Week ahead: Easy does it
Scattered trade shows, and earnings from Juniper and Infosys, should help while away the time as the tech world returns to business after the July 4 holiday.
There should be plenty of time to nurse those sunburns and upset tummies, as the tech world takes a breather between the Fourth of July and a slew of major earnings announcements and high-profile trade shows coming after the middle of the month.
Action this week is limited to a few midtier networking trade shows, an open-source software convention and earnings announcements by Juniper Networks and IT consultant Infosys.
