Hearing HP looking to buy KM? Any truth?

LOL you seriously think that? HP is bleeding right now and worst of it all is the acquisitions they made in the past few years will end up a disaster as well, resulting in more fiscal bleeding. Never forget the HP way of doing business.
All the below comments about people being “fools” for thinking WFR won’t apply to them are correct, but this can also be argued for almost any other company. So in theory, we are all just a bunch of fools. God bless America.
"Any HP employees who think they are above getting WFRd are fools." Anyone still working at HP is a fool... that goes without saying.
HP’s business is 100% FLAT. If they acquire Lexmark or anyone else, the cost will come out of doing WFRs. Anyone who’s been at HP for a number of years knows that this has always been HP’s MO.
But note that HP does layoffs for many reasons, not just for acquisitions, so no one is ever safe at HP. Any HP employees who think they are above getting WFRd are fools.
Yeah- heard the same thing. But it’s more than just HP. Many other OEM’s looking to buy KM. But it’s just a rumor. Go figure with this industry. Most of the leaders are retiring and don’t have the ba--s to make a good decision.
It was always Xerox. Ask Carl Icahn.
Nonsense. HP bought Samsung back in 2017. Having all Technology that is needed.
