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 Amentum (AMTM) Stock Is Up Today

AMTM Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of government engineering solutions provider Amentum Holdings (NYSE: AMTM) jumped 3.2% in the morning session after the company received price target upgrades from multiple Wall Street analysts, including BofA Securities and Goldman Sachs. BofA Securities raised its price target to $27 from $26, highlighting the market premium given to Amentum for its 'nuclear exposure.' This refers to the company's work in the nuclear market, which is increasingly seen as a key solution for powering energy-intensive artificial intelligence (AI) data centers. Goldman Sachs also boosted its price target to $26 from $21. While BofA maintained a Neutral rating, it acknowledged Amentum's diverse portfolio and improving free cash flow. The positive analyst actions add to recent reports of growing interest from institutional investors, signaling broader confidence in the company's strategic positioning.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $26.43, up 3.1% from previous close.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Amentum’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 33 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 7 days ago when the stock dropped 3.3% on the news that the company reported third-quarter financial results that included a significant miss on GAAP earnings per share, even as revenue surpassed expectations. The government engineering solutions provider announced revenue of $3.56 billion, which edged past analysts' forecasts. However, the company's GAAP profit of just $0.04 per share fell 73.3% short of consensus estimates. GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, is a standard method for financial reporting. While the firm's adjusted earnings, which excluded certain one-time items, did top expectations, investors appeared to focus on the substantial miss in standard profitability. The company also slightly lifted its revenue guidance for the full year.

Amentum is up 22% since the beginning of the year, but at $26.43 per share, it is still trading 20.9% below its 52-week high of $33.40 from November 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Amentum’s shares at the IPO in September 2024 would now be looking at an investment worth $895.61.

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.
