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.

Zillow (ZG) Stock Is Up, What You Need To Know

ZG Cover Image

What Happened?

Shares of online real estate marketplace Zillow (NASDAQ: ZG) jumped 3.5% in the morning session after Bernstein upgraded the stock to 'Outperform' from 'Market Perform' and significantly raised its price target. 

Analyst Nikhil Devnani boosted the price target to $105 from a previous $75. The upgrade reflected strong confidence in the company's outlook, as the firm cited expectations for mid-teens revenue growth and contributions from new business segments as key factors. This wave of optimism helped push the stock to a new 52-week high, underscoring positive investor sentiment surrounding Zillow's strategic direction.

After the initial pop the shares cooled down to $88.11, up 3.5% from previous close.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Zillow’s shares are somewhat volatile and have had 11 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 6 days ago when the stock gained 4.2% on the news that the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report came in largely as expected, reinforcing investor hopes for an upcoming Federal Reserve interest rate cut. 

Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed headline inflation for August at a 2.9% annual rate, with core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, holding steady at 3.1%. While inflation remains above the Federal Reserve's target, Wall Street interpreted the figures as not being high enough to prevent a widely anticipated rate reduction at the central bank's meeting next week. Analysts note that the Fed's focus has shifted toward the risks of a cooling labor market. With this report being the last key data point before the meeting, the market's conviction for a rate cut strengthened, fueling a broad rally that pushed major U.S. stock indexes to record highs.

Zillow is up 25.7% since the beginning of the year, and at $88.11 per share, has set a new 52-week high. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Zillow’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $918.10.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.
