In December 2018 the government shutdown caused a drop in the stock market. Among other effects this lowered the balance in my IRA on January first 2019 SO my RMD was less~! Ha~! The market recovered over time, but my Required Minimum Distribution had already been determined. Now year end is coming up again, and I'm calling on ya, Trump~! Do this "tax cut" for us old gray-haired seniors!

The company contributed $638 million to the non-U.S. plans in 2016. IBM does not plan to make any contributions to the U.S. plans because it's not legally required. No contributions to those plans were made in 2017."

I cannot help being reminded of this term I learned about a while back: TBmG(True Blue mini-Ginnis). I watched the replay of the Jim Cramer interview of Ginni Rometty on his Mad Money show a couple of days ago. Behind them was a room filled with TBmGs. Of course Ginni did not call them that. She called them "New Collar Skills of the Future." ? She also said "50% of IBM is millennials that are here." ? She further explained: "So you change the design thinking, you-- put them on ag...ile, which is co-location. Change the tools. Multidisciplinary. Minimum viable products. Small teams. And then you give them contemporary tools, co-location. So that's what you're seeing here. And, boy, we've been at that. We've done this to workspaces in 300 places around the world." ? Her final words of wisdom: "This IBM will change the world one more time." ? Disclaimer: I am not a millennial nor a New Collar Skill nor a TBmG.

The closing of a few major deals were delayed, pushing revenue into the future. The second half looks better for Big Blue. https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/04/21/this-is-why-ibms-revenue-fell-short.aspx

Yahoo confirmed that they no longer provide support for Yahoo Groups. A comment was posted by a Yahoo Customer Care representative that makes this point clear: “Customer Care no longer provides support for Groups (at all) and that extends to the community since 'they' aren't providing the resources needed to make that a supportable forum. Our team is only 7 people and the company's focus is Mail and Sports.” Posted by ADMIN EchoSanders 2/27/17 10:56AM https://forums.yahoo.net/t5/Errors/Users-with-accounts-with-non-Yahoo-email-addressess-cannot/m-p/198655/highlight/true#M48273

Copy of message first posted on https://www.facebook.com/watchingIBM/ “I am asking that this message get posted anonymously in as many forums as possible. I have read this morning that Donald Trump plans to impose a 35 percent tax on companies that cut American jobs and then relocate these jobs in other countries. Trump has been critical of IBM for laying off 500 workers in Minneapolis and moving their jobs to India and other countries. Trump may not be aware that IBM has been doing this for over a decade. I know many people who were laid off with a severance package that required them to first train replacements from India how to do their job. I have read that this approach was used in hundreds of cases in many US locations. Many people have stated this in the IBM Yahoo groups for many years. What about all of these past firings? Will there be some tax levied against IBM or some payment to the fired employees for this practice used over the last decade? I hope so…”
