PRINCETON, N.J., Sept. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology
Research (http://www.nextinning.com/), an online investment
newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks,
announced it has updated outlooks for EZchip Semiconductor
(NASDAQ:EZCH), NetLogic Microsystems (NASDAQ:NETL), Cavium Networks
(NASDAQ:CAVM), Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM), and Silicon Laboratories
(NASDAQ:SLAB). During the July earnings season, Editor Paul
McWilliams was spot on. Not only was he the only one to predict
Intel would report revenue of $8B, he laid out the details so
accurately that one reader commented, "It was almost as though
McWilliams wrote the script for the Intel conference call." With
the October earnings season just around the corner, McWilliams has
begun publishing his special "State of Tech" reports. In this
series of reports, readers will find detailed data covering the
sector leaders as well as some of the up and coming niche players,
commentary about sector trends and specific calls as to which
stocks McWilliams thinks readers should buy and which he thinks
they should sell. To read the State of Tech reports, learn what
McWilliams thinks Intel will report in Q3 and have full access to

McWilliams covers these topics and more in his State of Tech
report: -- In his always-illuminating State of Tech report covering
Specialty Semiconductor companies, McWilliams included a special
note to readers that he emphasized as being "important." In this
note, he described in detail specific industry trends that have
masked both revenue and gross profit in certain sectors and
described how these situations would turn around during the coming
quarters. What is it that McWilliams sees that he doesn't think
Wall Street will grasp until it reads about it in the earnings
reports that will start to flow next month? What specialty
semiconductor companies stand to benefit the most? -- Ever since
the story broke about Juniper Networks stepping out with its own
ASIC to replace the EZchip design in the MX router, the price of
EZchip has been under pressure. In his quest to get to the bottom
of the story, McWilliams has dug up some new perspective on this
matter and used it to sharpen his view of EZchip's future. Does he
still see EZchip as a big winner? How does he think the loss of
Juniper will play into the model? Is EZchip's next earnings report
for Q3 likely to surpass analysts' expectations? -- NetLogic has
moved up over 125% since McWilliams suggested readers consider
buying the stock nine months ago. Should investors be happy about
NetLogic's acquisitions this year? Even after its run higher, is
NetLogic still trading at an attractive valuation? -- Cavium has
moved up nearly 125% since McWilliams suggested readers consider
buying the stock in December. Has Cavium run too far too fast? What
are the competitive threats facing Cavium? -- Why have Qualcomm
shares lagged their tech peers in 2009? What is McWilliams' fair
value range for the stock and what should investors be looking for
in Qualcomm's upcoming earnings report? -- Silicon Labs has moved
up over 103% since McWilliams called it a "good strategic
investment" in December. Is Silicon Labs still attractively priced
after this strong run higher? What sets Silicon Labs' management
apart from that of its competitors? Founded in September 2002, Next
