Q: Please comment on the review from a new book from Michio Kaku and how the coming of quantum computing would affect companies in the SOX index such as NVDA. Are there any public or private companies at the forefront of this advance?

"The runaway success of the microchip processor may be reaching its end. Running up against the physical constraints of smaller and smaller sizes, traditional silicon chips are not likely to prove useful in solving humanity's greatest challenges, from climate change, to global starvation, to incurable diseases. But the quantum computer, which harnesses the power and complexity of the atomic realm, already promises to be every bit as revolutionary as the transistor and microchip once were. "

Apparently the auto industry and medical research areas are already using it.

Q: Your thoughts on Bird’s offer, please.

Q: Why the announcement combination of SOX and BDT resulted on SOX going down by more than half. I hold SOX in a registered account at a huge loss. Do you think it is time just to bail out or wait for the transaction to take place? What is the incentive to the board of directors to agree on a transaction that results in such a drastic devaluation of stock price?

Thanks
