Leading Tech Analyst Publishes Investor Updates and Earnings Previews for Oclaro, STEC, Qualcomm, EZchip Semiconductor, and Nvidia

PRINCETON, N.J., Nov. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on technology stocks, has published updated outlooks for Oclaro (Nasdaq: OCLR), STEC (Nasdaq: STEC), Qualcomm (Nasdaq: QCOM), EZchip Semiconductor (Nasdaq: EZCH), and Nvidia (Nasdaq: NVDA).

So far, the roadmap Editor Paul McWilliams laid out for 2012 has been extremely accurate.  In March, just two days before the market peaked and began its over two-month slide, he warned Next Inning readers that stock prices were peaking and a correction was headed our way.  Following this, once the markets bottomed, he predicted we would see prices rally through the Q2 earnings season.  As it turned out, this was one of the strongest rallies the market has seen in a very long time.

However, following the close on September 14, 2012, McWilliams published his most recent Strategy Review and, in that, predicted again that the markets were due for another drop ahead of the November election.  This time he nailed the year-to-date high to the day.  If you are a tech investor, you'll want to be sure to read what McWilliams predicts will happen next.

McWilliams spent a decades-long career in the technology industry and has earned a reputation for his skill in communicating complex technology trends to individual investors and professional analysts alike. His reports have won over readers with their ability to unravel the complexities of the industry and, more importantly, identify which companies are likely to be the winners and losers as technology trends change.

McWilliams' highly acclaimed earnings previews are now being published, providing critical intelligence on dozens of tech sector firms ahead of their quarterly earnings reports. The reports, which identify the quarter's likely winners and losers, are available for free to Next Inning trial subscribers.

Editor Paul McWilliams' recent reports cover the following topics and more:

-- Oclaro: Where does Oclaro fit into the competitive landscape in the fiber optics sector? What strategies does McWilliams see as valid ways for investors to cover the fiber optics sector? What is McWilliams favorite stock in the fiber optics sector and what stock does McWilliams think investors who want deeper coverage should pair with this stock?

-- STEC: What are the main challenges facing STEC? Has STEC developed durable differentiation that will allow it to fend off competition from larger companies?  Will demand for NAND Flash Solid State Drives (SSD) explode as some pundits are forecasting?

-- Qualcomm: After nearly a decade of presenting Qualcomm as a "swing-trade" stock, what caused McWilliams to flip to a long-term buy and hold view early in 2010 when Qualcomm dipped into the $30s?  Why did he state with total confidence last year that Qualcomm was set to break resistance at $60? After a well-timed call to hedge by selling covered calls when Qualcomm subsequently moved to the high-$60s, does McWilliams now see another upside opportunity at Qualcomm?

-- EZchip: What is the inside story on EZchip's new NPS network processor for "smart networks?"  What differentiates it from all other network processors in the market today?  How is it likely to change the way networking equipment is designed?  Could it be the tipping point that gets Juniper Networks to reconsider using EZchip in new designs?  Would using the NPS processor substantially improve the performance of Juniper's SRX security router?

-- Nvidia:  Will a weak consumer spending environment continue to work against Nvidia in the near term? What two positive catalysts may come into play for Nvidia investors in the longer term? Are Nvidia shares oversold at current levels, presenting investors with a buying opportunity ahead of the company's earnings report this week?
