Cisco in charts: FQ4 '26 Networking, Collaboration, and Security post double-digit Y/Y growth; regional revenue growth led by EMEA and Americas
Cisco achieved double-digit Y/Y growth in its networking, collaboration, and security segments in FQ4 '26, driving revenue growth in the EMEA and Americas regions.
Entry considered near the opening price of $110.32 on 2026-09-02, following the positive FQ4 '26 growth catalyst. Price had risen from $109.74 on 2026-09-01, but RSI at 69.9 approached overbought levels, and 20-day average volume was 0.81x, suggesting below-average participation. Decision weighed these technical readings against the news-driven momentum.
Were I to enter at the predicted time, I would consider taking profit if price reaches $124.71, and cutting loss if it declines to $107.53.

A divergence occurred between the forecast of +1.5% and the actual result of -11.4%, with the price falling despite positive news. The RSI stood at 69.9, indicating an overheated uptrend, but the 20-day average volume was weak at 0.81x, and the price broke below the stop-loss level of $107.53, confirming the loss. The positive news appears to have been partially priced in, or the stock met resistance near its recent high of $112.5 and turned downward.
For future trades, first check whether the RSI is in overbought territory after news announcements and whether this is accompanied by volume confirmation. Set the stop-loss price flexibly based on the recent swing low, and cultivate the habit of waiting for volume flow without excessive expectations.
