NI Technology Updates Outlooks for Google, ARM Holdings, Altera, Xilinx and Texas Instruments

PRINCETON, N.J., March 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, announced it has updated outlooks for Google (Nasdaq: GOOG), ARM Holdings (Nasdaq: ARMH), Altera (Nasdaq: ALTR), Xilinx (Nasdaq: XLNX) and Texas Instruments (NYSE: TXN).

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, McWilliams is now intently focused on the catalysts that will generate profits in 2010.  

Most recently, McWilliams identified the timing of the market's latest dip and rebound for Next Inning readers in his quarterly Strategy Review. McWilliams has also just published a special report in the emerging and volatile solar energy sector that identifies the key drivers for the industry as well as likely winners and losers.  These reports, as well as McWilliams' regular commentary, are available for free to trial subscribers.

In addition, a Next Inning trial subscription also offers access to the "10 Tech Trends for 2010" special report, in which McWilliams lays out this year's key tech sector stories from cloud computing to virtualization to data centers and solid state drives, and McWilliams' highly acclaimed State of Tech reports that offer in-depth sector by sector coverage of over 65 leading tech companies and McWilliams' specific guidance on which stocks he thinks investors should own and which should be avoided.  Finally, subscribers will have access to McWilliams daily commentary and actionable alerts that have been providing frequent profit opportunities for Next Inning subscribers for years.  To take advantage of this offer and receive these reports for free, please visit the following link:

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:

-- Has Google's massive size become a liability for investors?  What is McWilliams' view of Google's handling of its recent run in with the Chinese government?  What does this episode tell us about Google as a company?

-- McWilliams suggested buying ARM Holdings in December 2008 when the stock was trading just under $4.00.  In that report he advised Next Inning readers that ARM had literally a 100% market share in smartphones, and as sales ramped during the coming years, the price of ARM would double.  With the price now hovering around $10, does McWilliams think that ARM has reached its full value or that the continuing ramp in demand for smartphones will send it higher yet?

-- McWilliams advised Next Inning readers to build strategic positions in Altera and Xilinx last year when both stocks were trading in the teens. Following earnings releases from both of the companies last January, he suggested investors should ignore the negative reports from Wall Street and that the best was yet to come.  What are the factors that McWilliams cites in his Paradigm Paper, "Trends Favor Programmable Logic" that he thinks will continue to drive demand for these companies and what does he see as the current fair valuations for the two stocks?

-- It's well known that Texas Instruments will open the first ever 300mm analog and mixed-signal semiconductor fabrication plant later this year. However, what's not well known is exactly how TI will leverage this new capability.  Based on decades of experience in the analog and mixed-world, McWilliams has a pretty good idea of TI's strategy and what companies will feel the weight of the new competitive force.  You can read McWilliams' thoughts on this game changer in our most recent monthly semiconductor sales report.

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 251% since its inception versus 24% for the S&P 500.
