Of course I'm waiting 😃 one of my bigger positions...

I confess I didn't know this company. However, I will definitely keep an eye on the results and share price.

I have the company in my portfolio, but I don't expect any big surprises. It's such a quality bore, where they still hold the dominant position in providing internet infrastructure since dot com, but basically nobody cares anymore;)

I'm not waiting for $CSCO, in fact I almost didn't even know it existed until we started using Cisco routers.

Do you expect growth or rather a decline in profits?
