that was my take away from the hideous quarter dell reported, so bad it caused dell to lose 70% of its today. but people are getting it wrong, getting company too much of a free pass. they say what did we think dell would do given cisco is on hold? the problem with the consumer is sales were down 15%. that's a staggering decline. what's going on? i think it's michael dell's vision is proving to be wrong. his statements about how everyone is going to have three devices got crushed in this quarter, blown to smitherines. you'd be hard pressed to find out if you only read the conference call. how did it happen? apple. the mobile offerings is lethal for the wholedell consumer product line. no wonder apple led a rapid return today, rising to the resistance level today. the ripples and repercussions from the dell quarter are enormous. they're the obvious ones, intel and microsoft, neither which can afford a rapid typewriter type decline are banking on sales stabilizing to these factors. i think the strong balance sheet and dividend protection for intel will keep the stock from being totally a

i'm talking about michael dell. 5, 10 years from now, what is dell going to look like? >> i think the current situation is forcing his hand here. they could have been a little more proactive in making these moves, but i absolutely think these are the right moves. that said, i think it's a challenging move to execute on. it won't be easy to break into an enterprise space or move into tablet which michael dell has been adamant he doesn't wanted to give up on. >> susie: so the questions of whether it's wofrgt it to own dell stock? it fell sharply after hours. is it a bargain? is it worth the buy at $13? >> you know, it's a cheap stock. that's what's kept a lot of people circling around it. but with so much uncertainty and question marks about where they're going and how they're going to get to the blueprint that michael dell laid out, i think the stock is probably too risky even at the cheap multiple we see it trading today. >> susie: about about hewlett packard, and it's expected meg whitman is going to announce big job cuts. 25 to 30,000 people cut from the workforce. wh

this was the worst day in a decade for dell. what we have to conclude is that apple has obviated the need for many for the small form factor computer that was dell's bread and butter. stick with cramer. >> coming up, tailor made. the makers of calvin klein and tommy hilfiger is showing demand on the other side of the pond is still strong. time for to you go shopping? cramer's earning exclusive is just ahead. and later, accelerated profits? the future of computing is headed to the clouds and this company is paving the way. but after dell's disaster quarter drags down most of tech with it, should you avoid the battleground? don't miss cramer's take and his exclusive with the ceo of lsi corp, all coming up on "mad money."

but you clearly view dell more favorably in context. >> yes, as i said, i think with dell, i think dells at least doing the right thing. i think they're making forward moves, making acquisitions, trying to grow the higher value-added businesses. hp, i feel like they're still cram scrambling, trying to figure out a correction. >> rob, thanks. who is scrambling and who is not. >> they're both scrambling. dell is smaller, so more agile and can make more acquisitions quicker. maybe more value-added, right? i think hp is slowly turning, but we really have to wait a couple quarters to see. and we want to get -- see progress being made. i did think it was interesting that they are going to use their cost savings from this restructuring to put into faster-growing businesses like cloud, like big data, like security. and that to me makes me more positive about emc, because they're the leader in these businesses. and those are secular growth parts of technology, where you want to be. and emc is down 6% today. >> so you're saying you would own neither hpq, nor dell. >> no. >> interesting. you had h

dell, tougher call to make. >> yeah. all right. we'll keep watching the dell story. david, i want to get your take as we learn more about the divisions and what went on here. gary kaminsky, let's talk a bit about what went on today. speculation on the street about morgan stanley, cutting estimates during the road show for facebook. facebook dropping way below issued price closing at $31 a share today. what's your take on all of this? >> let's try to summarize facebook, maria, and by the way, now trading below $31 i think if we look at the aftermarkets -- >> $30.95. absolutely. >> and litigation just now, not to be unexpected, against the nasdaq. here's the three things that need to happen right now, m.b. it's very simple. this is an unorthodox transaction. i'm going to say it like it is. morgan stanley needs to put out a press release tonight or tomorrow morning and they need to tell the investing world what their position is in this security. they need to let people know how much stock they bought to try to stabilize this deal. if, in fact, they did. the guessing of

