About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: 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.

Why BJ's (BJ) Stock Is Trading Up Today

BJ Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of membership-only discount retailer BJ’s Wholesale Club (NYSE: BJ) jumped 11.7% in the morning session after the company reported strong third-quarter results which blew past analysts' EPS expectations. Full-year EPS guidance was also raised, which is promising. While sales were in line with expectations, management called out some encouraging demand indicators as it hit a milestone of 7.5 million Club members. The company also announced plans for the first membership fee increase in seven years, effective January 1, 2025. The fee increase should boost sales and margins if demand trends maintain the improved momentum. Overall, we think this was still a solid quarter with some key areas of upside, especially after Target (NYSE: TGT) missed badly the previous day.

What The Market Is Telling Us

BJ’s shares are not very volatile and have only had 3 moves greater than 5% over the last year. Moves this big are rare for BJ's and indicate this news significantly impacted the market’s perception of the business.

The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 9 months ago when the stock gained 8.7% on the news that the company reported fourth-quarter results that slightly topped analysts' EPS expectations. On the other hand, its full-year earnings forecast missed analysts' expectations. Revenue also missed by a narrow margin during the quarter. Regardless, management remained positive as the company continued to record strong membership growth alongside market share gains in clubs and pumps due to "acceleration in traffic and growth in units sold." Overall, the results were mixed, with the market likely shrugging off the negatives.

BJ's is up 38.9% since the beginning of the year, and at $93.50 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of BJ’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $3,922.
