Description | Meg Whitman seemed to come a step closer to taking over as HP CEO on Thursday, with a report saying she was likely to be named the company's new chief executive after the market closed.
The report, from AllThingsD's Kara Swisher, acknowledged that "the situation could certainly change," but that the Hewlett-Packard board was ready to install the former EBay Inc. CEO as HP's permanent -- not temporary -- chief executive. Swisher cited anoymous sources.
Even with that report, HP gave back most of the strong 6.7% gains it saw Wednesday on rumors of current CEO Leo Apotheker's ouster.
HP has not commented on the situation. |
