IBM Surges After First Quarter Profit Gain
IBM posted a 5.2 percent rise in first quarter profit and analysts expect improved 1982 prospects. With about 593 million shares valued near $38 billion, concerns over antitrust litigation, a stagnant dividend, and a strong dollar weighed on performance from 1978 to 1981. Some anticipate a dividend increase by late 1982 or early 1983 as earnings growth continues.

The doctor explains the issue is usually benign, likening it to a small skin bruise, and notes a low dose estrogen can stop bleeding though not commonly used. The reader is advised to seek reassurance from prior exam and ignore the symptom.
