As Buffett Dumps IBM Shares, Board Needs to Oust Ginni Rometty

In the first quarter of this year, IBM’s revenue fell 3% to $18.2 billion. Earnings fell 11% to $1.85 per share. Rometty said:

“In the first quarter, both the IBM Cloud and our cognitive solutions again grew strongly, which fueled robust performance in our strategic imperatives,” said Ginni Rometty, IBM chairman, president and chief executive officer. “In addition, we are developing and bringing to market emerging technologies such as blockchain and quantum, revolutionizing how enterprises will tackle complex business problems in the years ahead.”

That is about what she has said for each quarter for over five years. It hasn’t helped.

Buffet never was interested in running the company, providing mentor-ship, or otherwise lifting a finger to help the company succeed. All he cared about were the dividend checks no matter how poorly the company was run or how many employee lives were destroyed because of mismanagement.

I for one hope his investment turns-out to be the worst he's ever made.
