NI Technology Updates Outlooks for Qualcomm, Research in Motion, Lam Research, Novellus Systems, and Acme Packet

PRINCETON, N.J., Dec. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, has published updated outlooks for Qualcomm (Nasdaq: QCOM), Research in Motion (Nasdaq: RIMM), Lam Research (Nasdaq: LRCX), Novellus Systems (Nasdaq: NVLS), and Acme Packet (Nasdaq: APKT). 

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.  

After careful research, Next Inning published a special report last month outlining the rolling impact from shortages of hard-disk drives.  A number of the predictions McWilliams shared in this report were confirmed by Intel when it lowered its guidance.  In this report, McWilliams examines how companies in the hard-disk drive (HDD), solid-state disk drive (SSD), NAND Flash, PC, microprocessor and other semiconductor sectors will be affected.  For tech investors, this is a must-read report.

Trial subscribers will receive McWilliams' earnings previews and his 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 real-time trade alerts, are available for free to trial subscribers.

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:

• During its conference call, RIM executives stated their BlackBerry 10 would be delayed until midyear because they are waiting for a specific, but unnamed chipset to become available.  This is clearly disappointing for RIM investors, but what about investors in the chipset company?  Are there reasons to think the chipset is from Qualcomm and, if so, will it be late with its new Snapdragon chips or is RIM's schedule simply in line with Qualcomm's last stated commitment?  Does McWilliams think the new chips due out next year from Qualcomm will be something special?  Why?  What does McWilliams think about RIM as an investment?
• Is the recently announced merger of Lam Research and Novellus Systems a winner for investors of both companies? What is so innovative about how this deal was constructed? How will arbitrage trading by big investors impact the stock prices of these two companies prior to the deal closing?  What will come into play right after closing and likely boost the price of Lam shares?
• Acme Packet is now down roughly 50% from August when McWilliams advised Next Inning subscribers that the stock was significantly overvalued. Is the stock now trading at a bargain price?  What strategy can investors leverage with Acme Packet that could produce a 40% to 60% 13-month return and present lower risk than just owning the stock outright?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 244% since its inception versus 34% for the S&P 500.
