McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent
reports:
- A year ago, McWilliams suggested that investors interested in
virtualization should favor Citrix over VMWare. As it turned
out, Citrix modestly outperformed VMWare. Going forward,
which stock does McWilliams think investors should hold for
2012? What does he think about splitting the bet and holding
both or pairing VMWare's big brother, EMC, with a position in
Citrix?
- A year ago, McWilliams suggested that NetApp shareholders sell
and move proceeds to EMC. During the year that followed,
NetApp lost more than a third of its value while EMC held
essentially flat. Does McWilliams believe EMC is still the
stock to hold going forward? What is his price target for
EMC? What is the appropriate way to calculate EMC's value
given its 80% ownership of VMWare? What trends does
McWilliams think will continue to favor EMC and VMWare?
- What three distinct challenges did Alcatel-Lucent face in 2011?
Will these challenges continue into 2012? Did Alcatel-Lucent make
the right move in deciding to sell its customer contact software
business Genesys? What is McWilliams' earnings forecast for
Alcatel-Lucent in 2012? Could Alcatel-Lucent shares double or even
triple from current levels this year?
