McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent
reports:
-- McWilliams suggested last spring that Next Inning readers
plan to exit Entropic at a price target of $9. That target was realized in April.
Since then the price of Entropic has fallen nearly 40%. Does
McWilliams think it makes sense to buy Entropic again now that its
price has fallen so much or is it best to just avoid the
stock? With new initiatives by Broadcom putting Entropic
under pressure, does Entropic have viable plans to overcome the
competitive threat?
-- Investors who bought NetLogic when McWilliams called the
stock a good strategic investment in December 2008 will exit with a profit of over
400% upon completion of the Broadcom acquisition. Should NetLogic
investors consider putting those profits into Cavium or does
McWilliams think NetLogic will steamroll the much smaller
competitor now that it's under Broadcom's wing? What does
McWilliams think sets Cavium apart and why is he confident in his
above consensus forecasts?
-- Has the Applied Micro turnaround story been derailed or just
stalled temporarily? With Applied Micro in the middle of a
business model transition, are the near-term risks for the stock
above average? Does new information about Applied Micro
suggest that the company's core business is considerably more
profitable than is being presented? What is McWilliams' price
target for the stock and how much upside does it represent?
-- Does a balance sheet and valuation analysis suggest that
QLogic offers a compelling value proposition and is trading at a
bargain price?
