"U.S. stocks slide as H-P misses, oil sets new highs
Thu 1:48pm ET - CBS MarketWatch
Stock losses deepened Thursday afternoon as Wall Street suffered another one-two punch from technology and crude as Hewlett-Packard served up disappointing numbers and crude spiked to records.

Hewlett-Packard was the Dow's biggest decliner, skidding 17 percent after the computer hardware giant (NYSE:HPQ - News) said it earned 24 cents a share, excluding one-time items, in its fiscal third quarter, below the average analyst estimate compiled by Thomson First Call of 31 cents.

Looking ahead, the company expects fourth-quarter earnings of 35 to 39 cents a share, below the average analyst forecast of 43 cents a share. "
