Buy signal of the day from "The Analyst's Apprentice". --QS NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Prudential Securities Inc. started coverage of International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) and Sun Microsystems Inc. (SUNW) with an accumulate rating on the shares of the two companies. Analyst Kimberly Alexy wrote in research reports that she didn't judge the stocks to be strong buys because there are "limited near-term catalysts for the sector until concerns surrounding the impact of (year 2000) are alleviated."
