Topics discussed in McWilliams' recent reports include:

-- Intel: McWilliams warned Next Inning readers last June that Intel would disappoint when it reported results for Q2 in mid-July.  As we know now, that is exactly what happened and led the price of Intel to fall from nearly $26 to a recent low of $21.89.  What is McWilliams expecting from Intel in Q3? Does McWilliams see an upside surprise above conservative analyst outlooks?

-- SanDisk: In July 2012, when SanDisk was trading at $36.48, McWilliams told investors that SanDisk was deeply undervalued. With shares now 70% higher, does McWilliams expect further gains for SanDisk investors? Could SanDisk shares move above $70 in the near term? Do current dynamics in the memory market favor SanDisk? What is different about the demand elasticity for NAND Flash memory when compared to DRAM and why is this difference an important fact for memory investors to consider today?

-- Linear Technology: Just one day before Linear Tech hit its 52-week low in mid-2012. McWilliams recommended buying the stock at its then current price of $28.75. Has he changed his opinion or are there reasons to make Linear Tech a long-term holding?  What has changed at Linear Tech that McWilliams saw months before it was discovered by Wall Street analysts that led McWilliams to classify this stock a "strategic investment?"

-- Xilinx: As we prepared to enter 2012, McWilliams forecasted Xilinx would outperform Altera for the next two years.  Because Altera had been the big winner during 2010 and 2011, this was a bold prediction that went against the grain of Wall Street forecasts.  However, McWilliams was right – Xilinx was the winner hands down in all categories. For the full year of 2012, the price of Xilinx went up 14.3% while the price of Altera went down 6.3%, and this year Xilinx is beating Altera by almost a 5 to 1 ratio. Does McWilliams continue to view Xilinx as a more attractive investment than its rival Altera as we head into Xilinx's earnings report this week?
