據(jù)報道，美國思科公司8月10日發(fā)布了最新的財務報告，由于企業(yè)客戶對其網(wǎng)絡設備的需求在不斷增長，在于7月31日結(jié)束的第四財季中，思科的季度收益比上個季度上漲了41%，凈利潤為14億美元。第三財季，曾有投資者對思科的庫存大幅增長表示不安。但思科高層在5月份表示這不是什么大問題。外電有這樣的報道：The
firm's shares lost more than 5% during after-hours electronic trading in
New York. But chief executive John Chambers played down the concerns over
future prospects. "In the things we can control, I feel good," he said.
Play down表示“對……不太重視；降低重要性；貶低”例如：The doctor played down the serious nature
of the poor man's illness.（醫(yī)生把這個可憐人的病情講得輕些。）
