Yuan fluctuating daily thus taken numbers from Yahoo Finance.

Expecting a beat in Sales & EPS plus better guidance from IQ.

About market, TAPE showed indecision in the wake of many reports from US where there is concern for containment of Corona Virus. President Trump tried to assure that everything is or will be under control. Market needs to digest some more to start looking @ future, thus more volatility @ open. This is when best buying opportunity are there.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.
