"The BCPA carved out, as it must, an acknowledgment that Apple has a responsibility to respond to enforcement agencies' requests for information. But in restraining Apple from initiating action or bringing concerns to law enforcement, Qualcomm conditioned billions of dollars on Apple's silence before courts and regulators about Qualcomm's business practices. And Qualcomm is now interpreting that agreement to retaliate against Apple for responding to requests for information about Qualcomm's practices from competitionagencies, inhibiting law-enforcement review of Qualcomm's anticompetitive practices."
Qualcomm banks almost $5 billion from Apple and that’s just the start

Seems like the exact same thing from both companies: free streaming, but only using their respective smart speakers (so not on phones or computers), and with ads. Will be interesting to see just how many ads that is.
It now seems apparent to me that expected revenues in regards to intellectual property from high profile, publicly traded companies such as Amazon (AMZN) and Hewlett-Packard Company (HPQ) may not be the primary reason for renewed bullish sentiment. Financial institutions are also beginning to take notice in anticipation of March's expected revenue report. While the company is currently in a silent period before reporting, seats at the table are filling as available shares become more valuable. With many ready to speculate on next earnings report sometimes it seems as if we are watching a hand of Texas Hold'em poker, in that gamblers are willing to bet before seeing all the cards. The table is filling up as the stakes rise just like investors looking for favorable risk to reward opportunities. I appreciate that many readers cringe at the notion of how one may approach the market as they would a hand of poker, in the case of NEON, a quick scan of social media and P.R. announcements will produce more speculation than the objective outside data with which investors are more inclined to be comfortable. After conducting my own due diligence, I present to you my idea for NEON and one of the last favorable risk to reward opportunities to go long for under $3.15.
Last year, the breakdown was similar: 14 US corporations, six Asian and five European firms. Likewise, cash held by the top 25 companies is down from last year, but not by much. In the 2014 ranking, the top 25 companies held some $774.2 billion in cash and short-term investments. This year that figure has dropped to $721.3 billion. Survey after survey has shown that overall cash held by global corporates is generally rising, which suggests that cash hoards are increasing further down the value chain.
Three, they ignore the importance of incentives for innovation. Platforms invest in new and better products when they can make money from doing so, and limiting their ability to do that means weakened incentives to innovate. Startups and their founders and investors are driven, in part, by the prospect of being acquired, often by the platforms themselves. Making those acquisitions more difficult, or even impossible, means removing one of the key ways startup founders can exit their firms, and hence one of the key rewards and incentives for starting an innovative new business.
In the UK, Open Banking (an interoperability requirement imposed on British retail banks) has suffered from significant service outages, and targets a level of uptime that many developers complain is too low for them to build products around. Nor has Open Banking yet led to any obvious competition benefits. 2ff7e9595c
