AND S & P 500 It is located in the middle of a market set, which lasted for more than two years and continues to defy the negatives. Solid economic look, growing corporate profit and huge potential Artificial intelligence (AI) They all helped to encourage market progress. After receiving 24% in 2023, the reference values accepted the winning of 23% in 2024. The market history suggests that S&P is likely to continue to increase at the age of 2025.
In the last 50 years, the S&P 500 has achieved positive yields of 78% of the time. In addition, after years with consecutive gains greater than 20%, the S&P has increased by 12%, the average, which suggests that it is still progressing.
There was also an increase in the popularity of the division of the shares, which is why investors review the companies that shared their shares, because this corporate action historically preceded strong operational and financial results, helping to increase the price of shares.
Let’s review two companies with impressive records worth a look.

The first long -term investors who should watch is Aristor Network(Nyse: anet). The shares have received 66% in the last year and has increased 2,880% in the last decade (from this writing). This effect encouraged management to carry out the division of stock 4-not-1 shares, which was completed in December. Despite the long records of the company, the appearance of the generative AI a few years ago is a convincing opportunity that has just begun.
Aristor Networks claims that fame was the development of revolutionary network switches that connect high speeds and other devices with a close response time online. The company now boasts a whole bid package that includes switches, routers and other network used to accelerate data between the server, data centers and over networks. Aristor recently developed adapted Ethernet systems intended to satisfy the strict demands of large linguistic models (LLMS) that make up the foundation of AI.
IN Third quarterAristor made an income of $ 1.8 billion, which is 20% more than a year and 7% consecutively. This earnings per share (EPS) of $ 2.33, which is an increase of 35%. Results easily exceeded Wall Street expectations and Previously issued guidelines of administration. The shareholders are looking forward to a similar effect when Aristo announces his results in the fourth quarter after the market closure on Tuesday, February 18th.
As the bull market is still working, investors become more aware of growing estimates. Aristor Networks is currently selling for 56 times earnings, which would make supplies unattractive for some investors. However, its price/earning ratio to growth (PEG) -Metry, which is more suitable for high-growth sections, adds to 0.95, when any number is less than 1 standard for underrated supplies.
Ethernet and the expertise of the data center makes it a key player in the AI Revolution. Add to that arista Networks’ long history of successful execution and its reasonable assessment and clearly why stock is shopping.
Other companies investors should have in their choice is Networks fell alto(Nasdaq: Panw). Stocks are basically flat in the last year, but in the last decade (of this writing) is 813%. The long history of the performance of this company has encouraged the management to declare the division of shares 2-Z-1, which was completed late last year. The cyber-security company made a strategic business decision last year that sent investors with FER-Time Standing for Exodus and is an opportunity.
Most companies have a cyber security system that is together with various suppliers, leaving the gaps that the hackers can use. The resulting data violations and unauthorized intrusion can cost these companies millions of dollars and loss of customer trust. Palo alto addressed this problem by combining its individual modules into a unique protective platform integrated with AI. In order to contract further, Palo Alto offered free services to make Brdigeo gap for customers (and potential customers) who had obligations with multiple suppliers and different contracts expiration.
This strategy was risky, but the management reports showed early success. Customers “signed larger transactions” in response to these changes, which “provide better security outcomes” according to Director of Nikesh Arora. Customers have a “significant incentive” to use with a full package of the company: safety operations, cloud safety and network safety.
During his fiscal first quarter 2025 (October 31), the fell Alto returned to growing before expected, achieving a revenue that rose 14% of the year to $ 2.1 billion, resulting in EPS that rose for 77% at $ 0.99. Even more, annual repetitive revenue from the next generation of the company’s safety services increased by $ 40% to $ 4.5 billion. This is proof that the change of administration strategy achieves success.
Investors rely on the most commonly used measuring values of value assessment can be disposed of, as the shares are sold for 51 times of earnings (from this writing). However, its 0.15 ratio of 0.15 is a clear indication that Alto Networks has fallen cheaper than it looks.
