Recent news
most recent scored articles · the chip is the article’s score · click to openThe article contrasts Boeing, whose stock is returning to the low end of a 6.5-year range after disclosure that $10 billion in free cash flow may not reach shareholders until 2029, with IBM’s Q3 2022 results. It reports IBM revenue growth of 5%, operating income growth of 8% and earnings-per-share growth of 11%, below hyperscale cloud competitors but described as respectable for the mainframe-era company.
IBM, the DOE-funded Quantum Science Center at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and AMD launched a platform combining quantum and high-performance computing to develop methods for protecting quantum information from errors. The initiative supports the Department of Energy’s Quantum Genesis Mission, which targets a scientifically relevant quantum computer by 2028.
Across the last eight quarters, IBM generated more total revenue than Salesforce, but IBM experienced regular first-quarter revenue declines from the previous quarter. Salesforce maintained a smoother, consistently rising revenue path that the article describes as more stable and predictable.
MarketBeat reports a combined “Moderate Buy” rating for IBM from 34 covering Wall Street firms: 19 recommend buying, 13 recommend holding, and 2 recommend selling. The article provides no price targets or company-specific operating developments.
On 27 October in Atlanta, IBM made Agent Identity and Vault 2.2 generally available, adding named agent identities and credentials that expire after one job so Vault can block calls outside the agent's owner, permission, or allowed access. IBM also introduced previews of Discover, for finding agents and tools across major AI platforms, and Contain, a sandbox with a kill switch, but the article notes these previews do not revoke credentials already running in production.
