Every time there's a bit of AI news or acquisition activi I'm really speechless about IBM this time. Every time there's a bit of AI news or acquisition activity, the market immediately takes a hit. The acquisition of Confluent was even directly scared off by the voting, turning into a dog, -5% and saying you don't feel it is lying... Old shareholders have really been worn down to the point of losing confidence by these big companies' indecisiveness in innovation.

What's the point of watching this show, sigh! ### Related Stocks - [IBM.US - IBM](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IBM.US.md) - [CFLT.US - Confluent](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CFLT.US.md) --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
