More Merger Musings

The Hewlett Packard stockholder vote on the proposed merger with Compaq is due on 19 March. Over recent weeks, various institutional investors have been announcing which way they will vote. Walter Hewlett, son of one of the founders, and other family members and their charitable foundations have already said they will vote their combined 18 percent holdings against the deal.

I would like to be a fly on the wall at the meeting, however I'm sure we will find out the results very quickly.
