They're filming a multi season HP show right now.

> It doesn't exist outside of social media circles like this Because HP hasn't been relevant since FB sucked. If the HBO show doesn't over perform I doubt it'll get to season 2,and that was my take before it would be a Netflix meme show. There's way more at Universal Orlando than HP world.

IDK, they just bought infinite money-making machines with Batman, HP, somewhat LOTR... Not mentioning they will use this to justify price increases (just like gamepass did) and what will poeple do? Cancel it to watch fucking sponegbob on paramount? Or the only two good shows on appletv? Plus all the DC universe lets you go wild with animation for kids and adults (KPop Demon hunters proves this shit works) and AI will keep cutting costs of that and any other shitty CGI needed for their films. Also AI will probably cut costs of distributions with AI dubbing letting you basically lay-off all the dubbers worldwide. Plus majority of sports stuff is just in the us and it can grow a lot in the rest of the world.

In the early 2000s, multiple Samsung executives were convicted in the United States for participating in a global conspiracy to fix prices of DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) chips, violating U.S. antitrust laws. Here’s a breakdown of the case: --- 🧠 What Was the DRAM Price-Fixing Scandal? - Between 1998 and 2002, major memory chip manufacturers—including Samsung, Hynix, Infineon, Elpida, and Micron—were involved in a global cartel to artificially inflate DRAM prices. - The conspiracy hurt U.S. computer makers like Dell, HP, Apple, and Gateway, who paid inflated prices for memory chips. --- U.S. Legal Action and Samsung Executives' Convictionsv1997 - 2002. - The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) launched an antitrust investigation under the Sherman Act, resulting in over $731 million in fines and multiple executive convictions. - Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. pleaded guilty in 2005 and agreed to pay a $300 million criminal fine, one of the largest antitrust penalties at the time. - Several Samsung executives were individually prosecuted: Il Ung Kim VP of Marketing, Memory Division 14 months in U.S. prison + $250,000 fine Thomas Quinn SVP of Marketing, Samsung Semiconductor USA 8 months in prison + $250,000 fine Three unnamed Samsung execs in Various roles 7–8 months each + $250,000 fines These were some of the longest sentences ever imposed on foreign nationals for price-fixing in the U.S.

LLM is just a use of the technology. Blockchain in crypto. Blockchain in bank transaction. What you're looking for is the golden key to unlock the potential it has. What they are rushing for is takeoff where the first party that achieves this technology will be able to self train the ai and accelerate the learning process so it can do the congnitive work of a human. This can be applied in research, industries, military and many other application. Our work today is just done by human pressing buttons on computer which can totally be replaced by ai. Then sell this ai to companies. HP already planned to cut it's workforce by 30%. people who went through college that studies data analysis is already made obsolete now. Image the accountants lawyers that will be made obsolete (I have no pity for them anyway) but the implication is great. One fund can be dumb. But all smart money can't be all dumb at the same time. The reward for achieve this is so great that it outweights a lot of risk. The worst they can land is a model that might not be fully intelligent but still able to replace a lot of workforce globally such that it make sense.

Intel has to pass the wafer test and then charge an amount where Intel eats all of the duds. This won’t be adding quite the punch to Intels bottom line as you think, especially since they’re continually loosing business market (their last market held onto due to cronyism with Dell and HP) share to AMD. Dell and HP lost on sales, so they’re abandoning Intel or they’ll simply lose the market. I already ordered purchases away from Dell for my IT company of 300. These laptops don’t last 4 years, they burnout due to heat, they cost too much to run, they’re not designed for the heat their CPU emits, and they’re more expensive and slower than the AMD equivalent.

And yet, all their bullshit combined is still nowhere near as bad as HP. Also, you can just use Linux and get the drivers without the app and subscription for each printer. Much easier than hacking a printer.

Feels like irrational exuberance in here. Shiller PE back above 40. You know what happens next. The economy is slowing down. HP, Apple, and GM all announced layoffs this week. Bolz running into the slaughterhouse with enthusiasm, promises of money growing into the sky, while companies like WMT barely increased revenues when factoring in inflation. TGT is expecting sales decline for 4th quarter, the holiday season. “Bers lose again!” The Bolz scream, as their paper gains are about to become realized losses when the sell to pay for their trip to the clinic for the Chlamydia they caught behind the Wendy’s.

