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 Calavo (CVGW) Stock Is Trading Up Today

CVGW Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of fresh produce company Calavo Growers (NASDAQ: CVGW) jumped 9.5% in the morning session after the company announced it received an acquisition offer valued at $32 per share, a significant premium to its previous closing price. The board of directors planned to review the offer, which involved a combination of stock and cash from an unnamed bidder. If the offer is accepted and the deal is completed, this should allow existing shareholders to exit their current positions at a higher price.

What The Market Is Telling Us

Calavo’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 13 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 2 days ago when the stock dropped 17.3% on the news that the company reported weak first-quarter 2025 (fiscal Q2) results, which fell short of Wall Street's estimates across all key metrics, including sales, operating profit, and earnings per share. Top-line growth benefited from higher average avocado prices, which offset a year-on-year decline in volume. The volume decline was attributed to constrained supply out of Mexico and USDA inspection delays. Looking ahead, management expects volume growth to pick up, driven by new customer wins and expanded programs with existing accounts, as well as continued strength from the California avocado season. Overall, this quarter could have been better.

Calavo is up 1.5% since the beginning of the year, but at $25.89 per share, it is still trading 12.7% below its 52-week high of $29.64 from September 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Calavo’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $449.71.

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.
