IBM Stock Under Sustained Selling Pressure Amid Quantum Computing Hopes

IBM stock has continued its downward trend, trading at $219.36 despite CEO Arvind Krishna's optimism about the potential of quantum computing to unlock breakthroughs across various industries.

Krishna appeared on CNBC's Mad Money with Jim Cramer to discuss the future of quantum computing and its potential applications in materials, medicine, and energy.

However, technical indicators suggest that IBM is under sustained selling pressure, with momentum signals remaining negative. The company's price remains well below major moving averages, including the MA-20 ($243.62), MA-50 ($260.41), and MA-200 ($270.76).

The expected price range for next week is between $215 and $227, with a probability of further declines outweighing a recovery.
