IBM Stock On Track To Hit All-Time Highs On Anthropic Deal

IBM’s (IBM) shares rose nearly 3% in Tuesday’s pre-market session to head toward a fresh all-time high after the company said it has teamed up with AI firm Anthropic in a new collaboration aimed at boosting enterprise software development through artificial intelligence. 

The partnership will embed Claude, Anthropic’s advanced large language model (LLM), into IBM’s software tools, starting with a new AI-first integrated development environment (IDE).

On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the stock remained in ‘bullish’ territory amid ‘normal’ message volume levels. 

IBM clients are currently testing the new IDE in a private preview, and internal trials among 6,000 IBM users have shown average productivity boosts of 45%, delivering both time and cost efficiencies.

The IDE, which supports multiple programming languages, aims to simplify and automate the software development lifecycle. Claude will assist engineers in managing tasks such as updating legacy code, generating context-aware code, and conducting automated reviews.

“This partnership enhances our software portfolio with advanced AI capabilities while maintaining the governance, security, and reliability that our clients have come to expect. We’re giving development teams AI that fits how enterprises work, not experimental tools that create new risks,” said SVP, Software at IBM, Dinesh Nirmal.

IBM also unveiled a new guide titled “Architecting Secure Enterprise AI Agents with MCP,” verified by Anthropic. This framework introduces the Agent Development Lifecycle (ADLC), which outlines the process of building, deploying, and maintaining AI agents within enterprise environments. 

IBM stock has gained over 31% year-to-date and over 27% in the last 12 months.
