An Open Letter to IBM CEO Virginia Rometty

By Michael A. Robinson, Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI - January 11, 2016

Whenever a CEO takes the stage at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, we investors expect them to reveal something meaningful... innovative... in a word - big.

But after IBM Corp. CEO Virginia Rometty's keynote speech, I was left unimpressed - and so was Wall Street. Last week, shares of IBM fell to five-year lows, off nearly 19% over last six months.

This sudden drop is only the latest bad news for the once-mighty IBM. And it's just one reason why I've penned a letter to Rometty and offered her a custom-made action plan.

If she listens, my plan will rescue IBM by making it the undisputed leader in one of the fastest-growing sectors of the market.

International Business Machines Corp. (NYSE: IBM) stock has struggled over the past two years for sure, despite some promising upside for the first half of 2015.

By Jim Bach, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @JimBach22 - May 28, 2015

By Jim Bach, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @JimBach22 - May 7, 2015
