Would you rather fall into a pit of scorpions, or use a HP printer?

Adobe inverses memory and HP has has an insane run over the past 6mo so some profit taking, Would consider HPQ as a weaker AI trade to HPE and adobe the opposite.

chilla_p

I agree, it's not an organic company, so it has baked it's own special sauce / source (mind the pun). The other big tech built their own kingdom and generally if they did acquire, baked their acquisitions in their special sauce. Broadcom is like (was) HP or SoftBank.

MaterialGuy007

AI 25% growth trade is over! China will make sure - they will sell servers from Singapore Korea Taiwan to deplete American companies like Dell, HP and boost Chinese chips!!! After all all these are built in China - just like Tesla-beat!!!

HP is a value stock with good fundamentals so yeah. Now probably too late to enter as upside is priced in

What about Dell or Intel or HP?

CyGoingPro

Does apple produce it's own memory and other hardware or is it relying on manufacturing from factories that are upping their prices? If apple's own manufacturing capabilities protect it from inflationary shocks, then they don't need to pass through the costs to their end consumer. If it is cheaper to buy a MacBook than an HP because one is more resilient to manufacturimg cost increases then I would expect that their market share will keep growing at an accelerated pace.

**I’M GOING ALL IN ON PRINTER INK** You idiots are buying NVDA and SPY while the government is literally printing money like there’s no tomorrow. And what does a printer need? **INK.** Every trillion dollars they print = more ink. Deficit? **INK.** Stimulus? **INK.** $5,000 checks if Republicans win? **MOTHERFUCKING INK.** So I sold my portfolio and went balls deep into printer ink stocks and calls. My wife asked why. I told her, “The money printer is going brrrr.” She said, “That doesn't make any sense.” **She doesn't understand macro.** Everyone laughed at the gourd guy. They won't be laughing when I'm sitting on a mountain of HP cartridges worth $4.7 billion. **$INK 🚀🚀🚀** Not financial advice. I am an idiot.

HP got their shit together like 7 years ago luckily. Consumer AMD and Nvidia has always been top tier too, they really put their souls into those video cards. Intel can suck a fat one though, been lacking since they stopped making the Pentium.

HP printers are produced by HPQ... Not HPE...

Wow I wonder what would happen if you start buying high end Nikes... This is like the people comparing $500 HP laptops to $2000 MacBooks and are like wow Macs are so much better than PCs!

cbusoh66

They didn't hire a CEO from HP. He was Chairman of the Board and after they kicked out Alex Chriss, he took over, with the intention to break up the company like he did with HP (broke it up into HPQ and HPE). I will bet my left nut that someone is interested in Venmo (they reorganized the business into 3 units and separated Venmo) and then these idiots from Stripe thought they can swoop in and buy the entire company for pennies on the dollar. If they sell Venmo for $15-$20 billion, and keep the Paypal and Braintree big cash generating businesses, they will be in triple digits sometimes early 2027.

Unoriginal-Cake

Part costs are going wild is why the market is looking ugly so even shorting stock is risky in any tech sector, I looked up several monitors of Dell and they've moved 15% higher on the "Pro" series so PC parts aren't the only thing lowering expectations. Earnings reports are going to get uglier even if demand for Windows 11 gear by workplaces to replace Win10 stuff. Dell could break records of volume sales due to Win10 EOL, yet the cost of everything is going to influence the P/E ratio on a 52 week range and folks compute future earnings based on "costs factors". Keep in mind if a workplace is paying close to Dell volume sales on a Dell Pro 16 with 32GB RAM / 1TB SSD under $1700, Dell is only making about $100-150 per unit order before extended warranty or SonicWall gear upsells as those models include a 3yr onsite warranty. If QA tanks like COVID/1yr after COVID the warranties lose a ton of money. I've seen some corp ordering from doing office orders with several solutions providers and the order delays are matching similar concerns at Apple reaching near 2-3month delays--Cook said several warnings and he was the person that consolidated Apple in 1998 to regain profits from 10yrs of 1 million+ losses year to year so trust a CFO that became a CEO based on those metrics. Dell is more than likely following the Apple product line consolidation strategy to survive. This is what happened in the Dotcom era, speculation/rapid growth and consolidation of product lines by Dell and HP to streamline their parts supply channels--Apple went the four product lines in 2000(two consumer and two prosumer in the same way until RAM prices went back to normal). Look at the current consumer lineup of Dell, they hedged the 13XPS hard knowing most consumers will use that to survive the Win10 EOL cheaply just like Apple launched the Neo to fill the mainstream price gap. I'd only expect Dell gets a boost in the earnings report from sales as most people in the office realm are ordering 8-24 PCs in a quarterly refresh cycle based on build delays. In my sector there is a rumored max order of 1000 13XPS 16GB models from this year reaching to late 2027/early 2028 so Dell likely expects that level of orders. This matches what I wrote above of Win10 EOL pushes workplaces to go "minimalist" until prices go back to normal.

