    IBM - Arvind Krishna to replace Virginia Rometty as CEO in April

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 02:43 PM PST

    ARMONK, N.Y., Jan. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The IBM (NYSE: IBM) Board of Directors has elected Arvind Krishna as Chief Executive Officer of the company and a member of the Board of Directors, effective April 6, 2020. Krishna is currently IBM Senior Vice President for Cloud and Cognitive Software, and was a principal architect of the company's acquisition of Red Hat. James Whitehurst, IBM Senior Vice President and CEO of Red Hat, was also elected by the Board as IBM President, effective April 6, 2020. Virginia Rometty, IBM Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, will continue as Executive Chairman of the Board and serve through the end of the year, when she will retire after almost 40 years with the company.

    "Arvind is the right CEO for the next era at IBM," said Rometty. "He is a brilliant technologist who has played a significant role in developing our key technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud, quantum computing and blockchain. He is also a superb operational leader, able to win today while building the business of tomorrow. Arvind has grown IBM's Cloud and Cognitive Software business and led the largest acquisition in the company's history. Through his multiple experiences running businesses in IBM, Arvind has built an outstanding track record of bold transformations and proven business results, and is an authentic, values-driven leader. He is well-positioned to lead IBM and its clients into the cloud and cognitive era."

    "Jim is also a seasoned leader who has positioned Red Hat as the world's leading provider of open source enterprise IT software solutions and services, and has been quickly expanding the reach and benefit of that technology to an even wider audience as part of IBM," Rometty continued. "In Arvind and Jim, the Board has elected a proven technical and business-savvy leadership team."

    Virginia Rometty, 62, became Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of IBM in 2012. During her tenure she made bold changes to reposition IBM for the future, investing in high value segments of the IT market and optimizing the company's portfolio. Under Rometty's leadership, IBM acquired 65 companies, built out key capabilities in hybrid cloud, security, industry and data, and AI both organically and inorganically, and successfully completed one of the largest technology acquisitions in history. She reinvented more than 50% of IBM's portfolio, built a $21 billion hybrid cloud business and established IBM's leadership in AI, quantum computing and blockchain, while divesting nearly $9 billion in annual revenue to focus the portfolio on IBM's high value, integrated offerings.

    Rometty also established IBM as the industry's leading voice in technology ethics and data stewardship, working relentlessly to usher new technologies safely into society, and enabling people of diverse backgrounds and education levels to participate in the digital future. She has been committed to building talent and skills around the world. She created thousands of New Collar jobs and championed the reinvention of education around the world, including the explosive growth of the six-year Pathways in Technology Early College High Schools, or P-TECHs, which are helping prepare the workforce of the future, serving hundreds of thousands of students in 200 schools and 24 countries.

    "Ginni has provided outstanding leadership for IBM, substantially transforming the company and ushering in a new cloud and cognitive era," said Michael Eskew, Lead Director of the IBM Board of Directors. "She has taken bold strategic actions to reposition IBM for the future, shedding businesses and growing new units organically and through acquisition, all while achieving record diversity and employee engagement and setting the industry standard for responsible technology ethics and data stewardship."

    "With the strong foundation now established by Ginni for IBM's future, the Board is confident that Arvind is the right CEO to lead IBM," Eskew continued. "The Board ran a world-class succession process and found in Arvind a leader with the business acumen, operational skills, and technology vision needed to guide IBM in this fast-moving industry."

    "Arvind thinks and executes squarely at the intersection of business and technology," said Alex Gorsky, Chairman of the Board's Executive Compensation and Management Resources Committee. "He is an ideal leader to succeed Ginni and take IBM and its clients into the next chapter of the cloud and cognitive era. Jim has been a great addition to IBM's leadership team. His considerable business and leadership skills will help IBM grow and flourish, and as President he will help Arvind and IBM continue to accelerate and scale the benefits of Red Hat, while ensuring that Red Hat also preserves its unique culture and commitment to open source innovation."

    "I am thrilled and humbled to be elected as the next Chief Executive Officer of IBM, and appreciate the confidence that Ginni and the Board have placed in me," said Krishna. "IBM has such talented people and technology that we can bring together to help our clients solve their toughest problems. I am looking forward to working with IBMers, Red Hatters and clients around the world at this unique time of fast-paced change in the IT industry. We have great opportunities ahead to help our clients advance the transformation of their business while also remaining the global leader in the trusted stewardship of technology. Jim will be a great partner in the next step of this journey."

