Hurd in Talks With Oracle - Report
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. (TheStreet) -- Former Hewlett-Packard(HP) CEO Mark Hurd could end up with an executive suite at Oracle(ORCL), according to a published media report.
Hurd is in talks with Oracle about a high-level job with the enterprise software company, according to a report on The Wall Street Journal's Web site that cited anonymous sources familiar with the situation. The article said the exact nature of the job under discussion couldn't be learned, and that the talks weren't complete, so Hurd's hiring could still fall through. > > Bull or Bear?
