You're right that without evidence it's just noise. what would "mathematically prove it works" look like to you? For what it's worth there is peer-reviewed work showing quantum kernel methods outperforming classical baselines on financial classification tasks not hype, actual AUC comparisons on real market data. HSBC and IBM published results in September 2025 showing 34% improvement over classical ML on bond trading using quantum feature maps on a simulator-reproducible methodology.
What do yall think about IBM?
Surely IBM will be red again tomorrow.
I made $23k on IBM calls last month
Sick me too on IBM, MSFT, HPE and Palo Alto all down 30-40% lol
IBM has been red every day since I bought calls and has gone down 20%. I don’t even know what to do everything I touch in life turns to shit.
I now need IBM to recover 30% by August just to break even
Can we just somehow breed Apple, Google and IBM into an amazing ecosystem? I’d buy that.
I have enthusiasm for some stocks. Like QNT and IBM because I’m pretty excited about quantum computing. Other than that not really excited about anything else.
When does IBM double
IBM? What is this 1967?
I for one can’t wait until IBM has its sixth red day in a row tomorrow
even IBM is cucking MSFT. fuck
how screwed am i on IBM and NOW shares?
fuck it i don’t give a fuck just dropped 10k on AMD, SOXL, TQQQ, EWY, AAPL, AVGO, and IBM
Servicenow and IBM going to make me cry in the casino for real
Im so incredibly disappointed in IBM and NOW. So many headlines, so much red.
IBM heading for fifth straight red day
I need NOW and IBM to start doing things
I’m the reason IBM, MSFT and PALO won’t go up. Im sorry
Loading up on IBM, undervalued to fair price
Another red day for MSFT and IBM 🤣
Thinking about IBM leaps. Convince me why I'm regarded
I’m not selling calls on my IBM shares I think it’ll run
so ppl just taking profit on IBM forever?
IBM such a bitch, geeze louise
I bought the hype on IBM and NOW. Getting murdered
Holy shit IBM I don’t know what the fuck to do. How does it keep going down wtf man. I don’t know how to recover from this.
MSFT 🤝 IBM being fucking gey
IBM go up you crock of shit
Why tf did I buy all that IBM?
IBM is tanking now WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!
IBM is flat while everything is pumping 😩
Everything is skyrocketing and I’m stuck with these IBM longs that are down 50%
PL - bought back RKLB - bought back MRVL - doubled position IBM/HPE - ready to buy more leaps NVDA - ready to add 1dte Bull thesis is back, moonshot is on track.
Damn IBM with no signs of life
Fuck it, I'm done looking at 10 different calls and incremental gains getting wiped out in one bad day. MRVL is in the right business, got shilled by Papa Leatherjacket and will get bought by all the S&P500 and NASDAQ bogleheads soon enough. Holding only this for the summer. Plus an extra IBM call that will expire next week at 0, unless El Taco shills it on his Temu Xitter.
Need big fat greenies on IBM and ServiceNOW to feel alive again
HPE IBM the two most undervalued stocks. Reminds me of csco when i went balls deep then sold it to move onto rklb/ionq. Was a good bet to 100x my account but csco fucking mooned.
IBM has cpu stuff/IP as well. I think we can agree, data Center CPU is dominated by x86 and ARM. Broadcom isn’t really there. Whilst accelerated compute, Nvidia gpu and Broadcom TPU. In networking, is Nvidia mellanox and Broadcom tomahawk. And IBM holds tonnes of filed IP, whether you can hit the jackpot in that stack of IP depends on the ability of your engineers, foresight and some luck.
How would buying IBM make them more competitive? Their main competitive challenge is their customers are looking to diversify away from their main revenue driver (custom silicon). Best way to address that is through R&D to improve its technology.
Is it possible that the US government takes a stake on IBM I think it might be possible since: a) the US government considers quantum strategic because security/military implications. Ibm is leader in the field along a few others b) ibm processes 99 percent of credit card and bank transactions. It is deeply strategic . To me it is similar to Intel, legacy but strategic. What do you think?
