Problem: If you had to chose between Toyota, Exxon and Hewlett Packard, and utilize their financial data to pick which would you buy and why?
Additional Note...At this time I am leaning towards Exxon due to their third quarter earnings that were 11% above Wall Street estimates. Also, as crude oil prices fall, profits for companies such as Exxon tend to rise. They continue to thrive in sprite of other difficulties. Am I thinking right?