HP printers are trash. Canon is better anyway.

ImprovementMain7109

This reads like the classic mature-hardware playbook: cut heads, talk about "efficiency," guide EPS a bit lower than the Street, and hope multiple compression does not get worse. A few things jump out: First, if they are cutting 4k-6k jobs on a base of roughly 50-60k employees, that is high single digit percent of the workforce. You do not do that if you think this is just a short, cyclical wobble in PC/printer demand. That is a structural signal, not a timing signal. Second, the fact that they are lowering 2026 EPS *despite* cost cuts tells you more than the press release spin. When management is actively reducing the denominator (employees) and still cannot hit prior EPS expectations, it implies they see either weaker pricing power, lower volumes, or sustained higher costs from regulation and supply chain workarounds. Probably some mix of all three. Third, on the "regulations" angle. Blaming US trade rules and China-related workarounds is not crazy, that stuff really does raise frictional costs. But it is also a very convenient story to avoid saying "our legacy businesses are commoditized and under competitive pressure." I would want to see how their gross margin trajectory compares to peers like Dell and Lenovo before I buy the idea that this is mostly about government policy rather than industry structure. From an investing lens, HP at this stage is basically a capital return / financial engineering story, not a growth story. You are underwriting: 1) Flat to slightly declining revenues in PCs/printers over time. 2) Management defending margins with periodic cost programs like this. 3) Free cash flow shoveled into buybacks and dividends so your per-share numbers look respectable even if the top line is stagnant. That can work as a thesis if you are buying at a low enough multiple. Cash cows can be good investments. The risk is that you model a "slow fade" and reality turns into a "faster fade." If unit volumes or pricing erode a few points faster than you baked in, the terminal value that justifies your current purchase can evaporate quietly over a few years. One thing I would watch: how aggressive they get on buybacks relative to the balance sheet and the cycling of the PC market. HP has a history of leaning pretty hard on repurchases. In a structurally challenged business, that is fine as long as leverage does not creep up just as the industry hits another downdraft. I am not saying HP is uninvestable. It can be a reasonable value / yield play if you accept what it is. But reading this, it reinforces the idea that you are not buying "PC growth" or "AI PC upside". You are buying a managed decline where the game is extracting cash faster than the business decays. Curious if anyone here has updated numbers on HPQ's current FCF yield and net leverage, and how that stacks against Dell on a like-for-like basis. That seems like the real comparison set for this kind of news.

Note: they are cutting _between_ 4,000 and 6,000 people (around 10% of their staff). Not by 4,000 for a total of 6,000 (which would be 40% and insane). As someone not familiar with HP's staffing levels I did a double take the first time I read that lol.

I used to work for HP, back when they were still in the fortune 5. Now, its just a husk that surprises me they haven't been bought by someone every time I hear about them. Same goes for HPE, tbh.

Today, HP Inc. announced a company-wide initiative (“fiscal 2026 plan”) to drive customer satisfaction, product innovation, and productivity through artificial intelligence adoption and enablement. The company estimates that these actions will result in gross run rate savings of approximately $1 billion by the end of fiscal 2028. The company estimates that it will incur approximately $650 million in labor and non-labor costs related to restructuring and other charges, with approximately $250 million in fiscal 2026. The company expects to reduce gross global headcount by approximately 4,000-6,000 employees. These actions are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2028.

You don't quite understand how the process works. Compounds have to go through multi-year clinical trials that involve global coordination between researchers, clinical trial sites, and vendors (like we were) that provide technology platforms for running these trials. Trials have a LOT of regulatory complexity as the process has to abide by at least 3 main regulatory bodies (FDA, EMEA, and Japan's PMDA). The project managers are staying on top of these regulatory changes, managing inbound as well as outbound audits, requirements for these systems between stakeholders, and ongoing support of hundreds of thousands of clinical trial staff at sites all around the world. A big trial can have tens of thousands of subjects and thousands of sites. There is no way trials of the scope we were running would be possible without this middle layer while still maintaining regulatory adherence, ensuring data quality, and traceability in the event of future lawsuits or regulatory action. This is extremely bearish for Novo in the same way that shedding scientists was bearish for IBM, Compaq, and HP because the purpose of pharmaceutical company is one part research, one part marketing, and one part navigating the regulatory and process complexity of getting new treatments to market.

