In the following video, The Motley Fool's Alison Southwick talks with Fool.com contributor Tim Beyers about Cisco (CSCO 0.55%), and the lackluster market reaction to the company's earnings report. Though the company improved revenue by 5% and non-GAAP earnings per share by 8.5%, the stock has risen by only a mere 1% since earnings were released last week. Tim tells us what's behind the weak reaction and where Cisco plans to go from here.
