The following video is part of senior technology analyst Eric Bleeker's "Top 25 Tech Stocks" series, where he reveals 25 great tech companies for investors looking for new ideas across the sector.

In today's edition, Eric looks at venerable old Big Blue. It's a company he's previously recommended investors purchase, and despite its steep run-up and higher valuation than peers such as Hewlett-Packard, Eric still believes IBM is a great stock that will be a long-term outperformer.

Where's IBM finding its growth? Increasingly, the answer comes from the astounding growth rate of data. We're creating nearly 60% more data every year, and that data needs to be stored and -- more importantly -- analyzed. To take advantage of this gigantic technology opportunity, The Motley Fool has compiled a new report called "The Only Stock You Need to Profit From the NEW Technology Revolution." The report highlights a company that has gained 225% since first recommended by Fool analysts but still has plenty of room left to run.
