Top Tech Analyst Previews Earnings for Facebook, Tellabs, KLA-Tencor, QLogic, and Maxim Integrated Products

PRINCETON, N.J., July 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on technology stocks, has published updated outlooks for Facebook (Nasdaq: FB), Tellabs (Nasdaq: TLAB), KLA-Tencor (Nasdaq: KLAC), QLogic (Nasdaq: QLGC) and Maxim Integrated Products (Nasdaq: MXIM).

Editor Paul McWilliams is best known for spotting big winners long before they are recognized by Wall Street.  Nearly a decade ago, he advised Next Inning readers that Apple was positioned to win big when it was trading for less than $10 per share (split adjusted).  However, in markets like we face today, many readers appreciate his calls to sell even more.

In his special July 3rd report, "A Guide for the Q2 Earnings Season," McWilliams advised readers they should sell Advanced Micro Devices and NetList.  Since the report was published, the price of Advanced Micro has dropped over 33% and the price of NetList has dropped over 32%.  What other stocks did McWilliams suggest selling and which ones does he think investors should buy?

In his "Guide for the Q2 Earnings Season," McWilliams offers in depth data and analysis on 67 tech companies expected to report aggregate revenue in excess of $800 billion this year. The report includes McWilliams' second half outlook, full value price ranges and current investment opinions for all 67 stocks.  With this data, investors can appropriately position themselves for the July earnings season.

McWilliams spent a decades-long career in the technology industry and has earned a reputation for his skill in communicating complex technology trends to individual investors and professional analysts alike. His reports have won over readers with their ability to unravel the complexities of the industry and, more importantly, identify which companies are likely to be the winners and losers as technology trends change.

McWilliams thinks his 62-page State of Tech report should be read by all tech investors and is making it, along with his special report "Triple Crown Tech Stocks," available free of charge to all who sign up for a no-obligation free trial to Next Inning Technology Research.

McWilliams' recent reports cover the following topics and more:

-- Facebook:  McWilliams wrote in February that he wouldn't touch the Facebook IPO and reiterated that call just ahead of the offering. Is it now time for investors to jump in, or should investors wait and see how CEO Mark Zuckerberg performs under pressure? Should investors interested in social media focus instead on Google or maybe even Apple?

-- Tellabs: With Tellabs' balance sheet showing signs of stabilizing, could shares move above $4 in the near term? Is Tellabs now trading for close to the value of its balance sheet?  How does McWilliams go about calculating his estimated balance sheet value?  Does he think classic "book value" is a meaningful indicator?

-- KLA-Tencor: Are broader trends in semiconductor fabrication poised to benefit KLA-Tencor? Does McWilliams believe that the stock is currently undervalued? Did KLA-Tencor's generous dividend help it land a spot in McWilliams' Triple Crown Tech Stock Portfolio?  What progress has KLA-Tencor announced regarding the 450mm wafer market that Intel is hoping to drive into production in the not too distant future?

-- QLogic: Now that QLogic has sold its InfiniBand product line to Intel, does McWilliams think the stock is a better investment than it was before the sale, or is it a stock investors should avoid? What industry event has the potential to drive an upside for QLogic?

-- Maxim: Does McWilliams have a positive view of Maxim? Did Maxim's generous dividend help it land a spot in McWilliams' Triple Crown Tech Stock Portfolio?  Should investors view Maxim as a potential strategic investment or does McWilliams think it is better thought of as being "speculative"? What factors did McWilliams consider when making this decision?
