While there’s no specific catalyst to speak of today, BRQS was the subject of social media chatter and speculation at the start of the month. Just before Christmas last year, the company announced that it would be reducing its debt by $18 million and eliminating institutional loans. Also in December 2020, the company signed an agreement to build a 5G industrial park in China.
