HP - Can the Stock Price Hold?

HP's board really screwed up...by authorizing the investigation into the board leaks, and the resulting press mess over how the investigation has unfolded.

These types of messes usually affect the stock price. However, I think that HP will survive the attention. Should Dunn resign? Absolutely...unless it can be shown that she didn't have any knowledge on how the investigation was executed.

I expect Hurd to keep his distance, as he should, and let's hope that the success of the company to date, is not lost, due to illegal investigation methods.

Shame on you, Keyworth!