i would still draft dell.hen we take a look at the chart, the pattern that i was bullish on this stock for in the first reason, it's called an ascending triangle. it is failing currently right now. however, it's traded into a bigger symmetrical triangle. this pattern can break up or down. currently it's breaking to the downside. if it continues and it does go below that $11.34, dell is going single digit probably below its $8 cash per share. i think it's found nice support here in the mid-12s. i think there's an excellent chance we could see dell climb above $13, confirm this pattern to the upside for a similar target to the ascending triangle to $27. a lot is riding there on michael dell, but i think there's a great chance. this chart is still bullish. >> abigail, i understand you're miss technical, but you cannot ignore the fundamentals here. as we said a minute ago, fundamentals aren't looking great. tech spending here and in europe slowing down in governments and corporates. these are things hard to overco

let's look at dell compared to hp and how has it performed against its rival dell over the last three years. hp down more than 35% whereas dell is up almost 40% in that period of time. ty, back to you. >> all right. thanks very much. you know, we're seated now. i feel much more on your level here. >> i know. >> how do i play dell in this environment? >> well, peter like to say the term taken out to the wood shed. certainly they have been taken to the wood shed today. >> worst day in years. >> i think a lot of folks aren't realizing here the austerity. the lack of government spending. that's affecting their sales. down 33% in profits. and on top of that i think they lack evolution in dell. they're not seeing the tablet pick up for them. the ipad and kindle fire dominating. so maybe the windows 8 picks up. but right now look at the chart. >> down 17%, almost 18% today. >> brutal. >> you say stay away. >> stay away. think about nibbling but not for quite some time. that's a scary chart. >> jeff, thanks very much. let's go to brian shactman now for a market flash. >> tyler, this is fascin

we also like dell at these levels.hing by looking at dell, yeah, i do, and the thing with dell is that looking at over the last 12 years or so, the market shifted. it moved from enterprises to consumers traveling pcs. dell did not keep up with that. they lost competitive edge, lost market share. they've done things over the last year or two which have changed the company's fundamental business processes. and those things should pay off over the next few quarters. that's what makes us excited about this stock. >> you would buy dell at these levels? >> yes. we would be buying dell at these levels. we have a $20 price target on dell, and the reason is we think the fundamental supply chain improvements they've done to kind of match up with the competitive shift in the pc market is going to help them pay off. is going to help drive returns for them over the next few quarters. >> we'll see what they do when they report tonight. do you like apple, by the way, at these levels? >> i do. >> it's stalled a little bit here. >> yes

. >> it is, but you have to look at the chart for dell.rt has been ugly and has the rounded move lower and i don't know how dell breaks the spell of the problem that they have right now. >> no yield and no dividend? >> again with the no yield. >> it's important for the viewers. coming up next, we big into what drove apple higher. the details of what could be behind the pop. this is the first car that i've been totally in love with in every way, shape, and form. it's my dream vehicle. on a day to day basis, i am not using gas. my round trip is approximately 40 miles to work. head on home, stop at the grocery store, whatever else that i need to do -- still don't have to use gas. i'm never at the gas station unless i want some coffee. it's the best thing ever. as a matter of fact, i'm taking my savings so that i can go to hawaii. ♪ ♪ there'll be the usual presentations on research. and development. some new members of the team will be introduced. the chairman emeritus will distribute his usual wisdom. and you? well, you're the chief life offi

we're looking at dell. consumer revenue down 12%. >> this was an extraordinary call for two reasons. one, the demand side seems very weak. from k through 12, they do a big school business. secondly, the supply, they don't have the right stuff. carl, the subtle sub text of this, apple is taking it to dell. it's happening faster than people realize, same with facebook. mobile adomgs. the laptop would have a role. notebook sales down horrendously. this is the unraveling of a very good company. >> consumers are migrating to areas in which we've chosen not to participate. >> they say other devices -- hey, guys, it's okay to say apple tablet. there's no problem just admitting. listen, we don't have the right product line. now it's going to cause problems at intel. the ripples are going to be big here. i would tell people dell is not a bad company, but apple is just the sub text here! yeah, and we'll talk later about what it means for hp tonight which is obviously down a lot more. >> i know david broke a great sto

the pc maker, dell really setting the tone there. take a like at dell. stock down about 18% after the weak earnings we reported. despite the dell disaster, the nasdaq has been getting hurt less. they have -- jackie deangelis is looking at the nasdaq stocks, and we have some winners here. over to you. >> hey, maria, not so bad. right now down only about 13 points, so regaining some of the ground we lost earlier. i do want to point out we have the decliners outpacing advancers about 3:1, so there is still some red out there. as you mentioned some of these stocks are bucking the trends. certainly i want to start with facebook, on everyone's radar today, lawsuits that bill mentioned earlier, et cetera, some people are coming in and buying. at this point we are about 3.5% on facebook. calling this one a buy today, taking the minority view in terms of the long-term strategy, this is a stock you want to hold a price target. starbucks as well, we saw a pop on an upgrade from bank of america and merrill. they are saying that shares are correcting, but not because