> I swear half of Reddit thinks people run LLMs on their HP thinkpad. Well they wouldn't be too wrong. Edge LLMs are increasingly viable, see the latest news about Qwen 3.8 27B which puches way above its weight in coding tasks and can actually be run on consumer computers. Of course data centres will still be king, but as open source models continue to be powerful and accessible, they will eat into the data centre market share. I'm now speculating to which extent, but it's a factor which can't be discounted. PS : Thinkpads are made by Lenovo

xgeetx

And even if open source wins, compute still has costs. Nvidia doesn’t give a fuck what you’re training or what model you’re running. I swear half of Reddit thinks people run LLMs on their HP thinkpad.

Micron, Samsung, SK sell directly to the companies that integrate the memory module into a finished component, not to the ultimate owner of the device. For **HBM**, the main direct buyers are companies like **NVIDIA and AMD**, which package the memory with their GPUs and then sell these products into servers purchased by end users (Microsoft, **Google**, Meta, Amazon, etc). Technically, these end users also often make their own TPUs, so they do purchase HBM, but at a negligible volume. For **ordinary DRAM**, the main buyers are **device and system manufacturers** (Apple, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Xiaomi, BBK, etc). In this category, **Apple** is probably the single largest global customer, given the enormous volume of memory it buys for iPhones, Macs, and other devices that occupy the premium market class. Google may purchase from CXMT, but they hardly make a dent. If CXMT cannot secure large volume orders, they’ll have to cut margins to sell to smaller customers, never accruING the profits to then compete in the next CapEx cycle against Micron, Samsung, SK. Securing a massive order from Apple can basically ensure that they’re flush with cash to compete. That’s what Apple has consistently done, primarily supporting Chinese/Taiwanese manufacturers to develop and compete at against established companies. It’s hard to understate just how much cash Apple moves around in this industry.

Only 838 HP? I need at least 900 to pick up my groceries. I guess I better save that $2 million for something else.

Yeah seems to be some hot garbage considering the fact that my first search result shows people complaining about how ass it is. Yet it's somehow worth 50bn or 2 HP's (A company that earns 2.5bn vs Workday's 500m in 2025 😭)

MakingMoneyIsMe

>This isn't a typical datacenter we are talking about here where you buy your HP or Dell server and put it in a rack bud. What information is out there that suggests this? Server hard drives is one of the most replaced components.

TrackMan5891

No, they don't break "all day every day" LMAO. They aren't Machines. They are electronic devices, there no moving parts on the devices themselves. This isn't a typical datacenter we are talking about here where you buy your HP or Dell server and put it in a rack bud.

yogaflame1337

AI is like internet access’ is exactly what [Pets.com](http://Pets.com) investors said right before the sock puppet filed Chapter 11. Using a free chatbot to summarize emails does not automatically mean it can generate enough profit to justify trillion-dollar valuations, GPU capex that could power a small nation, and every company slapping ‘AI’ on a PowerPoint. Congrats: people enjoy free stuff. Next you’ll tell me every office has a printer, therefore HP stock must be worth the GDP of Earth

TreGet234

Fucking HP flat since 2017 but now ripping like a cutting edge tech stock.

derprondo

That seems really excessive unless your pump is as big as mine, it's a 2HP grinder, which was $2000 + $700 in labor so exactly the same. If you have a normal size .5-.75HP pump I think those are about $1000+ less. Hah so while we're on the subject my sewer line busted last week and that was only $1850 and they had to bring in a subcontractor with an excavator for 4 hours.

Interesting call. If HP, ASUS, and Acer are already validating CXMT's DRAM, the story is way more real than most people realize.

HP was founded in 30s. These companies do not last forever but cycles don’t have to be as short as 20 or 30 years.

Unimportant numbers don't matter. A Ferrari Purosangue makes 730 HP. That's a number but it doesn't matter. But if you want numbers that do matter... *Right now 30 year treasury bonds yield over 5.2%. and inflation protected bonds yield over 3%.* The S&P 500 has returned an average of 10.3% over the past 30 years. If you have a small nest egg, locking in a sure 5.2% may be ideal because you have a strict budget that you can rely on but if you have a larger one, having a few years in safe bonds etc. but keeping the majority of your money in the one that yields almost twice as much will bring you a lot more money. What percentage of that is dividends DOES NOT MATTER in almost all cases. Owning identical stocks where one has a 3% yearly dividend vs one that has no dividend and selling 3% of it is functionally the same. *you brought feels. amazing that you still replied 😂* And you brought absolutely nothing to the table other than being insulting.

AshingiiAshuaa

I have an HP Reverb G2. It was $500 a few years ago then they kind of stopped supporting it for the last year. Lame.

homewest

HP is still around. Google says it has had a 50,000+% of growth over that time and says it’s higher than the S&P 500 over the same time period. It is still in the S&P 500 at 353.  If someone told you to buy and hold HP in 1970, you’d have a nice gift for your grandkids now. 

