Before the markets opened on Friday, Hewlett Packard announced that it had raised its bid for 3PAR (NYSE:PAR) to $30 per share, trumping the bid of Dell (NASDAQ:DELL). As part of Dell's original buyout agreement, it will have the opportunity to match HP's offer, but with the current price 67% higher than Dell's original price, it will be interesting to see what Dell's Board of Directors decides to do.
With HP freely spending to acquire 3PAR, investors are acting cautiously today, with Hewlett Packard's stock down over 1% and the general markets higher. HP's stock price is weighing on the iShares Dow Jones U.S. Technology Sector Index Fund (AMEX:IYW), as the fund holds nearly $50 million worth of HPQ. On the day, IYW is close to even as the overall markets charge ahead.
