Also in the news...
Network infrastructure products provider QLogic (NASDAQ: QLGC ) may have ended the week higher by about 1%, but it certainly got no help from Morgan Stanley, which downgraded the company to underweight from equal weight, and cut its price target to $9. Morgan Stanley cited the expectation of weak enterprise server demand in relation to businesses shifting to cloud providers as its reasoning for the downgrade. As a shareholder, I'm not too concerned, because of QLogic's hefty cash position, steady profits, and ability to stay on the leading edge of the innovative curve.
