians are not Fiduciaries, why that's important to you? Your financial advisor may be a fiduciary, but their custodian might not be and it could cost you money. Being a fiduciary registered with the SEC for around 20 years now, we take seriously our obligation to always do what's best for our clients. That also includes choosing a custodian to hold our clients' assets. We spent a lot of time looking for the right fit to make sure our custodian doesn't charge any unnecessary fees. This may come as a surprise to you, but not all custodians are the same. There are custodians that advisors use that may charge little fees like trading fees or maintenance fees that are passed on to you the client, that the advisor should make you aware of. Something recently came to light called an asset shift where some custodians encourage investment advisors to switch out of certain funds so that the custodian will make more money off of the assets they recommend. Unfortunately, this may not be best for the client and they may receive a lower yield. Keep in mind this is not illegal because the custodian does not have a fiduciary responsibility to do what is best for the client. Also, if the custodian forces the investment advisor to switch some funds into funds where the custodian will make more fees off of the new recommended fund, it could also cause a taxable situation for the client. This may be more prevalent in your smaller advisory firms with maybe fifty to hundred million dollars in assets under management. The custodian could tell the advisor either you need to increase your assets with us or begin paying an annual custody fee of anywhere from $200-$400 a year. That fee could really hurt the advisor, as an example if the advisor had 100 clients and they were charged $400 a year per client that would cost them $40,000 a year. More than likely, the advisor would probably have to raise their management fee to their clients to help offset the expense. Investors should ask their financial advisor, even if they are fiduciary if any of their recommendations are being forced by their custodian, which would cost you the client more money. I'm happy to report at our firm the custodian that we have chosen and have used now for ten years puts no pressure on us at all. This could be perhaps because we do have nearly $700 million in assets under management.   GDP growth shows the consumer was still strong in Q4 Gross Domestic Product or GDP missed expectations for 2.5% growth in the fourth quarter, but the growth rate of 2.3% was still ok. For the full year we did see a small deceleration in growth as GDP growth fell from 2.9% in 2023 to 2.8% in 2024. While none of this sounds overly optimistic, the consumer really carried the GDP growth in Q4, which I see as positive. Personal consumption expenditures saw growth of 4.2% in Q4 thanks to growth of 6.6% for goods and 3.1% for services. It was surprising to see durable goods really saw nice growth of 12.1% in the quarter, which compared to nondurable goods growth of 3.8%. The miss compared to the expectations can largely be attributed to the change in private inventories as that subtracted 0.93% from the headline GDP number. This category is quite volatile and considering it subtracted 0.22% from the headline number in Q3, I would not be surprised to see it actually benefit the headline number in the first quarter of this year. Considering the strength of the consumer, I was actually quite pleased with this report and I believe it is a good sign for our economy as we look forward. I do believe we will see some bumps in the road this year, but I still think we should see GDP growth in the 2-3% range for the full year.   Get Organized for Tax Time Tax season is upon us which means you are probably starting to receive tax documents that will be used to file your taxes.  Whether you file taxes yourself, or work with a tax preparer, make sure you gather all the information needed and have at least some understanding of what it means.  The tax documents alone do not always provide the information required to complete a tax return.  For example, contributions to a traditional IRA can either be tax deductible or non-deductible, such as when making a backdoor Roth contribution.  However, no tax form is generated to tell the tax preparer that a contribution was made at all which means the tax deduction would be missed, or your basis in the IRA would not be reported. In both cases you would be paying more tax than necessary.  With tax-deferred retirement accounts anytime money is distributed, a 1099-r is generated, but it is not always clear whether the distribution is taxable or not.  If the tax preparer is not aware that the 1099-r is from a direct or indirect rollover, a qualified charitable distribution, or the conversion from a non-deductible IRA, they may incorrectly report the distribution as taxable income.  When you are gathering your documents, make sure you are gathering everything.  If you have a taxable brokerage account, even if you didn't withdraw any money, you will still receive a 1099 because any interest, dividends, or realized capital gains are reportable.    If you have a mortgage, you will receive at least one 1098 and you may receive multiple.  If you refinanced during the year or even if your mortgage was sold from one lender to another, which is quite common, you will receive a 1098 from each lender.  If you don't include all of them, you won't receive your full interest deduction. Most people don't like dealing with taxes and everyone hates paying them, but take the time to understand your situation enough so you don't pay more than you need to.    Companies Discussed: Electronic Arts Inc. (EA), CSX Corporation (CSX), Dole PLC (DOLE), Juniper Networks, Inc. (JNPR)

