Welcome


  • Hi. The purpose of this blog is to continue sharing the observations (random and otherwise) that I've been developing over the past few years as an industry analyst, with a particular slant toward retail and how technology changes the way people shop. I welcome all comments and feedback, and feel free to either post a comment here for all to read or email me at jcrawford@cmdagency.com. And remember: we're here to change the world... it should be fun.

Mark Hurd to head HP

Hp The Wall Street Journal is reporting that NCR CEO Mark Hurd has been selected to head Hewlett-Packard in the wake of Carly Fiorina's departure. This is a really interesting pick, since Hurd came up through Teradata rather than NCR's hardware side. It makes sense from a financial perspective: over the past two years, NCR has outperformed HP by over 6x... and of course, Wall Street likes it: HP shares up 5% on the news, NCR shares down 12%.
