Hewlett-Packard Split: So Far, So Good
After months of planning, industry giant Hewlett-Packard officially split into two Fortune 50 companies this week: Hewlett Packard Enterprise focused on the enterprise computing market and HP Inc. zeroed in on the printing and personal computer market.
Solution provider partners were bullish on the growth prospects of both companies, saying the split will allow the newly created businesses to focus on what they do best.
Share prices for HP Inc., trading under the original HPQ symbol, started trading on Monday at $12.47 a share and closed Thursday at $14.05.
