Shares in https://www.theguardian.com/technology/ibm">IBM plunged more than 25% on Tuesday after the US tech giant released disappointing preliminary second-quarter results.
IBM’s stock was on track for an even steeper single-day decline than it suffered during the 1987 “Black Monday” crash.
IBM had issued a profit warning and blamed shifts in corporate customers’ spending.
The company said revenue for the three months ending in June came in at $17.2bn, up just 1% year-over-year.