Isn't IBM a market leader in Quantum computing Mainframe And Linux with REHL
Right, it has already been seen with INTC, MP, DELL, and IBM to name a few
The AVGO M&A playbook heavily focuses on “franchises” where the acquired have a clear market leading position in an area. IBM’s consulting arm seems like a bad fit for that. I’ve always thought AVGO should be targeting ADSK. Market leader in CAD software and horrifically inefficient. The problem is CAD might not be a good fit with the rest of AVGO’s software business.
If the administration announces investing in either $CTM or $BBAI, I’m loading the boat with them; I’m not missing another $INTC $IBM opportunity. As they’re penny stocks they could go a lot farther too. Until that, I’m not touching $CTM with a 10’ pole. I’ve sold some $2 $BBAI puts if anyone wants to drop the price that far 🤙 Also check out $NU, one I think is expensive right now, but the company is solid. I sold some $5 puts on that in case it wants to go back to being a penny stock.
he really did love US computers: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM\_and\_the\_Holocaust](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_and_the_Holocaust)
Market falls and the bulls can't buy the dip as they are already loaded up, many with leverage. SpaceX IPO price gets slashed because Elon insisted on setting his own price. Falling market allows the less bullish narrative to take over - most consumers don't want to pay for AI. Enough corporates find that return on investment in AI is not quite as good as hoped, or at least hard to gauge. AI related infrastructure supply contracts, many with 90 day cancellation terms, start to get reined in. Fears grow over capex cycle, directionally towards the IBM CEO's version - that current capex plans are 2x that required. AI multiples get cut in half.
I can see the strategic fit, but IBM feels way outside Broadcom's usual playbook. The size, regulatory scrutiny, and complexity would make it a tough deal to pull off, even if the numbers work. i would be surprised if they went after IBM before targeting something smaller and easier to integrate.
Very interesting post that I appreciate is not written by AI. I genuinely think the acquisition would pass through the courts, I just don’t think IBM would be the ideal target. Like you mentioned, the premium would be enormous. Looking at the average they paid for past acquisition, you’re looking at a 30-40% premium, or around $350B. I don’t think IBM brings anywhere close to enough value to justify that, especially in the age of AI where AVGO is already designing the picks and shovels. Buying IBM would either dilute shareholders or massively raise debt, raising their WACC, and likely lowering ROIC considering IBM is not growing as quickly as Broadcom. The quantum part of IBM is the most interesting to me, and the only piece outside of software that I think Broadcom would want. The synergies between the 2 could probably unlock something and make Broadcom a massive player in the space. If they did acquire them for some reason, I would hope they spin off the consulting side of the business. That’s unnecessary baggage that could help lower the cost and debt load
I think he alluded to this in his interview today with Bloomberg. He mentioned that he does not want to get distracted by another M&A in this wild AI buildout era. Acquiring a company like IBM will suck up a lot of his focus.
NOW, ONDS, UMAC, IBM are the only trustworthy tickers for months to come
If I get it right Oracle, Salesforce, IBM, and Accenture are not part of NASDAQ 100, are all tech companies and part of the top 100 US companies. NASDAQ 100 is top 100 non financial companies traded at NASDAQ and there many non financial companies. So there is no reason to select NASDAQ 100 or QQQ for tech and NASDAQ selection is a bit random. If you really want tech, why not take a tech sector fund ?
Bro I need IBM to recover 25% by end of month at this point lol
1. That is just straight-up wrong. Vanguard, Instacart, Walmart, Samsung, McKinsey, IBM, and Microsoft all heavily deploy open-source AI. Major enterprises use open-source precisely because they can’t risk throwing proprietary data or regulated client info into a third-party, commercial black box. They run it inside their own secure, isolated cloud perimeters where they actually control the data. 2. No shit it takes compute. Nobody said it runs on magic. But you’re completely missing how enterprise unit economics work. With open source, you can utilize quantization and right-sizing to shrink a model's footprint so it runs on a fraction of the hardware. A fine-tuned 8B model handling a specific task like billing routing is exponentially cheaper than bleeding money on variable per-token fees to a proprietary API. Plus, dedicated leased hardware turns variable costs into a flat, predictable operational expense at scale. There is a massive difference between having an actual conversation and whatever this clueless, aggressive nonsense is. Your entire communication style is just talking out of your ass to cover for a total lack of actual insight.
