IBM - International Business Machines Stock Performance

All calculations assume all dividends are reinvested to purchase additional shares. Taxes and commissions are not factored into calculations. Data is property of 1stock1 and written permission must be granted before redistributing any data (in part or in whole).

IBM has not performed as well as many of the other stocks listed in our guide. As you can see, you would have earned nearly the same amount if you had invested at the beginning of 1985, 1990, or 1995 with a little more than $50,000 at the end of 2011. However, if you go back another five years to 1980, your $5,000 investment would have grown to over $129,000 today.
