Leading Tech Analyst Publishes Full 2013 Outlook, Including Special Updates on Apple, Intel, Cree, Microsoft, and DragonWave

PRINCETON, N.J., Jan. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on technology stocks, has published updated outlooks on Apple AAPL, Intel INTC, Cree CREE, Microsoft MSFT, and DragonWave DRWI.

After a series of reports that nailed the market's high and low points in 2012, Editor Paul McWilliams has published his outlook for 2013. His new State of Tech report covers 72 technology stocks and outlines which stocks investors will want to own and which they should avoid. The report also dives deep into a number of exciting, emerging tech trends, well ahead of the Wall Street curve. Trial subscribers will receive the 126-page report, which includes 35 detailed tables and graphs, for free, no strings attached. This report is a must read for investors and analysts focusing on technology in 2013.

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.  To this point, no one has been more accurate than McWilliams when it comes to Apple.

In recent reports, McWilliams also offers critical insight into Apple's recent weakness and adds valuable commentary on the roles of key suppliers. Nearly a decade ago, McWilliams advised Next Inning readers that Apple was positioned to win big when it was trading for less than $10 per share (split adjusted), and since then McWilliams has become one of the most trusted voices covering Apple and the consumer ecosystem business model it has pioneered. McWilliams' new, must-read report on Apple is available for free to trial Next Inning subscribers.

Topics discussed in the latest reports include:

-- Apple: McWilliams has consistently been ahead of the curve when it comes to Apple.  Nearly ten years ago, he suggested buying the stock when it was trading for less than $10 (split adjusted).  In January 2009, when Apple dipped below $100, McWilliams pointed to how accounting policies were masking Apple's true profitability.  However, earlier this year when Apple made its first run to the mid-$600s, he advised Next Inning readers it was time to take profits and reiterated that view in the fall as Apple moved above $700.  After waiting patiently, he finally suggested jumping back in late last month when Apple was trading below $510.  In his new State of Tech report, McWilliams reveals two valuable lessons investors should have learned from watching Apple in 2012 and three reasons why the extremely high Apple price targets shared by some analysts were unlikely to be met. Most importantly, McWilliams' new report outlines his outlook for Apple in 2013, including whether the stock is poised to make another run to $700. This report is a "must read" for all Apple investors and analysts.

-- Intel: Are analysts right to be concerned that Intel is being shut out of key mobile computing markets or are they missing the clear signals that Intel has a roadmap to compete in these markets? Are there indications that slack PC demand will lead to a soft quarter for Intel? What is McWilliams expecting Intel shares to do in 2013? Should investors be buying at current levels?

-- 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 grow profit margins in spite of dismal Wall Street forecasts.  With Cree now trading in the mid-$30s, does McWilliams think the investment has played out or is there reason to continue holding?

-- Microsoft: What is McWilliams' view of Microsoft's new Windows 8 operating system? Might the Windows 8 roll-out provide a catalyst that will allow Microsoft shares to break out to the upside?  What is the one thing that Microsoft could do with its new Windows strategy that would reestablish it with both consumers and enterprise customers?

-- DragonWave: What three factors have impacted the market for DragonWave's products? Is the combination of Sprint, Softbank, and Clearwire likely to set the table for DragonWave to have a strong year in 2013?  Why has the price of DragonWave more than doubled during the last couple of months?
