Q: Hi team,

With 22 tech stocks weighting some 34% of my portfolio, I assume you would recommend that I rationalize my approach for a better diversification, both in my tech sector and in my portfolio as a whole.

To accomplish that, while keeping a strong growth approach, could you indicate which are, in your view, 1) the « must own » stocks, in order of importance 2) those which could be dropped because of « double emploi » or high risk, 3) those missing to properly cover the tech sector ?

Please feel free to use as many credits as you see fit.

Gratefully yours,

Jacques IDS

Q: Once upon a time I owned this equity; there was some news today "that it has issued 623,406 common shares to fund interest due on June 30, 2020 on its 6.5% Convertible Unsecured Debentures (the "Debentures"). 355,840 common shares were issued to debenture holders that held 58.8% of the debentures, these holders having elected to receive common shares in lieu of cash interest.....Additionally, 14 insiders, including C-suite, Management and Directors, purchased 267,566 common shares through a private placement.....The Company is applying the proceeds from the private placement to pay the interest on the June 30, 2020 payment and, to the extent of any excess proceeds, the December 31, 2020 interest payment." What do you think is going on here? The stock has been on quite a slide; is this positive, or more bad news? Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Can you offer thoughts on Baylin tech. I was thinking this would be a play on 5G down the road. Stock has been really hammered. Looks like the debt could become a problem but they are still working because they are considered essential need. Building a new plant to deal with future demand in what could possibly be a high growth industry?

Q: The message from BYL seems to be that industry conditions are not optimal and the prices of others like KEYS and SWKS are progressing only modestly. Yet BYL and KEYS in particular appear to be gearing up for a very robust future; SWKS is maybe a bit more robust. What's the problem, do you expect it to be an extended drag on the sector, and do you think BYL has a fair chance of being able to compete with its offerings? Thanks
