Topics discussed in McWilliams' recent reports include:

-- Cree: In 2012 when Cree was trudging through the low to mid-$20s, McWilliams encouraged Next Inning readers to build a position in the stock with his forecast that Cree would in fact be a big winner in the LED lighting market in spite of dismal Wall Street forecasts.  With Cree now trading above $70 again, does McWilliams think the stock has again run too far, too fast, or that there is reason to believe it will continue higher this time?  What sets Cree apart from other companies in the LED lighting field?  Does McWilliams think the current fiscal 2015 earnings consensus for Cree is too low?  What is McWilliams' six-month target price range for Cree?

-- Broadcom: Is Broadcom's acquisition of the LTE baseband product line from affiliates of Renesas a major move for Broadcom? Has Broadcom's acquisition of NetLogic played out more poorly than expected? Where does McWilliams think Broadcom will continue to lose market opportunities with its NetLogic product line and where does he think Broadcom will do better than Wall Street appears to be forecasting today?  When weighing these two factors, does McWilliams think Broadcom has been oversold?

-- Juniper Networks: McWilliams suggested selling Juniper when its share price was nearly $40 in 2011 and remaining on the side until it dropped to $16.31 over a year later where he wrote it was time to buy again.  Are aggregate demand trends developing favorably for Juniper? What should Juniper investors do ahead of the company's earnings report this quarter? Is Juniper now facing increasing competition in key markets, or does McWilliams think it is poised to take market share this year?

-- RF Micro: RF Micro Devices has been more of a trading stock for McWilliams through the years, and during 2012 he called two profitable swing trades before jumping back in the last time the stock was trading in the $3s. Since then, he has suggested holding tight and buying on weakness.  Does he think it's a buy again now?  Are the fears about slowing smartphone production something that should concern investors, or is that just a part of a bigger story that is offset by other drivers?

-- STMicro: News that STMicro lost the accelerometer design it has held in all Apple iPhones since day one has weighed on STMicro.  However, recent news suggests the iPhone 5S is exhibiting problems that some think are traceable to how it reads the accelerometer data from its new supplier.  Was this really an important loss for STMicro?  Why does McWilliams think Apple changed sources after all these years?  Does McWilliams see other factors shifting over time to work in the company's favor? In what critical growth market has STMicro recently overtaken Texas Instruments to be ranked number one by market share? Does STMicro offer investors long-term profit potential?
