Topics discussed in the latest reports include:

-- Cisco: McWilliams was quick to advise Next Inning readers that Wall Street was wrong when it pushed Cisco's price under $15 in July 2012 and wrote that it should be viewed as a buying opportunity.  With the price of Cisco now up over 63% from its 2012 low, does McWilliams believe the stock is still trading at an attractive price? Is Cisco poised for above-trend growth in 2013?  What specifically does McWilliams see changing for Cisco in 2013 and how does he think those changes will impact the price of Cisco's stock?

-- Anadigics: What specific hurdles does Anadigics need to clear if it is to achieve breakeven by Q4 2013?  McWilliams' extensive analysis of Anadigics models how this small-cap turn-around story could position itself to produce big returns for investors.

-- Alcatel-Lucent: With Alcatel-Lucent shares up sharply since McWilliams suggested buying earlier this year at $1.33, should investors consider taking profits? What are the chances that Alcatel-Lucent will push higher to $2.00 or even $2.50 a share? What wildcards do Alcatel-Lucent investors need to be aware of?

-- Skyworks: How does Skyworks compare to rivals Avago, TriQuint, and RF Micro in terms of its positioning in the broader market and as a supplier to Apple? Is Skyworks poised to outperform the broader technology sector in 2013?  What one thing has changed this year in the RF semiconductor market and why is it important for investors to understand this change?  What strategy does McWilliams think is the best way for tech investors to cover the RF semiconductor sector?

-- Qualcomm: After years of cycle-trading Qualcomm, McWilliams advised Next Inning readers in 2010 when Qualcomm dipped into the $30s that it was time to buy shares with the intent to hold them for the long run.  Thanks to subsequent option hedges proposed by McWilliams, subscribers who followed his recommendations now have a cash exposure basis in the mid-$20s on their Qualcomm shares and have pocketed nice call premiums and dividends. Does McWilliams expect Qualcomm to continue to dominate the high-end smartphone market in 2013? Does Intel pose a viable threat?  Can Qualcomm develop a meaningful position in the entry level smartphone market against competitors like MedidTek? What data does McWilliams cite that leads him to believe Qualcomm will not only report strong results for its June-ending quarter, but guide with optimism for the September quarter too? What new competitive dynamics does McWilliams see developing for Qualcomm later this year?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 276% since its inception versus 81% for the S&P 500.
