Forbes.com - Magazine ArticleWhere Not To Put Your Money In Tech For 2006

As shares of Google and Apple Computer reach for infinity and beyond, it's high time to take a look at some technology stocks whose futures appear somewhat less stellar.

By many accounts, 2006 will be rotten for Solectron (nyse: SLR - news - people ), an electronics-manufacturing-services company, as well as a host of chip-related companies, including Lattice Semiconductor (nasdaq: LSCC - news - people ), Novellus Systems (nasdaq: NVLS - news - people ), Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates (nasdaq: VSEA - news - people ) and Applied Materials (nasdaq: AMAT - news - people ).

Analysts are telling investors to avoid digital-video recording company TiVo (nasdaq: TIVO - news - people ) and the Chinese Internet portal Baidu (nasdaq: BIDU - news - people ). Also set to underperform are business applications providers Agile Software (nasdaq: AGIL - news - people ) and Mercury Interactive (nasdaq: MERGE - news - people ).

Of course, there's no guarantee that these stocks will perform as predicted. Just don't say we didn't warn you.