    "I am truly honored to be elected as IBM's President," said Whitehurst. "I look forward to working with Arvind, and with IBMers and Red Hatters alike, to continue to bring together the best of our companies and cultures. I've had the opportunity to interact with IBMers across the company over the past few months, and I have been so impressed with the talented and dedicated team we have. When I first joined, I said that I believe we have the opportunity to be the defining technology company of the twenty-first century. After working with our clients, IBMers and Red Hatters over the past months, I am even more convinced of that opportunity today."

    Krishna, 57, is IBM Senior Vice President for Cloud and Cognitive Software, where he leads the IBM business unit that provides the cloud and data platform on which IBM's clients build the future. His current responsibilities also include the IBM Cloud, IBM Security and Cognitive Applications business, and IBM Research. Previously, he was general manager of IBM's Systems and Technology Group's development and manufacturing organization. Prior to that he built and led many of IBM's data-related businesses. He has an undergraduate degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, and a PhD. in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He joined IBM in 1990.

    Whitehurst, 52, is IBM Senior Vice President and CEO of Red Hat, which was acquired by IBM in 2019. He has been an avid advocate for open software as a catalyst for business innovation. During his tenure at Red Hat, revenue grew over eight times and market capitalization by more than 10 times. He joined Red Hat from Delta Airlines, where he drove significant international expansion and as Chief Operating Officer oversaw all aspects of airline operations. Prior to that he was a partner at The Boston Consulting Group. Mr. Whitehurst earned a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Economics from Rice University, and holds an MBA from Harvard Business School.

    "Both Visa and Mastercard have been aggressively focusing on expanding their value-added services businesses via acquisitions with the objective of diversifying the existing revenue base while reducing dependence on the traditional transaction processing fees in order to avoid some of the same challenges impacting Visa's current quarter," Katri told MarketWatch in an email.

    One of those acquisitions is Visa's pending $5.3 billion deal for Plaid, a company whose software enables users to connect their bank accounts with new fintech platforms like PayPal Holdings Inc.'s PYPL+0.39% Venmo.

    My prediction is Shanghai opens @ $2700 down 9% and the Sp500 opens at $3170 down 3%. The reason is because the coronavirus is going to cripple the global economy and the effects have not yet been felt. What are your thoughts/predictions for Monday and why?

    Why should i invest now?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 06:38 AM PST

    So everyone is saying get into the stock market, my wife is pushing hard for it.

    At my work and I'm sure at some of yours also the management is cutting people left and right, hell even " non profit organizations " are cutting as many employees as they can.

    I'm watching less and less being shipped and moved across America, we've seen some trucking company's go out of business. The railroads are acting like everything is good but all they are doing is cutting SO many employees and everything else they can while charging more and not going after new business. It's unsustainable.

    So why should i invest now?

    The Cantillon Effect and Wealth Inequality

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 05:38 AM PST

    Have you heard of the Cantillon effect?

    Wealth inequality is a well documented problem in the United States, and more broadly across the world.

    This rise in wealth inequality over the past 30 years has to a significant extent been the product of monetary policy fuelling a series of asset price bubbles.

    Whenever the market booms, the share of wealth going to those at the very top increases.

    When the boom goes bust, that share drops somewhat - but then comes roaring back even higher with the next asset bubble.

    Also, those the very top are often diversified, so even if their wealth as a group technically goes down due to a stock market crash, as individuals they are generally fine and it is the middle class that bear the brunt of the damage.

    The redistributive effects of money creation were called Cantillon effects by Mark Blaug after the Franco-Irish economist Richard Cantillon who experienced the effect of inflation under the paper money system of John Law at the beginning of the 18th century.

    Cantillon explained that the first ones to receive the newly created money see their incomes rise whereas the last ones to receive the newly created money see their purchasing power decline as consumer price inflation comes about.

    In accordance with the Cantillon effect, inflation can increase inequality depending on the route it takes, but increasing inequality is not a necessary consequence of inflation. If it happened that the poorest in society were the first receivers of the newly created money, then inflation could very well be the cause of decreasing inequality since they get the money first.

