- Meg Whitman will ring the bell of the New York Stock Exchange this morning, as the brand-new company she will lead - Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE) - begins trading.
- The move will mark the end of the yearlong process of dividing the 76-year-old giant, resulting in two companies that are expected to have about $50B in annual revenue and be among America's 500 largest public companies.
- On one side will be HP (NYSE:HPQ), which will largely consist of personal computers and printers. On the other will be Hewlett Packard Enterprise, which will sell servers, data storage, networking and consulting services.