Jesus Christ dude IBM is about to be 20% down the past few days.
Remember how IBM's Watson was able to use LLM to answer questions on Jeopardy 10+ years ago, the Ai hype now is just that but as a chatbot.
IBM is down 15% in three days my god I’m poor
they are murdering my boy IBM
I bought 20k oh Jan IBM calls on 6/1 and they are now only worth 11k lol
I'm super ehhhh on IBM. They've lied for the past 10 years about their quantum computing progress if you look back at what they've said versus what has actually been produced.
Also was extra beat down because it's partially priced as SaaS too. When SaaS recovers , IBM will go even higher. Avg. price $223 here, but I'd honestly consider buying some more if the dump continues.
Any time I buy IBM stock, it immediately starts tanking
IBM feels like a classic stock to buy low and ignore when high.
Went big on PLTR calls earlier this week. Nada. Bought one IBM call a week or so ago just so I wouldn't hate myself if it mooned. Hit 500% gains.
IBM and GOOGL are better
IBM and GOOGL are the two best
Im 100% sure im the cause of IBM's dip lately, cause i bought some
Opens thread, searches IBM, no results...feels bad
Do you really think quantum will be profitable soon or are you holding for 10+ years? Because as someone who's been following quantum for years (as in, I used IBM's quantum computer back in 2017), I cannot possibly see it launching the same way NVDA and MU did.
IBM leads the field but Google and IBM swap depending on time of the year and latest milestones. IBM will be first to market.
IBM will get you closer to actual commercial availability. These will be sold in 2029 by IBM.

This is the quantum company I've been waiting years to own, hoping they would go public. If you follow the sector you know they're the one for pure play. Honeywell and Cambridge, which yes actually came out of The University of Cambridge, have led in this space for a while. I've held IBM, IONQ while waiting for this IPO. With smaller positions in INFQ, QBTS, RGTI, and XNDU. But as of this IPO QNT is my new largest position for the sector. People are constantly whining about missing out on NVDA, and then MU, and asking what's next, well it's right here in front of you.
IBM and GOOGL are the only two worth investing in
Share price = market cap / shares outstanding. Nvidia has 5 trillion market cap, 24 billion shares outstanding. NOK has 90 billion market cap, 5 billion shares outstanding. To get to $50 share price NOK has to increase market cap by $200 billion. Bringing it to the same market cap as IBM, Intel, AMD. But these companies have share price of atleast $100 because they don't have so many outstanding shares. It has potential but I just mentioned how limited they are by the huge outstanding shares. Your choice.
Stock price is directly calculated based on Shares outstanding and NOK has huge amount. More than Sandisk, Micron and IBM combined.
Just buy IBM - GOOGL and now QNT

It has potential but I just mentioned how limited they are at the moment.

NOK 5.5 billion shares outstanding, more than IBM, Sandisk, Micron combined.
I do agree optics and photonics companies have the best potential but they all mooned already. AAOI, LITE, COHR... I think only MRVL and IBM has potential now for catch up, except it's not the same kind of market cap.
I should have sold my IBM calls on Wednesday. This is driving me insane. It’s going to be down more tomorrow too.
HNRG about to get the IBM treatment
Is IBM dead? What kind of pa is this
Waiting for entry on IBM and AVGO. If I’m wrong I’m wrong, but I think AVGO has a leg down left
IBM gonna be a monster
Little bit of NVDA and IBM. Still scared to buy calls just yet.
I’m so fucking sick of losing money on IBM
Jesus fucking Christ dude I’ve lost so much money on IBM the last two days. Is it ever going to go back up or am I fucked.
Seriously what the fuck is going on with IBM?????
