IBM Just Crashed. If Wall Street Pros Are Right The Stock Could Soar From Here

Goldman Sachs jumped 7.4% and added 459 Dow points as IBM posted its worst market day since 1987, analysts said.

  • IBM shares plummeted 25.2% to around $217 on Tuesday, marking the company's worst single-day performance since the 1987 Black Monday crash and erasing about $67 billion in market capitalization.
  • CEO Arvind Krishna warned investors the quarter was "worse than our expectations," citing IBM's failure to adapt as customers shifted spending from software toward AI hardware and servers.
  • Krishna noted that Anthropic's Mythos model stalled "numerous large deals" as clients weighed cybersecurity implications, while demand for AI data centers made servers and memory harder to obtain.
  • Financial giant Goldman Sachs shielded the Dow from IBM's impact, surging 7.4% and single-handedly adding 459 points after reporting a strong quarter, while Micron Technology also gained 5.1%.
  • Wall Street anticipates IBM to report $17.2 billion in quarterly revenue on July 22, with investors focused on whether the firm can regain momentum amid ongoing AI-driven market rotation into hardware.
