A Brocade Buy Sensible for H-P
SAN JOSE, Calif. (TheStreet) -- With acquisition talk again swirling around Brocade(BRCD Quote), the storage specialist would be an attractive target for Hewlett-Packard(HPQ Quote).
The Wall Street Journal reported that, in addition to H-P, Oracle(ORCL Quote) is also considering a purchase, but the paper said no deal is imminent. Citing people familiar with the matter, the Journal reported that Brocade could eventually decide not to complete a sale.Brocade is certainly an appealing proposition that could spell upside for H-P investors. The storage networking firm struck a bullish tone on its recent analyst day, raising its 2010 revenue outlook, and has become something of an analyst darling.
