Atta boy, Big Blue! By Jeff Clabaugh, CBS MarketWatch Last Update: 4:53 PM ET Apr 22, 1999 NewsWatch NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Come in with an earnings report as pleasing as IBM's, and your investors feel vindicated. A much better story than last time around, too. Three months ago when IBM's numbers missed the mark, its stock followed with its biggest one day decline in three years. See related story. At RagingBull's IBM (IBM: news, msgs) board, investors sounded relieved and rewarded. Said beachgal: ..."A TOAST TO US!!! The believers. IBM is a world-class corporation and a first class stock. Thanks...for keeping the faith." molester ..."IBM finally came out of a couple of month slump and hit a homer! GO IBM!!!" IBM's good news gave some the go ahead for more Compaq [c: cpq] bashing too. JRMoney ...Congrats to all IBM holders, but this is good news for Dell (DELL: news, msgs) and it clearly shows that Compaq was full of bull, and they should be banned on the NYSE for false and misleading statements. I haven't seen a tech miss estimates yet, except for Compaq. WHO SAID THERE WAS A PC SLOWDOWN? Only sorry Compaq. IBM results clearly show the PC market is still intact and ROBUST."
