Just the term dot-com captured the imagination of investors. Prices of some dot-com IPOs doubled in a matter of hours.<br />
<br />
With the current financial crisis, the market for IPOs has slowed down to a trickle. But we still have investing ideas that capture our imagination. Just mention the word term 'cloud' these days, and you are off and running.<br />
<br />

<br />
Shares swooned from <a href="http://clearstation.etrade.com/cgi-bin/details?Symbol=HPQ">about $55 to $37.32</a> -- coming close to the sell/stop loss at $36, but then found support and have since moved back above the key, 50-day moving average and the $40-level.<br />
<br />
Hewlett is still preferred, here, and look at the recent price dip this way: with a P/E of about 9, HPQ is on sale -- for those investors who can tolerate the risk.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/11/24/hewlett-packard-sell-off-appears-to-be-over/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Hewlett-Packard: Sell-Off Appears to Be Over</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/11/24/hewlett-packard-sell-off-appears-to-be-over/">Hewlett-Packard: Sell-Off Appears to Be Over</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Wed, 24 Nov 2010 15:00:00 EST.

The price tag for the transaction is roughly $1.13 billion in cash, which translates to $18 per share for 3Par. Compared to Friday's closing price ($9.65), Dell is paying an 87% premium for 3Par. 3Par specializes in products that are designed to minimize the costs of greater capacity and energy.<br />
<br />
Dell expects the deal to help its adjusted profit during fiscal 2012. The boards of both companies approved the deal, which should close by the end of the year. Obviously, we will see shares of 3Par advance to the $18 region, as Dell has assigned this price on the firm's shares.

The company attributed the earnings windfall to "sever virtualization and cloud-computing trends," which drove "significant business."