Least_Treat3832

It was beginning of October when I was getting a petscans and other treatments with my husband that I found out 3 of the 4 hospitals within 200 miles of my home was closing permanently and a half dozen clinics and specialists; 2 dentists, a hormone Dr. I forget what that’s called shut his private practice of dermatology/hormone treatment and laid off all stuff and went to the 1 hospital in the area bc he couldn’t make it privately after 20 yrs, a weight loss clinic, a couple treatment centers, and one of the family drs in my town. It was middle and end of September when our treatment facilities we own started getting 5x the audits and the commonwealth told us that it was normal and that Medicaid was auditing more than ever due to the increased scrutiny (this is for people that are rightfully enrolled and won’t even lose it that aren’t getting paid for we found out), i was watching the political climate after Charlie Kirk, I knew people was about to lose Medicaid starting at the first of November, and just my personal patients alone was literally crying and losing their mind over how they were going to afford healthcare now to us… people that was retired and on fixed income had insurance increase from 1k to 3k with 0 way to supplement (some don’t even know how to use an iPhone or the internet), and all the tension building from the Diddy and Epstein scandals. I was already planning to pull my money and wait and see what happened and let things cool down at the end of October…. & then the government shut down happened & I did it immediately. You don’t have to believe me & honestly idc if you do, but it’s not even hard to believe considering the millions of others who done the exact same thing which is why in mid October the market was dropping a 1/2 percentage at a time and tech stocks was falling 5% a day starting at the beginning of the shut down it takes a lot volume to drop so drastically someone had to be the first millions of people and it’s probably the people who was watching everything very cautiously as it was that pulled their money. Plus considering I work in healthcare and I’ve had been watching it implode on itself starting in August and have friends, family, patients all losing their jobs from layoffs and complete closing of facilities and dozens of loved ones/patients crying and having breakdowns because their only additional income that previously paid for their house payment and car payments is now the cost of their HP alone and they literally have to choose between owning a home/vehicle or having health insurance even though some are married 2 income households it wasn’t that hard to predict something was going to happen. I was already waiting and watching for the time to pull my money and just needed a catalyst, apparently so did Millions of others. It’s impossible to time the market, I sure didn’t in the spring and I never pulled my money out and prayed it would recover, but I didn’t feel hopeless at that time either, I hated our economy and feared AI would take jobs eventually but It was the BBB that really scared me and then gave me a hopelessness; it’s impossible not to when you see grown men crying over their kids and families and people that done everything right from college, to career, to hard work everyday come to a place they realize they cannot even afford basic necessities. So it wasn’t something that happened in a day, it’s was compounding for months and then when the shut down happened it was sign I needed. & it was only 20% percent of my portfolio like I said and it ended up on those specific stocks bc I had zero faith in the market at that time and I literally bitcoin and Strategy is tied to bitcoin and I 100% believe bitcoin will never be anything that is mainstream bc most people will never understand it and we will never use a currency that is worldly traded and not tangible as a mainstream thing so it’s something I would bet against regardless long term. The inverse tech was much scarier, bc it was just an honest to God gamble at that time but it’s also easier to bet on things you feel conviction in but I was certain by any means or it would obviously been much much more and all I knew was that 80% was at least earning interest. I’m not saying I bought a bunch of puts and became a multi millionaire and if you can’t tell I have conviction in where I stand and a strong belief in public sentiment surrounding the market idk what to tell ya. I could very well be wrong and you tell me different and laugh in 6 months, save the post, but if I’m not don’t say the writing wasn’t on wall. It’s been there for a while and now the market has even begun to catch up to that.

