TheStreet Pro’s Stephen “Sarge” Guilfoyle says in his Market Recon column today that investors should also be on the lookout for “the reality (or not) of the company’s April projection of a $5.5 billion inventory-based charge after President Trump tightened export controls for high-technology-type products headed for mainland China that could be used for military purposes.”
