About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Riding the Latest Bitcoin Wave: 4 Crypto Stocks Surging Higher

As the digital currency giant Bitcoin stages an impressive rally and surges beyond the $64,500 mark, excitement and anticipation have again begun to grip market participants. The cryptocurrency market's volatility and thrill continue to captivate seasoned investors and curious newcomers. 

While Bitcoin grabs headlines, crypto-related stocks offer an alternative path into this realm. These stocks provide an alternative avenue to gain exposure to the industry without diving directly into virtual currencies.

But First, Why Is Bitcoin Rallying?

The latest CPI data, which came in below expectations last week, has sparked the current Bitcoin rally. This suggests inflation might be cooling off, raising hopes for potential Fed rate cuts. Lower rates generally benefit high-risk assets like cryptos. Additionally, political developments are adding to the momentum. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump named Sen. J.D. Vance as his running mate. Vance, a former venture capitalist, is seen as crypto-friendly, further boosting investor sentiment.

Four Crypto Stocks Gaining Attention Amidst Bitcoin's Latest Price Surge

1. Marathon Digital Holdings

Marathon Digital Holdings (NASDAQ: MARA), based in Las Vegas, focuses on Bitcoin mining. Initially a patent company, it rebranded in 2020 and partnered with a Montana coal plant for mining power. Led by CEO Fred Thiel, the team comprises finance and tech experts.

MARA started this week with a bang, surging close to 20% on Monday. This move made its stock positive year-to-date, now up close to 5%. Notably, MARA also broke out of consolidation above all major moving averages. If Bitcoin remains firm and continues its steady move, MARA might outperform in the short term due to its lengthy consolidation breakout and hefty short interest.

2. iShares Bitcoin Trust

iShares Bitcoin Trust (NASDAQ: IBIT) is an exchange-traded fund that primarily invests in long Bitcoin and short USD currency positions. Launched on January 5, 2024, and issued by BlackRock, IBIT is a passively managed fund that seeks to track the spot price of Bitcoin. IBIT found support near $32 last week and surged over 10% on Monday to reclaim its 20-day SMA.

3. CleanSpark, Inc.

CleanSpark, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLSK) focuses on Bitcoin mining and creating eco-friendly setups for it. Based in Henderson, Nevada, the company aims to make Bitcoin more accessible for financial freedom and inclusion. 

CLSK was up an impressive 15.46% on Monday. From a technical analysis perspective, CLSK is consolidating in a significant bullish pattern, with resistance and breakout confirmation near $20. If Bitcoin continues to rally and CLSK reclaims that zone, major upside might ensue. Like MARA, CLSK also has a hefty short interest.

4. Coinbase Global, Inc.

Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ: COIN) is a leading cryptocurrency exchange providing various digital asset trading services. The retail favorite was up an impressive 11.3% on Monday, thanks to Bitcoin's strength and overall market resilience. 

On a higher timeframe, shares of Coinbase look ripe for a significant breakout after Monday's action, as the stock broke out of a multi-week consolidation and its 50-day and 20-day SMA. A higher timeframe breakout would be confirmed if the stock can break above $260 in the near term. However, the company is set to report earnings on August 1, which might significantly influence its overall direction.

Balancing Caution and Opportunity in Crypto Stock Investments

As Bitcoin reclaims critical levels and rebounds firmly, several leading crypto-related names are following suit, with some breaking out of significant and bullish consolidations. These stocks provide an alternative way to engage with the crypto market without directly handling digital assets. However, the cryptocurrency market's volatility demands caution and research. Before exploring these opportunities, it's prudent to understand the risks and dynamics of this ever-evolving space.
