PRINCETON, N.J., Jan. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, has published updated outlooks for NXP Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NXPI), Mindspeed Technologies (Nasdaq: MSPD), Cree (Nasdaq: CREE), TriQuint Semiconductor (Nasdaq: TQNT), and Lightwave Logic (OTC: LWLG).

Next Inning readers leverage the insight you can only get from an industry insider.  Next Inning editor Paul McWilliams was a tech industry executive for more than two decades.  Not only does he know how things work from the inside and how to spot a winning business model, he also has a long and successful record of picking winning stocks.

Next Inning has begun publishing its quarterly State of Tech reports with data collected from more than 60 leading technology companies as well as inputs from a worldwide network of field contacts. Each of the nine reports focuses on a specific tech sector and includes McWilliams' in depth analysis, price objectives and company-specific outlooks for 2012 and beyond.  

Next Inning has already published its State of Tech Reports on broadband and smartphone semiconductor companies, digital semiconductor companies, electronic manufacturing services (EMS) companies, analog and mixed-signal semiconductor companies, and Intel. These reports, chock-full of charts and data offer a look at the sector unmatched by other analysts.

Trial subscribers will also receive McWilliams' regular commentary and real-time trade alerts in his Next Inning model portfolio, up 15% year to date.

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:

-- What was behind the surge by NXP this week? Is NXP continuing to demonstrate leadership in the emerging near-field communications (NFC) market? Were there any major developments in NFC at the bid consumer technology tradeshow CES? What other technologies are important to the NXP story?

-- How significant is Mindspeed's planned acquisition of femtocell chip maker Picochip? What two potential concerns do Mindspeed investors need to be aware of?

-- What is McWilliams' view of Cree's recent earnings report? Is Cree taking the right steps with its lighting products initiative? Should investors consider accumulating shares of Cree on weakness?

-- TriQuint is up 30% since McWilliams called it one of his top picks for 2012 on December 19, 2011.  Is the strong trend for 3G subscribers in China an important positive data point for TriQuint? Are Wall Street analysts failing to see the rapidly emerging demand for smartphones in China just as they did the demand for PCs, which has been consistently driving upsides for Intel during the last two years?  What other over-sold stock does McWilliams think will benefit from the smartphone trend in China he expects will materialize this year?

-- Is Lightwave a better viewed as an acquisition candidate than as a long-term growth story? Is Lightwave's balance sheet strong enough to fund its ongoing development? How important is Lightwave's recent press release citing "a major breakthrough"?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 283% since its inception versus 45% for the S&P 500.
