PRINCETON, N.J., April 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on technology stocks, has issued updated outlooks for ARM Holdings (Nasdaq: ARMH), Harmonic (Nasdaq: HLIT), Sanmina-SCI (Nasdaq: SANM), STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), and Texas Instruments (Nasdaq: TXN).

During 2012, Next Inning editor Paul McWilliams predicted both the spring and fall corrections as well as the rally that started in November and carried through the first quarter of 2013.  On the day the November rally started, he advised readers it would lift the NASDAQ by as much as 18% by the end of March 2013.  As we know now, that is exactly what happened.

Topics discussed in the latest reports include:

-- ARM Holdings: Why does McWilliams think investors should avoid ARM Holdings, despite the fact that it is a great company with a compelling growth story? While the press isolates on the competitive threat ARM poses towards Intel, are there valid reasons to also consider the growing threat Intel poses to ARM in the mobile markets?  What other competitive threats is ARM facing today that haven't yet made the headlines?

-- Harmonic: Why does McWilliams believe the introduction of CCAP technology will substantially boost revenue growth potential for Harmonic?  What advantages does McWilliams think Harmonic has over its competitors in this emerging market?  How might the new Ultra-HD standard impact Harmonic's business? What other trends does McWilliams think will benefit Harmonic this year?

-- Sanmina:  What is Wall Street overlooking in the Sanmina equation? Does McWilliams see more upside ahead for Sanmina over the next six to 12 months, despite high volatility?

-- STMicro:  What company-specific factors have weighed on STMicro? Does McWilliams see other factors shifting over time to work in the company's favor? In what critical growth market has STMicro recently overtaken Texas Instruments to be ranked as number one by market share?  Could STMicro shares move above $10 within the next three to six months?

-- Texas Instruments:  McWilliams turned a cold shoulder to Texas Instruments when it announced it would buy National Semi.  According to McWilliams, TI was overpaying and he pulled no punches when he said investors should sell at the then current mid-$30 price.  However, he flipped to a bullish view and suggested buying the stock last year when the price dipped into the mid-$20s. What caused McWilliams to reverse his view on TI, and with the stock now back into the mid-$30s does he see more upside ahead?
