HP, Inc. (Hewlett-Packard until 2015) produces access devices, including personal computing, imaging, and printing products, as well as related technologies, solutions, and services. The company’s key business segments are personal systems, printing, and corporate investments.
HP went public in November 1957 with a share price of $16. The IPO was held to help with estate planning for the company’s founders while allowing employees to get a share in the company. Today, institutional investors own over 70% of the company’s shares. The percentage is higher than in most firms in the computer processing hardware industry.
HP, Inc. pays a cash dividend. However, it has been volatile for a decade. It can be a risk for investors. The stock price is quite low, but it hasn’t grown significantly. Therefore, they should consider CFD trading.
The financial stability of the company is a key element when trading its equities. HP’s revenue and earnings growth have been unstable for years. However, it’s not a reason to avoid trading HPQ stocks. Traders should check quarterly financial reports to predict the price direction correctly. Another factor that can affect the stock price is the performance of HP’s competitors. If customers prefer alternatives over HP’s products, it will affect the sales and stock rate in the long term. HP's key rivals are Samsung Electronics, Fujitsu, Microsoft, Toshiba, Huawei, Apple, Lenovo, and Dell.
It’s an interesting fact that despite being one of the oldest and biggest companies in the electronic technology sector, HP Inc. is rarely involved in large lawsuits and scandals. It’s a positive sign for both traders and investors.
Also, HPQ stock is a part of leading stock market indices, including S&P 500, DJ US, DJ Large-Cap, and DJ Technology. Don’t confuse HPQ with HPE stock. HPE is a ticker for the stock of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company, established as a spinoff of Hewlett-Packard Company in 2015.
Risk warning: Trading in FX and CFDs entails high risk of losing capital.