    Under modern central banking however, money is created and injected into the economy through the credit route and first affects financial markets.

    Under this system, commercial banks and other financial institutions are not only the first receivers of the newly created money but are also the main producers of credit money.

    This is because banks can grant loans unbacked by base money.

    In a free-banking system, this credit creation power of banks is strictly limited by competition and the clearing process.

    Under central banking however, the need for reserves is relaxed as banks can either sell financial assets to the central bank in open market operations, or the central bank can grant loans to banks at relatively low interest rates.

    In both cases, central banks remove the limits of credit expansion by determining the total reserves in the banking system. In other words, commercial banks and other financial institutions are credited with so-called base money that has not existed before.

    Thus, the economics of Cantillon effects tells us that financial institutions benefit disproportionately from money creation, since they can purchase more goods, services, and assets for still relatively low prices. This conclusion is backed by numerous empirical illustrations.

    For instance, the financial sector contributed massively to the growth of billionaire's wealth.

    One of the most visible consequences of this growth of financial markets triggered by monetary expansion is asset price inflation.

    In a completely sound money system where credit only depends on the amount of saving rather than on fiduciary credit, there is very little room for generalized and persistent asset-price inflation as the amount of funds which can be used to purchase assets is strictly limited. In other words, the phenomenon of asset-price inflation is a child of credit inflation.

    Asset price inflation predominately benefits the richest in society for several reasons.

    1. First of all, the wealthy tend to own more financial assets than the poor in proportion to income.
    2. Secondly, it is easier for the richest individuals to contract debt in order to buy shares that can be sold later at a profit. Since credit easing lowers the interest rate and therefore funding costs, the profits made by selling inflated assets bought at credit will be even greater.
    3. Finally, asset price inflation coming with the growth of financial markets will benefit those working in the financial sector. It will also benefit the CEO's of the publicly traded companies who will be paid more as the market cap of their company increases.

    Hence, the correlation between asset prices and income inequality has been, as expected, very strong.

    Despite this, many economists have failed to see asset-price inflation as a consequence of an inflated money supply.

    The conclusion is: our monetary system itself increases inequality.

    Do NOT buy the dip, warns investor who says a ‘brutal bear market’ looms

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 09:55 AM PST

    Kevin Smith, chief investment officer at Crescat Capital, says the bear case for U.S. stocks has never been stronger" and it's time for investors to be aware of the "gravity" of the current situation.

    "We certainly did not predict the Coronavirus, but it may prove to be the catalyst to tip this market that is trading at truly historic valuation levels after a record long U.S. economic expansion," he told clients in a note this week. "Median EV-to-sales for the S&P 500, based on our work recently reached an insane, euphoric level of 3.6 times, two times than the tech bubble peak."

    He used this chart to tell the story:

    Anyone here tried Genuine Impact's new app?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 08:17 AM PST

    I downloaded the app a couple of days ago. It's basically a stock screener, a bit like Simple Wall St, that ranks stocks and funds. There's quite a few bugs in the app at the moment. They don't have broker account integrations either. But it's quite useful for checking on stocks after the latest news, to get a longer term view of how they're doing. And the rankings make it easy to compare different stocks. Wondering what other people think of it?

    Markets extreme is here Healthy correction or collapse ?

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 11:27 PM PST

    Are we in the beginnings of a downward wave, or do we continue to gallop forward and conquer new highs, or is it just a slight blow to the wing, and the flight to Mars will continue ...

    I don't want to confuse your brain too much, so I'll focus on the graphs - just before those who haven't seen or read the previous post - I recommend reading because there are a number of essential things that are very relevant to this review

    ""A scenario that I think will happen in the markets
    in my opinion there is still where to go in the coming month into February
    NASDAQ to the 9100 area
    SP 500 to area 3320
    Dow Jones to the 29130 area
    From there, there may be an examination of the levels I have listed above - if they will be supported then Moving up will continue - for example the NASDAQ index
    if not then expect to see NASDAQ test again 6800 points "

    What we will have in the markets this time:
    1. lite trend correction

    1. Healthy and deep correction

    3.collapse

    We can see that we have reached a place where extreme is ,Which is why I am quite adamant we will see a correction here
