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.

1 Surging Stock Worth Your Attention and 2 to Brush Off

SNOW Cover Image

Great things are happening to the stocks in this article. They’re all outperforming the market over the last month because of positive catalysts such as a new product line, constructive news flow, or even a loyal Reddit fanbase.

While momentum can be a leading indicator, it has burned many investors as it doesn’t always correlate with long-term success. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock with the fundamentals to back up its performance and two best left ignored.

Two Momentum Stocks to Sell:

Bumble (BMBL)

One-Month Return: +46.4%

Started by the co-founder of Tinder, Whitney Wolfe Herd, Bumble (NASDAQ: BMBL) is a leading dating app built with women at the center.

Why Does BMBL Fall Short?

  1. Customer spending has dipped by 4.9% on average as it focused on growing its buyers
  2. Sales are projected to tank by 10.9% over the next 12 months as demand evaporates
  3. 4.4 percentage point decline in its free cash flow margin over the last few years reflects the company’s increased investments to defend its market position

Bumble’s stock price of $5.84 implies a valuation ratio of 2.5x forward EV/EBITDA. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why BMBL doesn’t pass our bar.

Carlisle (CSL)

One-Month Return: +13.1%

Originally founded as Carlisle Tire and Rubber Company, Carlisle Companies (NYSE: CSL) is a multi-industry product manufacturer focusing on construction materials and weatherproofing technologies.

Why Do We Think Twice About CSL?

  1. Flat sales over the last two years suggest it must find different ways to grow during this cycle
  2. Absence of organic revenue growth over the past two years suggests it may have to lean into acquisitions to drive its expansion
  3. Demand will likely be soft over the next 12 months as Wall Street’s estimates imply tepid growth of 5.1%

At $401.02 per share, Carlisle trades at 17.7x forward P/E. If you’re considering CSL for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.

One Momentum Stock to Watch:

Snowflake (SNOW)

One-Month Return: +24.5%

Founded in 2013 by three French engineers who spent decades working for Oracle, Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW) provides a data warehouse-as-a-service in the cloud that allows companies to store large amounts of data and analyze it in real time.

Why Should SNOW Be on Your Watchlist?

  1. Winning new contracts that can potentially increase in value as its billings growth has averaged 20.1% over the last year
  2. High switching costs and customer loyalty are evident in its net revenue retention rate of 127%
  3. Revenue outlook for the upcoming 12 months is outstanding and shows it’s on track to gain market share

Snowflake is trading at $180 per share, or 13.4x forward price-to-sales. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
