Activision Blizzard (ATVI-Q) — Stockchase
Activision Blizzard (ATVI-Q) — Stockchase

Opinion about ATVI-Q: Hold tight or sell with pending takeover? From today's price, $5.50 is in play.

Opinion about SQ-N: 12-month price target of $83.50, nice long runway. If there's a company that can disrupt payment or banking systems, it's this name. Very strong growth prospects.
