Is the Stock ever going to rebound, or are the powers that be trying to let it sink so low that another competitor will come in & buy at a discounted price?

Look in your crystal ball for October. How many org update invites do you see?

See title

Anyone else feeling this? Calm before the storm?

Anyone else feeling the vibe lately? Between director all-hands and the 10/29 meeting—not to mention the travel freezes—it feels like something is up…

I’m thinking so unfortunately. These recent hirings and firings seem knee-je-k and desperate like he’s exiting soon.

I keep hearing Proxxima is supposed to be this big thing but no one is buying it. Did someone lie to get a promotion again?

Is this the next algae? Or Yoshi fuel delivery?

I am hearing rumor that a deal with Spectrum is done! Anyone in the know willing to say so?

Few posts online are claiming that people are abandoning their homes, leaving cars at airports and flying out of the country, this could be a early sign or a social media speculation of repeat of past 2008 housing crisis ?

Lots of unverified/ speculative chatter on the web about a 2nd mysterious bidder willing to offer 70 dollars per share which is the boards starting negotiation price and which Stripe Advent were unable to offer. Is it true and who could it be that has the deep pockets? My wild guess is Watsapp/Meta or Twitter/Musk as both want to move out of pure advertising revenue and have the deep pockets.

It’s weird not seeing people concerned about Tuesday 6am? That’s literally when layoffs happened last September. The day after Labor Day. These 14th/15th dates more realistic?

Any rumor/speculation on this? Given AI spending, profit margin pressure and cisco LR history, 11/26 or 02/27 is more probable?

Rob Thomas sold ~1/3rd of his shares a few days ago.

What does he know?

I noticed they took down a post where someone saw Advent employees on site in SJ

In 2018 they rebadged on Sept 24th which is last Monday of September. I wonder when they planning this time

Guesses on how quick? Fire sale? It doesn’t fit either business Needs to be with a Gas explorer.

I’ve been hearing rumors about potential layoffs in EAcX and MACx sometime in August. Has anyone heard any credible updates or know if there’s any truth to it? Also, are people hearing about a specific percentage of employees that could be impacted, or is it all speculation at this point?

Speculations

A few analysts were recently let go. Seems like C&S Ohio is dying a slow death ever since MMP and DSNP have gone away. We were told it was due to the business like they were supporting was basically dead? I am assuming that was DSNP. MMP has been gone for several months now. The speculation rumor mill is that these analysts had been there quite a while and were probably making good money so they let them go to save money. I dont know if it was random or if the leadership all conjour together and figure out who they can let go. Its very interesting that not one leadership person in Ohio was effected by losing MMP. One person left but they just went to the national line of business. Never trust any of these people in leadership. They are not your friend. They are all out for themselves and they get together to discuss who to keep and who not to keep. I would be very wary in Ohio C&S especially if you make good money. If you arent making good money you are probably safe because you dont effect the budget at all. Stay vigilant out there! Always have an updated resume.

Does anyone really believe they are stopping at 1k for stores? Why would they when the agents can do all the heavy lifting. New York and the northeast got sla-ghtered today. Definitely more to come, the only question is when?

It’s been a year since Shell declared they were not going to make an offer on bp. And there have been almost no speculation about mergers or takeovers since then. This place must be so unappealing to the rest of the industry. Someone please just step up and do what need be done.

seems like this could be the biggest thing happening to this company.

anyone has seen any sign to confirm what the news reported?

Purely speculation…email domains are all moving to @hcsc.net…leased offices were being weird about blue branded items when they closed…there’s more emphasis on HCSC everywhere you look.

BCBSA got hit with a huge class action settlement. Could HCSC be distancing themselves from the blues to avoid the financial liability?

Let the speculation begin.

2026 stock together has been approved with grant date Oct 1,2026
So if NJ requires 90 days notice and they have to get people off the books to avoid that payout, then a June 30 announcement for an off payroll date kinda makes sense.
Does anyone have any insights to any announcement on June 30th ? This is all speculative, im just looking at rumors and how timelines could match up to the stock together date.

Have to say the quality of the intel has been nothing short of tripe the last few weeks. Those in the know up your game please with specifics. The other id--ts who spam the life out of here can go back to your mums spare room.

I can't get worked up over rumors anymore. If official news comes, I'll deal with it. Until then, I'm not wasting my energy.

I willl be interested to see if the 13% and the RIFs are the work of the troll.

I don't think this run up has much more to go. Maybe a little, but it's a lot of risk, especially after seeing how quickly it can drop. I started working at Micron (Boise) in 2004 and just recently quit. I remember looking at the stock price history after I started working there and looking at the run up to 2001 and thinking "of course it was going to come crashing down." Now, I want all of you to look at Micron stock now, and set the timeline to MAX. Compare where it is now to where it was in 2001. even if you adjust the chart to inflation, it still shows a massive bubble. All I'm saying is I wouldn't be long on this stock. I'm predicting a bubble burst in October AT THE LATEST. We'll see if I'm right.

WF will replace it's biweekly pay schedule with a semi-monthly one starting January 2027. How will this affect the layoff calendar? The current predictable "Tuesday after the payday" would become harder to track given the irregular nature of the new schedule; i.e., the payday can fall on any day of the work week. Perhaps the layoffs will also occur on a semi-monthly basis, like around certain dates of each month?

Anyone else think that Fiserv as a whole will just be swallowed by a competitor since we are cheap right now? Or selling First Data and splitting the company back into two would be better?

Urgent leadership meeting … no smoke without fire. Speculation?

How long before Kyle announces his “retirement”? It’s a matter of time.

I hear from others in the office that some big announcement is coming in July. Maybe related to Cold Lake?

What’s next for Hy-Vee?
Closing stores? Burning the ship again?

What are everyone’s predictions?

There’s speculation surrounding Mike‘s future at Blackbaud as the stock price tanks.

It‘s very possible an announcement is made on his future Autumn 2026, with an eventual departure in 2027, until a replacement is found.

Our team is coming up with a $699 computer to compete with the Apple $599 computer. If we’re a market leader, why didn’t we come up with the not a Chromebook device before Apple. The Apple will be better built and last a student all through high school. And Apple’s support bot is better than ours. I know, because I’ve used both.

It shows we no longer lead the PC market, we follow the trends. A sale or spinoff can’t be far off.

Disclosure: Like others said - mine is pure speculation. I own some Dell stock but not enough to get rich and retire yet. I’m just turning sc--w drivers and plugging in cables everyday.

As an aside, I wonder how the ‘experts’ who said to dump Dell at $150 are doing…
