Nope.Was she the best CEO in history? Nope. But HP's experience under Fiorina matches what was happening in the rest of the industry at the time.An uninformed observer might note that the stock begin ticking up after Fiorina was forced out. The immediate effect is likely due to shareholder relief that the person in charge was changing. However, the long-term increase in value following Fiorina's departure is a direct result of her wager to buy Compaq beginning to pay off, a move that was derided as a failure when she was forced out.More here: http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2015-09-18/carly-fiorina-s-hewlett-packard-record-in-one-chartAnd here: http://legalinsurrection.com/2015/09/this-chart-clears-up-carly-fiorinas-hp-record/

The computing field is a gamble in all aspects. No one can precisely predict the market considering all the competition.

The stock market lost a lot of market capitalization with the tech boom, and that chart probably looks like the stock price of tech companies in general. They should come up with a chart on the value of HP stock as a percentage of the value of tech company stock values in general. If you average in the small companies that went bankrupt, it may look like the stock value went way up.What would also be useful would be the stock price from further back in the chart, say 1994 or 1995 or so

Trump made lots of money off a lot of people putting their families through tough times.

Let's face it. Trump or Fiorina...neither are very good ideas!Fiorina is not that bad at business it turns out. We don't need a consolation prize who is a great speaker/sales person, we need a great leader. If she were a great CEO, she would not have been fired. If she were a great CEO that happened (because of political reasons) to be fired, other companies would have been knocking her door down to hire her!Trump is Trump. Mr. Bankruptcy. Do we really need him to tackle our 18 TRILLION dollar debt. I am sure he would double down.

Jj...I guess their words mean nothing to you. They both blame circumstances beyond their control for failure. The only comparison is Obama won a Senate election. Fiorina lost her election.She should be a speech writer for the rep nominee...because she is good with words

Not necessarily. The market for great CEO's might not have been larger than the supply of great CEO's. And probably being fired (even for political reasons) in itself is a bit of a liability on the resume. We could speculate about that, I guess, but if I had to guess who could work better with the opposite party to actually get things accomplished in DC, I'd take Fiorina over Trump any day. I don't think anyone believes she was a great CEO. She did not run the company in the ground. She wasn't that bad. It is my understanding that as CEO she made great efforts to change the culture. One of the things she did was replace the founders pictures with her own. Perhaps she is not that different from Trump?

It takes a certain attitude and persona to reach that level in business. If it is true that she took pictures of the founders of a large established company down and exchanged hers...Trump lacks wisdom. His ego outruns his brain most of the time. Some people can keep an ego in check.I imagine it takes quite an ego to run for high office to begin with. That is what probably set Dr. Carson apart from the others. Carson seems to be rather bumble. Jimmy Carter was too though and look how that turned out
