New Whitepaper on Cloud Investing
The industry seems to be swimming in new research about cloud computing these days. Every time I turn around I find something new to read about the explosion of provider services, bandwidth or database capacity and cloud services, for example, site and server monitoring on the cloud.
Found another with a slight twist this time: a research report on how cloud computing will affect tech stocks.
Next Inning Technology Research, an online investment newsletter focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, said it published a special report on the emerging cloud computing trend covering companies including Amazon, Microsoft, Yahoo, Oracle and Motorola.
Apparently, the report covers questions such as:
– How does cloud computing, now the domain of companies like Google, have its roots in technology trends going back 40 years?
– Why do smartphones, netbooks, and other mobile, internet-connected devices represent a potential paradigm shift in the cloud computing trend?
– Where do companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Yahoo, Oracle, and Motorola fit into the cloud computing trend and how are they likely to benefit from it?
Unfortunately, to get a look at the report, you’ll have to visit Next Inning’s site, and enter into a trial service. But from what I read about the investment researcher and advisor, it might be worth it. “Next Inning Editor Paul McWilliams draws on his more than twenty years of experience in the technology industry to alert subscribers to companies and technologies that are poised for explosive growth,” the site says.
It also adds that McWilliams and the Next Inning staff “spend hundreds of hours each month speaking with industry contacts, analyzing data and company conference calls, and combing through financial statements looking for investment ideas.”
If you try out the service, I’d appreciate a head’s up to let me know where to invest.
