Let us now take a deeper look at the fund’s latest Q3 moves and how they have fared.

Sells Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:HPE)

Tech giant HPE got the scorched earth policy from the hedge fund this time, as Rosenstein has struck all shares in the tech giant in Q3. Since selling out, the stock has declined by -4.21%.

The announcement of CEO Meg Whitman’s retirement and mixed results are weighing on HPE. However five-star rated Oppenheimer analyst Ittai Kidron remains optimistic about the future prospects of HPE. In the latest report, Kidron wrote: “HPE reported mixed results with soft January-quarter guidance. The big news is that CEO Meg Whitman is stepping down effective 2/1/18 and will be replaced by HPE veteran Antonio Neri (current HPE President; formerly head of Enterprise Group; started at HP in 1995). Ms. Whitman will remain on the board. We view Mr. Neri as a logical choice given his knowledge of the company. Overall, we believe that trends in the underlying business are more positive than the headline numbers suggest, with solid results in HPE’s target growth areas. The encouraging top-line trends in multiple product areas (HPC, networking, storage, technical services) combined with HPE Next provide an attractive setup for improved fundamentals in FY18/FY19.” He has a buy rating and $17 price target on the stock (30% upside potential).
