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.

Angi, Yelp, Udemy, Shutterstock, and Lyft Shares Are Falling, What You Need To Know

ANGI Cover Image

What Happened?

A number of stocks fell in the afternoon session after investors took a breather following a record-setting rally, with concerns over the Federal Reserve's next move and a prolonged government shutdown weighing on sentiment. 

The pullback came as the U.S. government shutdown extended into its second week, creating uncertainty in the market. Investors were also closely watching for signals from the Federal Reserve regarding its monetary policy. This combination of factors led to a cautious mood on Wall Street, causing traders to pause and reassess their positions after weeks of significant gains. Adding to the unease, Chief Economist at Moody's Analytics, Mark Zandi, warned that 22 states are already showing clear signs of a recession, placing the broader U.S. economy in a precarious position.

The stock market overreacts to news, and big price drops can present good opportunities to buy high-quality stocks.

Among others, the following stocks were impacted:

Zooming In On Angi (ANGI)

Angi’s shares are very volatile and have had 25 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 27 days ago when the stock dropped 4.4% on the news that a key competitor in the home services marketplace, Urban Company, launched its Initial Public Offering (IPO). 

Urban Company, which connects customers with a wide range of service providers, began its IPO on Wednesday, September 10. The emergence of a new publicly traded competitor in the same space can create pressure on existing players like Angi. Investors may be concerned about increased competition for both market share and investment capital, as Urban Company is being described as potentially the only listed company of its specific type. This new entry into the public markets appears to be prompting a re-evaluation of Angi's competitive position.

Angi is down 10.2% since the beginning of the year, and at $14.55 per share, it is trading 44.5% below its 52-week high of $26.20 from November 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Angi’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $114.20.

Here at StockStory, we certainly understand the potential of thematic investing. Diverse winners from Microsoft (MSFT) to Alphabet (GOOG), Coca-Cola (KO) to Monster Beverage (MNST) could all have been identified as promising growth stories with a megatrend driving the growth. So, in that spirit, we’ve identified a relatively under-the-radar profitable growth stock benefiting from the rise of AI, available to you FREE via this link.
