How it trades on rate days

How HPQ has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.23 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), HP Inc moved 0.23% on average · correlation 0.05 · higher than 23% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 1.34 more rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.84% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −3.17% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — HP Inc

HPQ in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
HP Inc makes personal computers, printers and related hardware, split across its Personal Systems and Printing businesses plus a smaller Corporate Investments arm that houses incubation projects. Personal Systems covers desktops, notebooks, workstations and endpoint services for both consumer and commercial buyers. Printing spans home and office printers, supplies, and industrial and 3D printing work. It is headquartered in Palo Alto and sells to small businesses, the public sector and larger enterprises worldwide.
Where it sits in the stack
HP carries no seat in our index, so it sits inside the devices and consumer platforms sleeve of our universe, alongside the hardware makers that compete for the same personal-computing and printing spend.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group places it against Apple, Samsung Electronics, Alphabet, Microsoft and Dell Technologies, reflecting devices and consumer platforms rather than a narrow hardware-only comparison; the market also weighs it against Lenovo as a direct PC-market rival.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
HP has no index seat and no Closelooknet score yet. It has appeared twice in the diary: a Morning 10 edition grouping its results with Nvidia, Synopsys, CrowdStrike and Salesforce as a single earnings verdict, and a Midday 10 edition noting its share reaction on a day most sectors traded lower.
What the diary watches
Closelooknet watches whether the recent Outperform upgrade holds as the stock trades below its 52-week high and posts consecutive down sessions, and whether its earnings reaction moves in line with the other names in that shared print or diverges on its own device and print demand.
