NI Technology Updates Outlooks for DragonWave, PMC-Sierra, QLogic, Silicon Labs, and Altera

PRINCETON, N.J., July 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, has published updated outlooks for DragonWave (Nasdaq: DRWI), PMC-Sierra (Nasdaq: PMCS), QLogic (Nasdaq: QLGC), Silicon Labs (Nasdaq: SLAB) and Altera (Nasdaq: ALTR).

Editor Paul McWilliams has displayed uncanny accuracy in identifying winners and losers during this challenging and historic period for the markets. After logging a very successful 2009 that included suggesting his readers buy a number of stocks that subsequently posted gains of 100% to 400%, he advised readers on May 3rd that the markets were heading for a correction.  As many investors are painfully aware, McWilliams was right again.

Now that the major indexes have fallen more than the ten percent required to classify the drop as a "correction," McWilliams has outlined what he views as the real risks and advised Next Inning readers how he thinks things will play out during the balance of 2010.

Trial subscribers will receive the Next Inning Summer Strategy Review, and freshly published and highly acclaimed State of Tech reports that offer in-depth sector by sector coverage of over 65 leading tech companies and specific guidance on which stocks he thinks investors should own and which should be avoided.  These reports, as well as McWilliams' regular commentary and detailed earnings previews, are available for free to trial subscribers.

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:

-- Should DragonWave investors be concerned about potential competition from "millimeter-wave" backhaul radios?  What applications do these products target and how do they compare to DragonWave's offerings?  Is there evidence to suggest that Clearwire intends to move forward with DragonWave during the second major phase of its rollout and how much revenue does McWilliams think this will mean for DragonWave?  Does McWilliams have a positive view of the stock?

-- PMC-Sierra has moved up 93% since being listed as a good speculative investment in McWilliams' "Undervalued Tech Stocks for 2009" report.  What are the primary competitive risk factors facing PMC-Sierra?  What are the upside drivers that McWilliams expects we'll hear about when PMC-Sierra reports results for its second calendar quarter?  What is McWilliams' fair value range for the stock and how much upside does it represent?

-- On what two critical fronts is QLogic leading the industry?  What is the competitive landscape facing QLogic, and what are the key opportunities that may generate upside for the company?  Are there reasons to believe QLogic has a lead on Mellanox in the rapidly emerging InfiniBand market?  What is McWilliams' fair value range for QLogic and how much upside does it represent?

-- How well is Silicon Labs positioned in the exploding touchscreen market? Where else is Silicon Labs building traction right now?  What one product does McWilliams think will lead to a substantial increase in business for Silicon Labs during the next twelve months?  Could Silicon Labs shares be worth notably more than $50 in the near term?

-- In spite of the bearish views expressed by Merrill Lynch's semiconductor analyst earlier this year, McWilliams advised Next Inning readers that Altera and Xilinx were stocks to consider buying as strategic investments. With the price of Altera up now roughly 33% since McWilliams shared his opposing opinion with Next Inning readers it appears tech investors are seeing the situation his way.  What is Merrill Lynch missing about the Altera story and why does McWilliams think what we're seeing now is just seeing the start of a positive secular trend for Altera and Xilinx?  What does he see as the "fair value" for these two programmable logic leaders?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 243% since its inception versus 22% for the S&P 500.
