IBM Shares Crash 25%, Its Worst Day Ever, on a Surprise Earnings Warning
- IBM stock fell about 25% on July 14, its worst single day on record, after the company warned that second-quarter results came in well below forecasts.
- The culprit, chief executive Arvind Krishna said, was a late-quarter rush by customers to buy scarce memory and hardware, at the expense of the software IBM sells.
