BeStock Grade
Composite of 4 factors below, ranked against the 3741 U.S. stocks BeStock covers.
Cheaper than usual on its own 5-year P/E history scores higher.
Higher trailing yield than most of BeStock’s coverage scores higher.
Trading closer to its 52-week high than most peers scores higher.
17 analysts, consensus Buy.
How this is scored: each factor above is a 0–100 percentile rank against every other stock BeStock covers (or, for Wall Street, against the five-point Strong Buy–Sell scale). The overall grade is the plain average of whichever factors apply to this stock — no factor is weighted more than another. That average maps to a letter: A ≥ 85, B ≥ 70, C ≥ 50, D ≥ 30, otherwise F. Recomputed from the data on this page as prices and filings update — it describes where a stock ranks today, not a forecast, and not a BeStock recommendation to buy or sell.

CSCO is not currently one of the 10 holdings in BeStock Momentum, our rules-based momentum strategy.

What Wall Street analysts and Morningstar's fair-value model expect for the stock
Wall Street’s average 12-month target is $138.47, 47.5% above today’s price, with a consensus rating of Buy. Morningstar’s fair value model puts the stock at $115.00, so shares trade 18.4% below that estimate.

Figures are Wall Street analyst consensus and Morningstar’s independent fair-value model, sourced as noted above.
Cisco: the business
Cisco makes network switches, routers, security products and collaboration tools, and it owns Splunk.
What tends to move it. Orders from data-center customers, the shift toward software subscriptions and the Splunk integration are the themes.
Where the case gets weaker. Data-center spending pausing would hit order volumes for switches and routers, and the shift toward software subscriptions changes how revenue is recognized in ways that can make growth look choppier, while Splunk's integration still carries execution risk.
