DN, No detailed analysis because I have no IBM puts at this point. I just looked at the PC and server business, which, along with mainframes, are there only real businesses. We may get an analysis from Earlie, because he always follows Louis' shenanigans. I did find the stock selling one time scams going into the headline number kind of odd, but then, nothing is really odd with IBM.

Everyone knows the tech numbers are fake, even the bulls. The key is whether the dollar and the bond holds. They may not, in which case the fake eps mean nothing. The cowboys will try to run the herd, but it may not work this late in the scam.
