IBM Not doing well

[temi]

IBM is an industry bellwether and can affect the industry as a whole
IBM, the world's largest computer firm, has reported worse-than-expected earnings in the first quarter, shocking investors and sending its shares lower.
New York-based IBM blamed a failure to close business deals and slow economic growth in key European markets.

Net profit in the three months to 31 March was $1.4bn (£745m) from £1.36bn a year earlier. Sales were $22.9bn, less than the $23bn analysts had forecast.

Yea, ur totally right termi. IBM seems to have gone down the drain since January 03 or 2005. Look at this, I got from NYSE.com

Current share price is only 74.19, which means that after 3 months, IBM stocks went down about 20 bucks, which is a lot in terms of stock.... Well, I guess that IBM's brand value will go a couple of ranks down
