Q: Could I please get 5iResearch’s thoughts on QCOM’s offer to shareholders to purchase their shares at a price ranging between $67.50 & $60. The downside of the offer is that the US government will treat the payment as a dividend payment, subject to a 30% withholding tax. To get the withholding tax back there will be forms to file with the US government once the sale is completed. Presently my shares are in a non-registered account, have a 4% gain & pay a 3.5% annual dividend. Would you recommend just selling the shares now on the open market or holding the shares for future growth. They account for 23% of my US info tech sector & 3% of my total US portfolio. Thanks … Cal

Q: I am holding 100 shares of Qcom and have been in the red for years... fortunately it pays a decent dividend... Do you feel that this stock will improve Following the upcoming Dutch Auction ? You have suggested this stock several times to your readers... You recommended holding out for a better price when there was an interested buyer...After several disappointments, do you feel the buyback is a good thing at this point ? ...or it just creating an event to raise its stock price ?

Q: I have a question about 461
I trimmed about 15% of my shares of NVDA today ahead of earnings mainly because I was up over 300% (thanks to 5i) and felt that expectations were so high that even with an earnings beat , shares may see some weakness. Can I please get your comments on their results and your opinion going forward? To me it looks like a solid beat but is it guidance that is resulting in a bit of a sell off after hours?
Thank you

Q: Not all that long ago this stock was in the mid 60's and just falls everyday, sometimes as much as 5% in one day. Do you still like this stock? Have you any idea what the problem is with it? On the Canadian side, seems like pretty well all of the Canadian stocks are falling. BBD.B went from $550 to $450 then back up to $525 and then back down to $445. Is this going to do what it did in the past, causing people who got involved with it to lose a bundle? Thanks, Dennis

Q: Hi, please give me your thoughts on this microcap. The main product, MobiKEY, seems useful for data security and privacy. Do you see data security/privacy as an area for growth in light of the recent FB data issues? Any other names to watch or look at in a similar business? Thanks.
