Topics discussed in McWilliams' recent reports include:

-- Apple: Next Inning is known for helping its readers generate strong returns, and no one has been more accurate than McWilliams when it comes to Apple. Nearly a decade ago, McWilliams advised readers that Apple was positioned to win big when it was trading for less than $10 per share (split adjusted). However, as Apple was hitting record highs in 2012, McWilliams advised Next Inning readers to sell. Is now the time to invest in Apple, or should investors avoid the stock ahead of its upcoming earnings report? Why should investors view Apple not as a product company but as an "ecosystem" company? What specifically does McWilliams say Apple should do to reclaim its former glory?

-- 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. After the stock got punished harshly following its Q3 earnings, is Cree trading at an attractive level ahead of its Q4 earnings report? What are the four elements of the bullish thesis for Cree?  What does McWilliams see in store for Cree going forward?

-- Cisco: What four factors have kept Cisco's share price under pressure? Does McWilliams believe the stock is trading at an attractive price? Is Cisco poised to undergo a corporate restructuring?

-- Anadigics: What does the data suggest Anadigics investors can expect from the company's upcoming earnings report?  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? Has the stock now moved into overbought territory?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 317% since its inception versus 102% for the S&P 500.