That's not completely true though. Tons of internet/computer companies had legit businesses during the late 90s. Gateway, Dell, HP, Cisco, Nortel, Intel, AMD, Corning, etc. I think the better analogy is probably AI and 90s telecom/fiber optic companies. A legit business that overbuilt, became a commodity, and couldn't sustain their PE ratios.

In 2009 I was the sole IT guy at a small business and I started mining bitcoin 24x7 on an old HP workhorse server. Yup, I wiped the server and the wallet when we retired the server a year later because I thought bitcoin was just a novelty proof-of-concept thingee. Thankfully I don't remember how many bitcoins I had so I try to tell myself I only had seven or so.

Things can be manufactured to last. The old thinkpads that were sold to businesses don't just fall apart like trashy HP laptops. Corporate clients aren't buying trashy gpus, and they're not overclocking them. Hell, I used my previous cpu for 8 years and it was perfectly fine, except for windows deciding "nope this is too old". Wear and tear in electronic devices is 99% the batteries, which are consumable. The rest of it doesn't just fall apart unless abused(such as running too much power through it, or insufficient cooling solutions) > cpu & gpu today and the ones 5 years ago. Performance per watt really hasn't change much. https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/power_performance.html They just put more cores in there and burn more power. The big differentiators are in some of the specialized chips they're making that are task specific with things like optimized caches, or ai generated frames. We used to make things smaller and more efficient to get gains in performance. Now (because of limitations of physics), we're getting more things to work on the problems and doing task specific optimizations. 10GW of yesterdays gpus had pretty much the same raw compute power as 10GW of todays

2007 was easy and obvious. You had people with no income buying gazillion dollar houses. They were then packaged into CDOs. Then rates started going up. My main question in 2007 was always how come I can see it, and so can the people whose blogs I read at the time but the heads of these banks can’t? I kept thinking I was missing something which is why I didn’t go all in on the short side. I almost bought really cheap puts on Bear Sterns in March but I believed the CEO when he said everything was fine. On the positive side I had money in early 2007 that I needed to invest for the medium term. That was the reason I started researching in the first place and after researching for a month or two I realized I couldn’t invest in that human being human being market. This feels much more like 1999. Everything was good until it wasn’t. COMPLETELY DID NOT SEE THAT COMING. I remember at the time friends of my parents owned a ton of QUALCOMM that had gone over 1 million or something I forgot. This was in January 2000. Even when the market started going down, I didn’t believe it. Could’ve gotten out of Cisco and HP with a decent profit even if it was not the one I had at the beginning of 2020 but I didn’t believe it would not go back up. NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE.

The logic of being concerned by this is so so so stupid and financially illiterate. Do you get concerned when Dell, Microsoft, Intel, and HP do business with each other? Tech companies exist in ecosystems. They compete with each other but also rely on each other as partners and as customers. I can think of so many key examples where investments like this have occurred. For christ’s sake Microsoft bailed out Apple! The success of each of these companies is bolstered by each others success, and it’s good business to make keep relationships with your biggest customers and suppliers. Yes, there are situations where this can be financially improper, and it’s good to be weary. However, there isn’t anything even remotely shocking going on here. There is real money being spent, and it’s ultimately bankrolled by the fact that the hyperscalers print money and are extremely interested in investing in AI. Y’all have no fucking idea what you’re even complaining about.

CartographerFew6140

From https://www.reddit.com/r/Nok/s/SHV5vQFGNo: Yes, absolutely his 9 years prior at both HPE and HP Labs leading their business unit and AI research initiatives is far more important to Nokia than the past year at Intel that is bleeding out talent through layoffs and strategic exits like this one. That move looked like his professional moonshot that is becoming apparent to be beyond anyone’s reach. This hire is more like gaining prime talent from a rebuilding franchise that has no shot at the title. He also worked at some point in his career at Motorola Mobility, so no stranger to telecom. Nokia may not have landed the biggest fish, but he’s looking like a great get, and the right person for what they need operationally right now to facilitate and accelerate toward data center and AI business. No way this can be turned into a knock on Pekka Lundmark. The opposite in fact. He’s smart enough a leader to step out of the way for the deep focused and specific talent needed to run something this complex and technical after he builds it. He’s showing to be an excellent strategist and bankable to the market from his moves the past few years.

