NTNX: Smallest beat despite a solid IT spending quarter;

Reiterate SELL: Following Nutanix’s F2Q18 quarter we raise our PT to $25 but reiterate our SELL rating. Almost all IT Hardware and most of the Software vendors reported solid quarter. Even companies such as HPE, Cisco and IBM reported very good numbers. Given this scenario, I was hoping for a big blowout quarter. Did not happen!. Maybe it is the competition that is intensifying and maybe HCI is not a panacea for many data center woes, as people are made to believe. Either way, not an impressive quarter however we dice it.