In today's episode of the Data Center Frontier Show podcast, DCF's editors speak with hyperscale data center industry veteran Yuval Bachar, founder and CEO of hydrogen data center operator EdgeCloudLink (ECL).  Bachar has held data center leadership positions with Microsoft Azure, LinkedIn, Facebook, Cisco, and Juniper Networks. He was a founder of the Open19 project, which creates open hardware designs for enterprise users, and holds eight U.S. patents in data center, networking and system design. During the interview, we asked Bachar about ECL's flagship hydrogen data center projects near Houston, TX and Mountain View, CA. He went on to outline ECL's future plans for expansion and sustainability in response to growing AI demands. Within the context of Bachar's forecast outlook for hydrogen data centers, DCF's editors also inquired about natural gas as a transitional power source and the challenges of natural gas infrastructure.  With the AI boom is driving heavy interest in the upsides of hydrogen data centers, Bachar also took time to emphasize his company's ongoing commitments to sustainable data centers, as reflected by the industry at large. Our hydrogen production strategy discussion also touched on hyperscalers' intense needs for new energy solutions, before circling back around to sustainability in data center operations. Phased Development During our interview, Bachar said that ECL is expanding its hydrogen data center business with a focus on Texas, aiming for 100 megawatts in the first phase of campus development there and additional phases every six months. The company plans to complete four sites in the next four to five years, contingent on hydrogen availability and supply chain capabilities.  He emphasized that the urgency for data centers to meet AI demand is critical, citing estimates of the industry needing 50 to 100 gigawatts of power in the next five years, while highlighting the importance of rapid deployment and sustainable practices. He further noted that ECL is positioned as a significant off-taker for hydrogen, influencing suppliers to invest in cleaner hydrogen production facilities.  Bachar underlined his company's sustainability bona fides by stating, "We can deliver data centers which are fully sustainable right now." He noted that ECL aims to use a blend of gray and blue hydrogen initially in its data centers, transitioning to green hydrogen as production increases. 

The US Department of Justice is looking at two big IT companies, potentially making waves in the enterprise IT space. They are asking a federal judge to force Google to sell or spin off its Chrome browser, arguing that integration with Google's other products, particularly Android, Search, and the Play store, is anti-competitive. At the same time, the DOJ is also looking at the proposed acquisition of Juniper Networks by Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Today, we're joined by Shirley Wu, senior director of software engineering at Juniper Networks to discuss how machine learning and artificial intelligence are transforming network management. We explore various use cases where AI and ML are applied to enhance the quality, performance, and efficiency of networks across Juniper's customers, including diagnosing cable degradation, proactive monitoring for coverage gaps, and real-time fault detection. We also dig into the complexities of integrating data science into networking, the trade-offs between traditional methods and ML-based solutions, the role of feature engineering and data in networking, the applicability of large language models, and Juniper's approach to using smaller, specialized ML models to optimize speed, latency, and cost. Finally, Shirley shares some future directions for Juniper Mist such as proactive network testing and end-user self-service.

AT&T has decided enough is enough. They have filed a lawsuit over the tactics they claim are putting first responders and critical government services at risk. AT&T is claiming breach of contract because of the new support policy enacted by Broadcom after the VMware acquisition. The key point comes in an amendment in their support agreement that says that AT&T can renew their current support contracts for up to two more years provided they do so before the expiration of their current contract. They are exercising that option now but VMware by Broadcom is not honoring the renewal. AT&T stated they don't have an issue with the business model change, just that it affects them right now and is making them pay more.
