It offers future-proof scale for long-term growth and investment protecting upgrade paths for existing MX Series customers.
Juniper is capitalizing on the growing demand for data center virtualization, cloud computing and mobile traffic packet/optical convergence.
The company designed the platform for unparalleled performance, scale and freedom of choice, with improved agility.
Share Price Performance
Juniper has introduced several products and enhancements over the last few years. We consider this to be a real differentiator, which gives it a competitive advantage.
The company is expected to benefit from the higher spending pattern among carriers to upgrade their networks to support the incremental growth in data traffic.
Over the past three months, Juniper’s shares have outperformed the industry with an average return of 6.4% compared with 2% growth for the latter.
Zacks Rank and Stocks to Consider
Juniper currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Better-ranked stocks in the industry include Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (CMTL - Free Report) , Motorola Solutions, Inc. (MSI - Free Report) and Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. . While Comtech sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), Motorola and Ubiquiti carry a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
Comtech has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 5%. It beat earnings estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, the average being 123.7%.
Motorola has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 8%. It beat earnings estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, the average being 12.1%.
Ubiquiti has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 18.6%. It exceeded earnings estimates thrice in the trailing four quarters with an average positive surprise of 8.9%.
The Hottest Tech Mega-Trend of All
Last year, it generated $8 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $47 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce "the world's first trillionaires," but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
