NI Technology Updates Outlooks for Advanced Micro Devices, Altera, Xilinx, Atmel, and Cypress Semiconductor

PRINCETON, N.J., July 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, has updated outlooks for Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD), Altera (Nasdaq: ALTR), Xilinx (Nasdaq: XLNX), Atmel (Nasdaq: ATML), and Cypress Semiconductor (Nasdaq: CY).  

Next Inning editor Paul McWilliams has leveraged a decades-long career as a semiconductor industry insider to deliver in-depth insights and winning stock selections for his newsletter subscribers.  McWilliams' Next Inning model portfolio has posted huge gains, returning 324% since its inception in 2002, and he has been picking more potential big winners for 2011.  

McWilliams has been right on target this year with his predictions on the direction of the market.  In mid-May McWilliams advised his readers that we would be in for about five or six weeks of souring market conditions, but following that, McWilliams predicted that tech stock prices would rally as Wall Street looked towards what McWilliams stated weeks earlier would be a stronger second half.  One look at the charts is all it takes to see his timing was again impeccable.

With tech stocks now in the rebound mode, McWilliams is continuing to help his readers identify which ones are poised to be the big winners in the July earnings season and which ones he would avoid.  To help Next Inning readers make better informed decisions, Next Inning has begun publishing its highly acclaimed State of Tech series, offering in-depth, sector-by-sector coverage of over 65 leading tech companies.

In addition to the State of Tech series, trial subscribers will also receive real-time trade alerts, daily updates, and McWilliams' in depth earnings previews.

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:

-- We all know PC sales were weak in Q2.  The question is, how will it shape up in the second half and, for AMD investors, is there reason to believe the distant number two player will pick up market share?  Why does McWilliams think the place investors need to focus their attention is China?  What sets AMD apart from Intel in the rapidly evolving Chinese market?  What near-term catalyst does McWilliams think could quickly boost the price of AMD by 10% to 15%?  What is McWilliams' year-end target for AMD?

-- When Wall Street analysts were busy trashing programmable logic leaders Altera and Xilinx early last year, McWilliams advised Next Inning readers in no uncertain terms the analysts were not only wrong in their conclusions, but that the logic behind the conclusions was wrong as well.  He also advised readers that Altera was poised then to be the bigger winner in 2010. As we know now, both stocks were solid performers in 2010 and Altera far outdistanced its rival, Xilinx.  Does McWilliams continue to believe investors should consider one or both of these stocks as core strategic investments?  Which of the two does McWilliams favor for 2011?  What emerging competitive threat do Altera and Xilinx investors need to monitor?

-- Is Cypress really the leader in touch screen controller technology or has the company lost the grip it had from being an early mover in the sector? What is the "red flag" that investors in Cypress need to be aware of?  What is McWilliams' fair value range for the stock and how much upside does it represent?

-- Despite being a late entrant to the touch screen controller market, Atmel posted strong results in 2010 and promises to double revenue this year.  McWilliams predicted in January 2010 that Atmel would be trading above $10 by year end.  After Atmel soared all the way to $16.80 before pulling back, does McWilliams see further upside in store for the stock?  Is there more to the Atmel story than just its strong position in the touch screen market?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 324% since its inception versus 48% for the S&P 500.
