Wall Street didn’t know what to expect from HP this quarter. There is just so much changing swirling around the company.

New CEO Meg Whitman has a big job ahead of her rebuilding HP. HP may be at it’s lowest point now. One year from now HP could be solidly in the rebuilding stage. That’s if Whitman can work the same magic she did in the past.

Forces may make 2012 a weaker year for the company. It’s Meg Whitman’s job to reset and lower expectations going forward. She want’s expectations to be at their lowest possible. That way any good news will look terrific.

Bottom line I have faith in Meg Whitman’s ability to turn the company around if the board doesn’t get in the way.

We’ll have to see what happens next.
