Cisco is riding a powerful AI networking demand wave, with orders from hyperscalers accelerating and the stock up 32% in a month. However, the rally has pushed valuation to a 24% P/E premium vs. peers, while FY25 EPS of $2.55 remains below FY23 levels and net debt has ballooned to $28.1B. Consistent insider selling (over $183M net disposed in 24 months) and an RSI above 75 warn that enthusiasm may have outstripped near‑term fundamentals, making current levels a hold rather than a fresh buying opportunity.
