RIM stock falls eight percent following CEO transition

We rarely meddle with stock news around these parts, but this was a pretty significant piece of meat to chew on. After Research in Motion introduced Thorsten Heins as the new CEO last night and again in a conference call this morning, the company’s stock price tumbled a whopping 8.47 percent. When it comes to what kind of difference the transition will make for the struggling company, we haven’t had a high amount of confidence; while we hope for the best and want to see RIM turn things around, the falling stock appears to indicate that we’re not alone in expressing concerns about this morning’s events.

John Opel, IBM CEO during onset of the PC era, dies at 86

John Roberts Opel, the former IBM CEO who helped usher in the PC era, died last week at the age of 86. A native of Kansas City, MO, Opel received his MBA from the University of Chicago in 1949, after fighting in the Philippines and Okinawa during World War II.
