Wall Street has seen dramatic volatility in 2025, affected by high inflation across several major economies, escalating U.S.-China trade wars, and rising geopolitical tensions. While the U.S. equity market has somewhat stabilized, investors remain concerned about the Federal Reserve's hawkish tone about future rate cuts and softening consumer demand.

I maintain a Buy rating on Arista, despite potential margin dents from tariffs and trade wars, due to strong data center demand. 1Q25 results may not be a catalyst, with a QoQ 9% net income decline and 21% drop in free cash flow due to lower margins. Hyperscaler capex is projected to increase 50% in 2025, supporting ANET's growth, though margins may face pressure.
