The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"I'm not buying the drop, but I am sniffing around. I'd rather buy IBM than Micron."

I own both, lol. I own MU based on momentum, and IBM based on fundamentals. These days, I assume either one is vulnerable to a sharp drop, though I would have bet it would be MU rather than IBM. I could understand a continued decline in IBM, but 25% in one day seems like an overreaction. As you note, IBM is well-run and is very solid in a great many growing markets. But I have been wrong before, and if the deferred business does not materialize, I will reassess.
