Cisco Statement on Inclusion in the Dow Jones Industrial Average


Cisco is honored to be included in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.  We believe our inclusion in the Dow demonstrates not only Cisco’s role as a broad technology indicator, but how remarkably the Internet and networking have transformed the way businesses and consumers connect, communicate and collaborate.

Hi John,

Thanks for the very nice video link…enjoyed it.

I have a couple suggestions for possible ‘takeovers’ for Cisco to look at.

#1. UTStarcom, Inc (UTSI) ~ They have a big ‘foothold’ in china when it comes to IPTV services…maybe a good outlet for Scientific Atlantic,s…IPTV Set Top Boxs etc… Cisco really needs to step up here…China = Growth.

#2. SeaChange International (SEAC) ~ Some Amazing digital video systems and services. Would be a huge complement to Cisco’s current products and services.

Just..IMHO


Thanks again for your post of the Video.


Best,
