Bulls ⚔ Bears · how Reddit is debating it

Bull case

1 stances
  • Considered a fundamentally good company.
  • Quantum computing initiatives are viewed as a bullish catalyst.
  • Undervalued relative to Broadcom, with a massive $60B revenue and a market cap under $300B, making it an attractive M&A target.
  • Owns critical full-stack infrastructure assets like Red Hat and mainframe tech that Broadcom currently lacks.
  • Shareholders would likely benefit from a significant acquisition premium if Broadcom takes over.

Bear case

0 stances
  • Traditional superconducting quantum approach requires keeping the entire machine near absolute zero, leading to parabolic cooling costs and scalability issues.
  • Realized significant financial loss indicating poor trade execution or timing.
  • Consulting division exhibits flat growth, indicating stagnant performance in a major business segment.
  • Broadcom's aggressive cost-cutting history could negatively impact IBM's enterprise relationships and R&D.
