Article Abstract:

The acceleration of technological innovation in the electronics industry is shrinking the size and increasing the complexity of components, trends that businesses and consumers have come to expect. Marketplace globalization and expense reduction have also become as common to this sector as they have to other industries, but research expenses remain important. There are several good stocks in this industry for investors in late 1998 and early 1999.
