Technology Stock

   Today the technology field is ever-changing and the companies that are involved in it have to always evolve and make wise decisions regarding their future. So in our class we are currently assessing the stock in these companies based off of  their consistency and their possibilities of growth in the future.  These are some of the companies I've chosen:

1.) Advanced Micro Device Inc.(AMD)

AMD was a good selection for me because their business seems to promising for the future. Their goods are definitely need for the future as the world will constantly need computers and the internal components that go along with them.

2. Edgewater Technology Inc.

Edgewater Technology, Inc.  is a consulting firm that provides specialty services in the areas of business advisory, analytics, data management and technology to its customer base.  This kind of business is supplemental to other business which could mean longevity in long run.

3.) Chyron Corp.



Chyron Corporation is a provider of graphics as a service for on-air and digital video applications including newsrooms, studios, sports broadcasting facilities, and corporate video environments.Media is always going to have it's place in society and the equipment is always going to advance at some point. A fair investment in my opinion.

The future of these companies will always be unknown but all we can do is predict and make our wisest decision. But the technology field will be have purpose for a very long time.
