IBM is not only currently led by the company's first female CEO, but some of the hottest industry sectors within the company are also led by women. Eileen Lowry is the Global Program Director for IBM Blockchain and Rachel Liddell is the Manager of Watson Client Relations. The two are proud to be leading in industries that are typically regarded as male dominated. When asked how they ended up in the tech sector, Lowry said she always dreamed of working in the field and was able to work with innovators and used her personal fascination to push her career forward. Liddell says she met the right people at the right time, and she's glad she did.

US businesses that rely on Chinese imports express relief and anxiety
American businesses that rely on Chinese goods are reacting with muted relief after the U.S. and China agreed to pause their exorbitant tariffs on each other’s products for 90 days.

Importers still face relatively high tariffs, however, as well as uncertainty over what will happen in the coming weeks and months. The temporary truce was announced as retailers and their suppliers are looking to finalize their plans and orders for the holiday shopping season. They’re concerned a mad scramble to get goods onto ships will lead to bottlenecks and increased shipping costs.
