IBM has demonstrated significant growth, especially in its hybrid cloud and AI ventures, while also benefitting from its strong consulting business. Analysts are bullish about its future, pointing to potential upside due to innovations in quantum computing and a robust software portfolio. Despite a recent pullback in stock price, many reviews highlight IBM's reasonable valuation, growth potential, and healthy margins. However, the company faces challenges from competition and mixed short-term sentiments, with some experts suggesting caution due to valuation concerns and rotating into other tech stocks. Overall, IBM is viewed positively for its long-term prospects, although investors should remain vigilant for entry points during market dips.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 22/05. No change.) Corporations are flush with cash but they are doing mergers, acquisitions and share buybacks and have not started on the new product cycle yet. When they do, IBM will be a major beneficiary.

PAST TOP PICK

IBM is up a little since being a top pick. She still owns it and is still buying. IBM has very diversified product lines. It is a value company.

DON'T BUY

Always overvalued.

BUY

This would be a long-term holding. They have a variety of industries. Won’t be a rocket ship, but it's a steady performer.

TOP PICK

Well-positioned when companies start to use the cash they have on their balance sheets. It has a number of new products coming in in 2006. This should drive earnings and valuation of the stock. Trades only at 15 X next year's earnings.

DON'T BUY

Struggling for growth in the technology space in the US. Very difficult for it to maintain the margins that it had, Would prefer Cisco (CSCO-Q)which is trading at a fairly attractive valuation.

BUY

Likes this company. Has been thinking of buying, but he has a lot of technology in his portfolio. Expects it will have a good strong 4th quarter. Not eapensive.

BUY

The services business which they are focused on is a very good business. The share price has been improving. You won't get hurt with this one. He prefers Hewlett-Packard (HPQ-N) which will be reporting earnings a month from now and should have an uptick in all of their business lines.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top PIck July 19/05. No change.) Still likes it. Had a very good quarter. Good diversified product line.

DON'T BUY

Has been a big ship to turn around, but they have done a good job making it a leaner company. Economically sensitive. Will grow with the economy. In technology, you can find things that have a little more zip to them.

HOLD

A great tech story over the long term. A solid franchise and you are safe holding it. They continue to evolve and want to go in and run the businesses that are their customers. Continue to be a leader in semi-conductor manufacturing. Likes it below $80.

TOP PICK

Not expensive trading at 15.5 X next year's earnings. New main frames are to be announced soon which will give the stock a bit of a push. Global corporations are very well funded and when tech spending really starts to resume, This one is clearly positioned to benefit. A low risk way of playing a major recovery in tech spending.

TOP PICK

Well positioned for when corporations start to spend the cash they have in their balance sheets.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Was a good pick up a few weeks ago in the low $70's, but still thinks there's some upside even at this price. Gross margins on their hardware improved somewhat. Services and sales divisions are doing well also. Would wait for a bit of a pullback.

BUY

Starting to like this stock at this price. Have announced a bit of a restructuring and he is trying to understand that. Below $80 is a good price.
