NI Technology Research Updates Outlooks for Apple, Avago Technologies, Microsoft, Nokia and MaxLinear

-- Apple: What does McWilliams' detailed analysis of recent results from key Apple supplier Avago suggest about Apple's production schedule for its new iPhone? Last year, Apple ran short of supply following the introduction of its iPhone 5.  Does the data suggest Apple plans a more aggressive manufacturing schedule ahead of this year's introduction, or might the company be playing it more conservative?  This must-read report for analysts and investors is available now for free to trial subscribers.

-- Avago: Was Avago's earnings report in line with McWilliams' detailed projections? One of the things that makes this report interesting is the fact that Avago reports a July-ending quarter and provides guidance for demand through October.  Does the data from Avago suggest that certain other tech companies have been enjoying strong demand during the third quarter?  What specific companies does the data suggest investors should watch carefully during the coming months?  Are there any clear buy or sell indicators in the data?

-- Microsoft and Nokia: Should investors put any credence in speculation that Nokia CEO Stephen Elop might replace Steve Ballmer as CEO of Microsoft? Why might an acquisition of Nokia be a smarter move for Microsoft? How could Microsoft leverage Nokia's assets to improve Microsoft's positioning in its core enterprise markets?  Is there already a precedent for what would seemingly be a blockbuster deal?

-- MaxLinear: With MaxLinear shares up 60% year to date, should investors hold on for further upside or is it time to take profits? What two concerns do MaxLinear investors need to consider? Is there reason to believe that under the right conditions the price of Max Linear could move into low double digits later this year?
