INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP
INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP (IBM) has a dated narrative snapshot, but its priced-in model claim is temporarily suppressed because the model-solve record is unavailable or has changed.
3,397 institutional managers reported holding IBM in 13F filings for the quarter ended 2026-03-31. Together they hold about 61% of the company; the top 10 hold 35%. 119 opened new positions that quarter. Held by Vanguard Group, BlackRock, State Street, among others. On the short side, 29.9M shares were sold short as of the 2026-06-15 count, about 3% of shares outstanding (2.6 days of typical volume to cover).
Quarterly 13F filings arrive up to 45 days after quarter end, so the picture is never current (filed through 2026-05-29). Nothing here is investment advice.

Share counts are split-adjusted; repurchase totals are gross of share issuance. Nothing here is investment advice.
