IBM Earnings Dissappoint -- As Expected

IBM's second-quarter earnings report has just hit the wires and the stock has dropped over 3.25% in after-hours trading. Revenue was below analysts' consensus at $23.7 Bil, while EPS came in at $2.61 per share. I published my estimates for the Tech Giant on June 15th and advised my readers to "Buy Puts" just before today's market close. Once again, it appears that another Trading Recommendation has been proven accurate.  If the stock opens tomorrow's session at it's current after-market price, those who followed my advice would incur a gain on their option position of approximately 30%.
