IBM raises dividend by 4.7%

International Business Machines Corp. said Tuesday it will raise its quarterly dividend by 4.7% to $1.57 a share, marking the 23rd-straight year the technology company has boosted its payout. The new dividend, up from $1.50 a share, will be payable June 9 to shareholders of record on May 10. The stock rose 0.4% in morning trade to $146.38. At current prices, the new annual dividend rate would imply a dividend yield of 4.29%, compared with the SPDR Technology Select Sector ETF current dividend yield of 1.35% and the implied yield for the Dow Jones Industrial Average of 2.17%, according to FactSet. IBM's stock has lost 4.5% year to date, while the tech-sector ETF has gained 3.2% and the Dow has slipped 1.1%.

Dow falls nearly 300 points at lows, threatens to give up weekly gain as government bond yields rise

The Dow Jones Industrial Average on Friday was encountering intensifying selling pressure with less than an hour left of trading, with the blue chip gauge on the verge of giving up its weekly gain. Part of the blame for the downdraft accelerating was a rise of the yield in the benchmark 10-year Treasury note to 2.96%, representing the highest since around 2014. Meanwhile, shares of Apple Inc. were powering the decline, cutting about 50 points from the average. Most recently, the Dow was down about 256 points, or 1%, with the benchmark hanging on to a weekly advance of about 0.2%. Apple's stock, off $7, or 4%, also was dragging the broader technology sector lower, with Dow component International Business Machines Corp. share [: IBM] slicing about 20 points from the average. The tech-laden Nasdaq Composite Index was taking the brunt of the intraday tumble among the main benchmarks, off 1.4%, at 7,138. The S&P 500 index was down 1% at 2,666, with tech and the consumer-staples sectors both off nearly 2%, leading losses in the broad-market index. The S&P 500 was holding on to a weekly gain of 0.4%, while the Nasdaq boasts a rise over the 5-session period of 0.5%.

IBM's stock tumbles toward worst post-earnings performance in 5 years

Shares of International Business Machines Corp. tumbled 7.3% in midday trade Wednesday, in the wake of what is shaping up to be the most disappointing earnings report for investors in five years. IBM reported first-quarter earnings late-Tuesday that appeared to beat expectations--some questioned whether it was because of a one-time tax gain--and provided a somewhat downbeat outlook. IBM's results typically disappoint investors, as the stock has declined the day after earnings were reported in 16 of the past 20 quarters. However, Wednesday's selloff is on track to be the biggest one-day post-earnings since April 19, 2013, when the stock plunged 8.3% after first-quarter 2013 results. IBM shares have now lost 2.8% year to date, while the SPDR Technology Select Sector ETF has gained 6.2% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average has edged up 0.3%.

Breaking

IBM and J&J stocks cut 100 points from Dow industrials in early trading

The Dow Jones Industrial Average on Wednesday morning was wrestling with sharp declines in IBM and Johnson & Johnson. Shares of International Business Machines Corp. were off 7.2%, or about $11.50, which equates to a drop of about 80 points, while J&J's stock was contributing a further 24-point retreat in the benchmark, down 2.7%, or about $3.50, in recent action. Overall, the Dow was still managing to rise by about 24 points, or less than 0.1%, at 24,802, with J&J and IBM's tumble slightly offset by gains in Home Depot Inc. Caterpillar Inc. and Boeing Co. 's stocks. A $1 move in any one of the price-weighted Dow's 30 components equates to a swing of 6.89 points in the blue-chip average. The decline in IBM comes after the company reported first-quarter results late-Tuesday, with analysts saying that gains were driven by a one-time tax benefit. Separately, J&J's decline came amid a pair of downgrades from research firms. The New Brunswick, N.J.-based pharmaceutical company reported higher-than-expected sales in its latest quarter and boosted its sales outlook.

Dow opens tentatively higher, but gains limited as IBM's stock sinks after earnings

U.S. stock indexes opened modestly higher Wednesday, putting the Dow on track to build on an earnings-driven rally that has taken it back into positive territory for the year. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 18 points, or less than 0.1%, at 24,804, even as a decline in shares of International Business Machines Corp. , down 6.4%, weighed on the blue-chip gauge, with investors expressing the view that the technology giant isn't progressing fast enough in its quest to become more of a cloud/artificial-intelligence company following its first-quarter results late-Tuesday. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 index gained 0.3% at 2,714, and the Nasdaq Composite Index advanced 0.2% at 7,295. Market participants are awaiting the Federal Reserve's Beige Book at 2 p.m. Eastern Time, an anecdotal reading of business conditions at the central bank's 12 districts.

IBM's stock selloff could shave over 60 points off the Dow's price

Shares of International Business Machines Corp. tumbled 5.7% in premarket trade Wednesday in the wake of a disappointing earnings report, which could be enough to keep the Dow Jones Industrial Average from extending its streak of triple-digit gains to three sessions. IBM's early stock price decline would shave about 64 points off the Dow's price, while Dow futures were last up 78 points. The Dow had run up 212.90 points on Monday and 213.59 points on Tuesday.
