PRINCETON, N.J., July 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com), an online investment newsletter focused on technology stocks, has published a new special report designed to help investors prepare for earnings season.  This report covers 67 tech stocks including Flextronics (Nasdaq: FLEX), Finisar (Nasdaq: FNSR), ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ONNN), Xilinx (Nasdaq: XLNX) and Jabil Circuit (NYSE: JBL).

Editor Paul McWilliams is best known for spotting big winners long before they are recognized by Wall Street.  Nearly a decade ago, he advised Next Inning readers that Apple was positioned to win big when it was trading for less than $10 per share (split adjusted).  However, in markets like we face today, many readers appreciate his calls to sell even more.

In his special report "A Guide for the Q2 Earnings Season" that was published July 3rd, McWilliams stated clearly that readers should sell Advanced Micro Devices and OCZ Technology.  On July 9th, AMD announced it would report Q2 revenue 14% below its original forecast.  The price of AMD dropped over 15% following the report.  The story from OCZ was even worse. After disappointing Wall Street for the second quarter in a row, its stock price dropped over 30% following McWilliams' warning.

In his "Guide for the Q2 Earnings Season", McWilliams offers in depth data and analysis on 67 tech companies expected to report aggregate revenue in excess of $800 billion this year. The report includes McWilliams' second half outlook, full value price ranges and current investment opinions for all 67 stocks.  With this data, investors can appropriately position themselves for the July earnings season.

McWilliams spent a decades-long career in the technology industry, and has earned a reputation for his skill in communicating complex technology trends to individual investors and professional analysts alike. His reports have won over readers with their ability to unravel the complexities of the industry and, more importantly, identify which companies are likely to be the winners and losers as technology trends change.

McWilliams thinks his 62-page State of Tech report should be read by all tech investors and is making it, along with his special report "Triple Crown Tech Stocks," available free of charge to all who sign up for a no-obligation free trial to Next Inning Technology Research.

McWilliams' latest report covers the following topics:

-- Flextronics:  What has caused McWilliams to adjust his rating on Flextronics? Has McWilliams taken a more bullish or bearish view of Flextronics? What is McWilliams' estimated fair value range for Flextronics and how much upside does it represent from current prices? 

-- Finisar: Why is Wall Street wrong to favor Ciena over Finisar in the fiber optic sector? What else is Wall Street getting wrong about Finisar and how can investors profit from Wall Street's mistakes?

-- ON Semi:  Is Wall Street focusing too much on near-term concerns impacting ON Semi and missing a brighter long-term story? Could sentiment toward ON Semi improve significantly in the next six months?

-- Xilinx:  Does McWilliams continue to view Xilinx as a more attractive investment than its rival Altera? What key trends in the programmable logic sector are important to the Xilinx story?

-- Jabil:  What has been behind Wall Street's negative view of Jabil?  Is Wall Street right in this view or is it still looking in the rearview mirror? Does McWilliams believe Jabil is the best stock for investors wanting exposure to the EMS sector?  Which stock might McWilliams consider pairing with an investment in Jabil?