. >> hitting after hours actions and a big move with dell. down 11% after the company missed on both the bottom and the top lines. what does it mean for the pc maker. let's bring in the senior technology analyst from jeffries. is there any positive in this report? >> not really. what we are looking at is a broad-based slow down. servers and service and software. interesting that pc was in line, but the guidance looks weak. >> we top the go to john in silicon valley with breaking news on dell. john? >> yeah, the call just got started. they said they didn't execute up to expectations. they blame sales and said they made changes to deal with that. also the macro environment heard on an earlier media call and why the asia business was flat. that was up 15%. they said india demand and that echoes what cisco said. a pause in europe and people holding on on pc sales ahead of windows 8 coming out and the enterprise refresh, they are saying that their customers are cautious. they are cautious about buying equipment in an uncertain growth environment.

dell was flat based on a stronger market in asia. you might have feared it would be worse than that. >> we will check in with you later on. pete, you have been a long suffering share holder and this is a rarity because you don't top the keep long positions. >> the shareholder, it will be more like a -- >> i will tell you what. this is what i took away. the numbers were awful because they are so tied to the pc market. 70 to 75% is pc-related. you look to ibm. they are mirroring each other except that hewlett is exposed, the most in the european markets. what i loved hearing is meg whitman said look, we have a point and a purpose. we are cutting 27,000 people. i am not happy, but it makes the company that much more efficient. 8% of the workforce is gone and they can retool and focus is on big data and security. that's the focus. now we know where they're going. i like the direction. that's the direction of growth where the margins are and i like that for the reasons i have to hold on. >> contrarian. you don't like this stock. >> it's n

and we talked about dell. how big are hp's challenges?, if you're talking about 30,000 employees being laid off, now they have $8 billion in cash, but they have $25 billion in debt. we saw what happened with rimm. last year they laid off 20% of the workforce, spiralled down, yahoo just fired 14% of the workforce, they're starting to spiral down. so hp, though, i think will do a lot better than dell in the enterprise space. once again, they saw the writing on the wall, so they're only on 15% exposure in the pc market. so i see them as having a better chance of turning it around and doing better in the cloud and the enterprise and the software space where i see dell having big challenges in that space. >> i know it was pricey, but was autonomy the right strategic decision? >> well, i mean, we'll find out. we'll find out soon enough. but, you know, it's -- if you're just letting people go and not growing the base, it could be a real problem. >> all right, tech expert from new york for us this morning, larry, appreciate it. >>> take a quick l

it's obviously a head wind and not just affect the dell. heard the same thing from cisco, a very problematic earnings report that's bleeding now into the f-5 of the world, and when you look at emc that's a name that's best in breed. for emc to be down close to 6% today, again, the outlook in terms of enterprise spending is very troubling. >> i fess what you're saying about dell in terms of pc sales and enterprise but what i don't get about dell, now that hewlett-packard's earnings is out, hewlett-packard saw a small increase in computer sales for the quarter and dell about not? where does the problem lie? is delta throwing the kitchen sink at this thing? >> i think that hewlett-packard has already thrown the kitchen sink at the problems that troubled them, and dell has been the beneficiary in terms of price action and capital flows for a lot of problems that hewlett-packard has been faced with over the last couple of years. i thought the price action in hewlett-packard, by the way, was a little bit disappointing. you would expect much move

. >> you know, michael dell, jeff, was 23 when he took dell public.lieve was 25 when apple went public. bill gates was 31. a little older than mark zuckerberg. do we have to focus on the age? >> the age doesn't matter. in every one of these experiences, though, they thad an e pifal moment. michael dell was the sharpest critic, he was somebody constantly challenging the model they had. his own harshest critic. michael dell reinvented dell perhaps six times now and hates it when people create a religion around the company or a cult around him. he's very low key, understated but brilliant guy. what's critical, with bill gates we saw obviously some of the antitrust issues led to the recognition he, too, is not immortal and the transition was excellent. >> jeff, sorry to break in there. we're running out of time. jeff, gary, thank you for your conversation. >>> we have a market flash now. >> we have a deal, ariba halted for news. we know what the news is. s.a.p. is going to acquire it for $45 a share. for a little bit of color here, the ariba board unanimo
