McWilliams covers these topics and more in his recent reports:

-- McWilliams encouraged readers to buy Apple last summer when the stock collapsed to nearly $300 and maintained it was destined to move above $500 in 2012. While that has worked out well, many readers ask how they can leverage Apple's success beyond just owning shares of Apple directly. McWilliams answers this question and provides his opinion as to which Apple suppliers have the strongest and the weakest (riskiest) positions in Apple's sector leading designs.

-- McWilliams sees risks for suppliers that sell chips that can be easily integrated into future versions of Apple's applications processor. Is Cirrus threatened by this trend, or is its design positioning safe for at least the next few generations of Apple devices?

-- Apple has an architectural license with ARM that gives Apple a very free hand in designing its processors. How likely is it that Apple will move away from ARM-core in future smartphone and tablet designs, a move that would be a blow to ARM?

-- With voice recognition becoming core to the Apple platform, how critical is Apple to Nuance's business model? As voice recognition becomes a key feature in a range of consumer electronics, is Nuance well positioned to benefit?

-- Do suppliers like Avago and TriQuint face any risk that the functions their chips provide will be integrated into Apple's applications processor? Are Avago and TriQuint good candidates to own alongside Apple, as a way for investors to leverage Apple's success?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 302% since its inception versus 48% for the S&P 500.
