Next Inning Editor, Paul McWilliams, recently provided extensive coverage of Altera and Xilinx's mid-quarter updates. In his coverage McWilliams looked at the following topics, among others:
-- What is the real story behind the rising inventory levels
at Altera and Xilinx?
-- Why are programmable chip solutions gaining economic
advantages over their fixed chip counterparts?
-- What is his outlook for Xilinx and Altera in 2005?
McWilliams also recently provided members an updated outlook for the LCD Driver market, "According to the new forecast from DisplaySearch, these lower costs will increase demand for LCD drivers by nearly 50% in 2005." This outlook has implications for many companies, specifically McWilliams commented on:
-- Why he believes this information is not currently reflected
in Intersil's stock price and why ISIL is one of his favorite
long-term semiconductor plays.
-- How Genesis Microchip may be able to continue to capitalize
on the growing market and add to its recent gains.
-- Why the driver market is too competitive for a direct
investment play.
