IBM remains a Buy despite stock pullback and deal delays, with Q3 results on Oct 21 as key catalyst.

IBM's stock has dropped about 5% without new earnings reports, mainly due to delays in closing major mainframe and software deals expected by year-end. The company aims to meet its operating margin expansion target through productivity gains, despite slower revenue growth and margin pressure from the Confluent acquisition. IBM's free cash flow guidance of $10.9 billion for the second half of the year depends on strong Q4 performance, but the dividend appears secure even if targets are missed. Investors are watching the Q3 results on October 21 as the next important event to assess progress and deal closures.

IBM's recent stock drop is noted alongside Pluang's Technology-sector market data for context. For readers following technology stocks, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 11, 2026 14:11 WIB: out of 150 priced US technology stocks, 104 rose and 46 fell.