From chatgpt: Everyday Items No Longer Made in the USA 1. Smartphones • Apple iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel — all assembled overseas (China, India, Vietnam). • No U.S. factory produces smartphones at scale; even “American” brands rely on Asian supply chains. 2. Televisions • All major TV brands (Sony, Samsung, LG, TCL, Vizio) are manufactured in Asia. • The last U.S. TV factory (Zenith/Magnavox era) closed decades ago. 3. Laptops & Tablets • Dell, HP, Apple, Lenovo — all assembled in China, Taiwan, or Vietnam. • No consumer laptops or tablets are made domestically. 4. Microwave Ovens • Once made by Whirlpool and GE, but now all microwaves are imported (mainly from China, Malaysia, and Korea). 5. Light Bulbs (Standard LEDs & CFLs) • Incandescent bulbs had U.S. plants, but LED and CFL production is now entirely offshore. • Even GE and Philips source from Asia. 6. Footwear (Mainstream Sneakers & Dress Shoes) • Nike, Adidas, New Balance (except a few niche models) — nearly all made in Vietnam, China, or Indonesia. • Only a handful of heritage boots (Red Wing, Alden) are U.S.-made, but everyday sneakers are not. 7. Umbrellas • No large-scale umbrella manufacturing remains in the U.S. • Nearly all come from China. 8. Consumer Cameras & Lenses • Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm — all Japanese or Asian-made. • No U.S. company manufactures mainstream digital cameras. 9. Household Fans & Small Appliances • Desk fans, toasters, kettles, blenders — all imported. • U.S. brands (Hamilton Beach, Oster) outsource production. 10. Electronic Cigarettes / Vapes • Invented in China, still exclusively manufactured there. Why These Aren’t Made in the USA • Labor costs: Electronics and apparel are labor-intensive, and Asia dominates with lower costs. • Supply chain clustering: Components (chips, screens, motors) are already concentrated in Asia. • Lost expertise: Once U.S. factories close, restarting production is prohibitively expensive. ✅ Quick Takeaway If you’re trying to avoid imports, you’ll find no U.S.-made option for smartphones, TVs, laptops, microwaves, LED bulbs, umbrellas, or mainstream sneakers. These categories are fully offshored, with zero domestic alternatives.

WB did very well this year, but their success was very delicate. The studio must be allowed to stay independent and I'm not sure they will be. Also, I have very low expectations for the HP reboot, but that isn't really the Ellisons fault. There are the parks, but as we saw with Disney and the Disney Adults rebelling over Kimmel, the Ellisons potentially have made the Universal parks political targets.

Mr_Doubtful

You’re kind of proving my point. Nobody’s saying all dot-coms made money — obviously most didn’t — but a lot of tech companies during that era were extremely profitable: Microsoft, Intel, Cisco, Oracle, Dell, HP, IBM, etc. They were real businesses caught up in the same market mania. And your IBM comment doesn’t even make sense — being founded before WWII doesn’t exclude it from the dot-com era. Nvidia was founded in the ’90s, long before AI hype, but it’s still part of today’s “AI era.” Same logic. The point is: there were plenty of profitable companies during the bubble; profits didn’t stop valuations from going insane then, and they won’t necessarily stop it now either.

Mr_Doubtful

Microsoft – $7.8 billion profit Intel – $7.3 billion profit IBM – $7.7 billion profit Cisco Systems – $2.7 billion profit Oracle – $2.6 billion profit Dell – $1.8 billion profit Hewlett-Packard (HP) – $3.5 billion profit Sun Microsystems – $1.0 billion profit EMC Corporation – $0.5 billion profit Qualcomm – $0.67 billion profit

I have a HP Pavilion with a 15" screen, running an Intel i5 Gen 11 processor, Intel Iris XE graphics, 16GB of RAM and a 1TB HD. Upgraded to Win 11 a few months ago. Works well. I run ThinkorSwim (Schwab) desktop as my trading software. I paid 500 for it a couple of years ago. Amazon Prime days are tomorrow and Wed. You might to look there for a Prime deal. I've seen my computer at Best Buy and Walmart for 470. I also use the ToS app on my iPhone 15 but much prefer my HP. For your price point you can get a pretty powerful platform. Some people will take issue with my HP and recommend Lenovo or Dell instead and that's OK. I've always had good luck with HP and since I buy them through Costco I always get the extended warranty. Be sure that whatever graphics are in your laptop are capable of running an external monitor, you'll want that feature.

