Q: Hi,
I would be interested in your comments on this company. It seems to be growing well, with a recent announcement of a big increase in earnings. However I am somewhat concerned about the fact that Huawei is on their stated list of customers. Will the recent threat from Trump to limit sales to Huawei have a large negative effect on Inphi? As a small cap, do they have a lot of debt? I found a Debt/Equity figure of 1.37 on Finviz.com, but am not sure how to interpret that, given that they currently show a negative income. Many thanks for all you do to keep us on the right track!

Q: Harry asked an interesting question about investing in US Tech stocks and wanted an ETF. I did a 52-week comparison of the performance of the 4 mentioned Tech stocks with the ZQQ ETF. If my rough calculations are correct, one would have almost doubled their money with these 4 stocks compared to the putting the same money in ZQQ over the last 52 weeks. Past performance is no indication of the future, but I would like your thoughts on buying these 4 now versus the ETF. In my situation I would put 5% of my investments in these four and currently well diversified and a good chuck of fixed income (>30%). For me maybe okay (your thoughts please) but in general would this also apply to most investors. Please respond to my situation and the general situation if you can please. Thanks so much. Dan C.

Q: I am still confused by this merger and your answers to other questions. The company says Canadian shareholders should use FLTR and those shares are trading at 11,400 GB (pounds) which makes me suddenly a multi-millionaire. You said we should be using PDYPF or PDYPY depending on your answer. Is the PDYP? a half share, so the 225 shares of FLTR that I have is actually 450 units of PDYP?? Then the other question is what currency is this? It appears to be USD. If so, any way I cut it I've made a huge amount from The Stars Group, or maybe I've lost money. Thanks for your help in trying to put a value on these shares.

Q: They have raised $30 m (without any warrants) during the past year to primarily fund exploration and drilling, my take on their press releases
Ross Beaty owns around 20%
Please explain BHP's formal earn-in and joint venture agreement dated July 15, 2019

BHP has the right to earn a 51% ownership initially, to a max of 70%
........is BHP committed to invest, or is it up to them to decide if they want to ?
if its the latter, is there a time constraint for them to invest
I'm thinking to take a small position here
what do u think
