Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO)
Technology · Communication Equipment · Data as of 2026-10-22
Bottom line
CSCO is trading at a premium to its history, in the middle of its recent price range, and recent volume shows no clear direction. The picture is mixed, so it may be worth watching rather than acting on. Past patterns are not a guarantee of future results.
Valuation — Trading at a premium (Red)
CSCO trades at 32× earnings, above its own 5-year average of 20× and roughly in line with similar technology companies we track (31×, 86 peers). Investors are currently paying more per dollar of earnings than usual. Its free-cash-flow yield is about 3.2%. Growth is slower than its 3-year pace, which deserves some caution. Its current multiple sits around the 89th percentile of its own last five years — near the top of its own range.
Price zones — In the middle of its recent range (Yellow)
At $104.89, the stock sits between its recent support and resistance levels. Over the past year CSCO has traded between $69.85 and $130.37; its historical support zone sits near $100.16 and resistance near $110.37. It is above one of its moving averages and below the other — a mixed trend picture.
52-week range $69.85–$130.37 · 50-day average $110.37 · 200-day average $100.16
Money flow — No clear direction (Yellow)
Buying and selling volume in CSCO have been fairly balanced recently, with no strong accumulation or distribution pattern. Volume on up days has been about 0.9× volume on down days over the last 30 sessions.
Dividends & company facts
CSCO paid $1.67 a share in dividends over the past year — 1.6% of today's price — and has raised it in each of the last five years. It also bought back shares: $5.3 billion in fiscal 2026, about 1.2% of its market value.

一句话结论
CSCO 相对自身历史处于溢价水平，处于近期价格区间的中部，近期成交量没有明确方向。整体情况好坏参半，也许更适合先观察，而不是急于行动。过去的形态并不能保证未来的结果。
估值 — 相对自身历史处于溢价水平
CSCO 目前的市盈率为 32×，高于其自身 5 年平均的 20×，并且大致持平于我们追踪的同类Technology公司（31×，86 家）。投资者目前为每一美元盈利付出的价格高于以往。其自由现金流收益率约为 3.2%。增速已慢于其 3 年的平均步伐，这一点值得留意。它当前的估值倍数大约位于自身过去五年分布的第 89 百分位——接近自身区间的顶部。
价格区间 — 处于近期区间的中部
目前价格为 $104.89，位于其近期的支撑位与阻力位之间。过去一年 CSCO 的价格在 $69.85 到 $130.37 之间波动；其历史支撑区在 $100.16 附近，阻力区在 $110.37 附近。它位于其中一条均线上方、另一条下方——趋势信号并不一致。
资金流向 — 方向不明确
CSCO 近期的买卖成交量大致均衡，没有明显的吸筹或派发形态。过去 30 个交易日，上涨日的成交量约为下跌日的 0.9×。
股息与公司概况
CSCO 过去一年每股派息 1.67 美元，相当于当前股价的 1.6%，过去五年每年都有上调。它也回购了股票：2026 财年回购 53.0亿美元，约占市值的 1.2%。