These folks just chase whatever trend happens to be hot. Back in the day, they tried to compete in the test automation market by cloning HP’s QuickTest Pro feature-for-feature. Then they pulled a hard pivot into so-called “robotic process automation.” Of course, there’s nothing actually robotic about it — it’s basically a workaround for people who can’t code, automating clicks in browsers and UIs to fake sophistication.

Super Micro. We started carrying it for our business clients where I worked. They loved the servers, and they were usually more affordable than Dell or HP. I bought $10,000 worth of shares for a little over $1 a share. If I sold today I would have over $3 million. I sold it before any splits and before the price took off. I sat on it until I decided to throw it all into Apple, and that's where I'm still at.

Even slightly used, there's plenty of solid reliable options.  People complain about cars being shittier, but statically they're lasting 200-300k regularly, with 300+HP and 30mpg and better crash safety. No good reason to buy new unless you need to finance and refuse to get something a few years old.

Tech has been on a rip for decades... SSUUURREEE.... Let me give you some historical context. In the last dot com bubble there was Netscape, Sun, SGI, HP, and IBM. Tell me how many exist today? Tell me how many have great stock returns? The biggest mistake you are making is that you assume tech going up implies it is all tech. Right now the companies are Google, Facebook, and Microsoft. The darlings of the last bubble are for all intensive purposes gone. I have not even talked about Nortel. Cisco has just barely managed to hit the highs of the dot com bubble. Cisco was the darling of the dot com era. Bitcoin and crypto IMO is not investable. Just like Gold is not investable. They are not growing assets. They are shiny toys. Sure people like shiny toys, but that is not an investment thesis. Search why Buffett things of Gold.

Many ppl that make it to top do this shit, fall from grace, and get fired. Both men and women. Look at ex ceo of HP, ex CFO of RBC, that dude from Coldplay concert (lol), etc

I like that HP has tens of thousands of enterprise customers. In addition to AI servers offering real volume and dollar growth, the traditional CPU based server business is holding and even growing slightly. The Juniper integration allows them to go to market with storage, server and networking. 10x earnings too. If they can leverage their strengths and crank out quarters, the stock can re-rate too. I am long HPE and HPE calls.

You don't need to buy zimbabwe dollars just print them in your garage with HP instant ink subscription

It’s probably right on par with the gpu in my $800 HP laptop. Do they even have access to the Dutch chip printers?

Dell calls due to HP's higher PC sales due to Windows 10 to 11 upgrades being done by businesses everywhere.

HP and SNOWbunnies popping in AH and you’re worried about NVDA???

Round-Lobster671

HP beats by .01 and goes up 6% makes sense

HP calls

HP generally falls after earnings doesn’t mean this will be the case, but that is the normal situation

Everyone is gooning over Nvidia but what about HP? Maybe they have a printer that works or something coming out? Could be very exciting.

fartalldaylong

That’s not happening. The tariff loss doesn’t come close to the performance loss. Intel makes shit equipment…it will exist in shit boxes from HP and Dell. It has no CUDA so forget AI use. It is an unpredictable oven compared to AMD. They suck and no amount of money removes suck.

Pretty big week. Nvidia HP and DELL. I trust nvidia full green

appler turning into next HP (member when HP fiorina licensed ipads from apple back in the day). that's what you get when you promote mba's and bean counters (literally what steve jobs said back in the day).

HPE and HPQ, two distinct companies and stocks, spun off from the old HP.

I drive an X3 M40i so I'm down with the benefit of that mid line, it's fun to have that 380 HP B58 in a body style I've almost exclusively seen driven by middle aged white women but not having to go full bore with the X3 M comp I just am not one to pretend it's "just like an M bro" like certain members of the downpipe and tune crowd
