This guide covers how the SOL-to-stock flow works, the live price, the fees, the risks, and the steps to place your first order.

About the stock
IBM is a technology and consulting company that provides hybrid-cloud software, IT consulting services, mainframe and infrastructure hardware, and is investing in artificial intelligence and quantum computing. Its revenue comes mainly from software (including Red Hat and automation tools), consulting, and infrastructure such as its enterprise mainframe systems.
The bull case
Investors bullish on IBM cite its pivot toward higher-margin hybrid-cloud and AI software, the recurring nature of much of its software and consulting revenue, and its long-standing enterprise relationships.
Key risks
IBM has a history of uneven growth, faces stiff competition in cloud and AI from larger rivals, and its consulting business is sensitive to shifts in corporate IT budgets.