ThanklessWaterHeater

Not to be too much of a Mom booster, but because I'm proud of her: I could show you the investments she made in BDX and LLY in the 80s, into AMGN and REGN in the 90s, into AAPL and SYK and CAH and EW in the aughts, into LRCX around 2010, all of which I still hold along with my own investments. She made lots of lousy investments as well—HP! Intel! 3Com! Cisco! Mom says: if you can research companies and identify ones that are well-run, profitable and growing; if you never put more into one investment than you'd be willing to lose; if you can be patient and wait decades to see results, in the long run the good ones grow so much that the ones that don't grow are a rounding error.

Because people could have said the same thing about Atari and HP back in the 70s and 80s.

Yes, that’s what market wants. AI companies should be able to gain market dominance and replace entire sectors using a used HP all in one desktop computer from 2011

Steve2926

Businesses will want their own AI servers. They won't want to be subject to tokens and random withdrawal of service, etc As cost of compute becomes cheaper, more AI servers will be sold. Hence HP, Dell and Lenovo will explode and each server will require memory. You can't run a business using AI if you don't control the costs and the availability.

GregBahm

I knew redditors didn't know history, but wow. Imagine telling on your self like this. Maybe its asking too much to expect a redditor to have ever heard of IBM, AT&T, and HP. But you're in a league below the bottom of the barrel if you don't even know what Apple and Microsoft are. If AI is the dot com cycle all over again (and it is) then the observable fact that OpenAI and Anthropic don't even have IPOs yet tells you exactly where on the timeline we are. Not even the "dial up" phase. The "you're telling me this mail is electronic" phase on the timeline.

Substantial-Self-605

Not just the edu. It's great for business customers too. I run IT for a \~100 person office with ages ranging from 40-80, and almost every employee has a new laptop purchased for them when they are hired. We were buying macbooks and macbook airs for everyone, but a couple of years ago, we tried saving money by putting our low-tech employees on windows laptops. We've bought the most standard of standard Dell, HP, and Lenovo laptop like the thinkpad. Every single one of those laptops has had some catastrophic issue that has us either wasting a lot of time working on it or replacing it within a few years. On top of that, our employees had the hardest navigating all of the BS microsoft put into windows 11. All hell broke loose the day they added co-pilot and made 365 default to it. Now we only buy windows machines if the employee needs it for a specific software. On the other hand, we've had maybe 10% of our macs fail, and it's usually because of age or an employee's neglect. The day the Neos were announced, my boss was scared of buying any because of chip. I ended up getting one for an employee that solely did cloud based work just to test its viability, and I honestly think the Neos are close enough to speed to the newest Macbook Airs and the Pros for 95% of consumer tasks. We've got atleast five Neos now, and nobody has complained about it. We will keep buying more until something better comes around.

ripvanmarlow

Yup, upgrading to windows 11 bricked my perfectly fine HP laptop and I was done right there. Bought a Neo before the price hike and pretty happy with it. Does everything I need and with none of the start menu bullshit and forced ads that MS was pushing.

Look at that chart on HPE. Someone hit the BUY button at 1PM and that chart isn't a chart, it's a fucking line. Everyone thinks HP is just servers, but they have something most people don't even think about: Networking. HP is huge in networking. They bought Aruba and Juniper. And they didn't even fuck it up; they kept the engineering teams together and supported the business instead of cutting and wrecking them. Aruba isn't helpful for the AI buildout because they do more corporate and mid-size business stuff, but Juniper is huge.

TreGet234

SaaS is so finished lmao Gonna get squeezed from all angles Really bad though for american tech. SaaS cheated the system with its ridiculous profit margins due to its major asset being entirely digital. Without that i don't see tech outperforming anymore outside of the raw hardware, but even that will be short lived. Calls on what companies exactly? Aside from hardware. Which companies will be contracted to set up that IT infrastructure at companies that previously relied on SaaS? Dell and HP?

Nobody was ever bragging. Somebody suggested the guy could have worked a ton of OT. I suggested I’m that guy that works a shit ton of OT and I’m not buying McLaren or whatever this guy had….i can assure you, I’m at no point trying to brag about owning a boxster or that one of my other cars is a Miata 😂 I wanted to feel Porsche engineering without the fat ole price tag. Drive a cheaper model for 2 years, enjoyed the quality and can appreciate the lower HP for every day driving. Guess you misread it.

AlphaMaleXYZ

That’s not accurate. Lenovo, a global company, has been using CXMT in their Thinkpad laptops and computers for a while. These products are sold worldwide. Other Chinese OEMs are using CXMT too and sold outside China. HP, Dell are considering CXMT too.

Im more concerned that CMXT qualified RAM will first replace Dell and HP OEM ram, then scale into replacing the DDR5/6 we see used in agentic computing, at least in data centers outside of the U.S. If that happens then HBM will saturate and Micron will drop. We will need to have very bullish memory sentiment related to robotics in early 2028, and it appears that the early lidar order growth this year is proving it. Ouster for USA, Hesai for China.
