Hewlett-Packard (HPQ - commentary - Cramer's Take): A month ago, the stock tested $40.85 and has been moving sideways to down since then. The downside is 25% over the next three years. IBM (IBM - commentary - Cramer's Take): Big Blue helped the Dow Jones Industrial Average reach its all-time high on Friday with a multiyear high of its own at $95.80, which is above my semiannual pivot at $94.55. I see the risk of a 20% share-price decline over the next three years. Intel (INTC - commentary - Cramer's Take): It reached $22.50 a month ago and has been a drag on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange Semiconductor index, or SOX, ever since. Intel is 14.6% undervalued, but with declining momentum, it is not likely to achieve its fair value. It's more likely to decline 20% over the next three years. Microsoft (MSFT - commentary - Cramer's Take): Like IBM, Microsoft helped the Dow to its all-time high on Friday. Its high at $30.23 is just 3 cents above a ceiling set between April 2002 and November 2004. Microsoft has a downside risk of 30% over the next three years. Motorola (MOT - commentary - Cramer's Take): This stock illustrates just how fast a big-cap tech stock can decline by more than 20%. It peaked at $26.30 on Oct. 13 and traded as low as $20.53, down 21.9% in just two months. Motorola also illustrates how its annual pivots influence a stock, once they are tested. Its annual pivots are $20.96 and $23.10 -- powerful magnets for all of 2006. It still has another 15% of downside risk over the next three years. Nokia (NOK - commentary - Cramer's Take): This name saw a 22.3% correction in 2006, from its April 21 high of $23.47 to its July 17 low of $18.23. Nokia has 20% of downside risk over the next three years.
