Art, You got it right!! "call sellers are happy they sold..call buyers are pissed they sold...ever try to make everyone happy???"
Sure does look like a good buy @ $30, I believe you can make 10% on your money in a week or so, now if my wife would LET GO of the piggy bank, I would buy more. Of course we recently had that discussion about wives & our investment in IDCC, whoops got to go here she comes. Mumm the word! LOL
Good Luck, Hrbart
See would be a Great buying op for all, institutional, individual, etc. Sure seems much to do over nothing. Diversify is the name of the game in this mkt. Too many eggs in one basket & all that jazz. I believe we will be in the Green before the close. ( Maybe wishfull thinking!) Good Luck to All.
Lastchoice, you posted, "boy, if option sellers had a red market, they could really try and make a statement. interesting read this should give for friday's pin-to-30 potential"
I hope they are just as succesful at the Jan 08 leaps & pin-to $60. LOL That seems to be a nice number in my book!!
It's all PERCEPTION, not reality. We shall overcome! Give us our 3G contracts & Perception will change! ( Maybe the drop is just AMS selling out )
"If they exercise and hold then they have to come up with the cash to meet the exercise price as well as pay tax on the difference between that and the fair market value of the stock on the exercise date"
Oh yes the tax issue, God forbid, Idcc drops $10 or so by the end of the year ( Which I don't believe for a second that will happen) you now have a huge tax bill & a lot less $$ to pay for it, it has happened to me. Bad Feeling!!! Better to have some cash on the table & be able to feed the kid's than a handfull of " I should of's" JMHO Hrbart
"I don't think they would have sold if NEWS was imminent."
Question, If they sold with knowledge of " Imminent News coming" would that not be illegal?? I don't believe they want to bunk with Ken Lay - so I can only believe that there is no immediate news coming. But I sure have been wrong on matters
of this nature in the past. I will wait out options ex to see who wins this battle! Still waiting for the " Houston 100 "
I'm hanging Long & Strong ( Just a little nervous ) LOl
Good Luck to all longs, Hrbart
Jim, I Think they will try but fail, this stock just has to much demand. Now that we are averaging more than million a day traded gets real expensive to manipulate. ( perhaps thats just my hope & dreams to see them get burned! LOL )
Good Luck to All Longs, Hrbart
"the Market Masters will take us down to 30 for options expiration Friday."
"This is almost scary." Scary? It's ALL GOOD, we finally getting our due!! On ward & upward to $50+ Good Luck to all!!
"Phones you got free after rebates don't mean manufacturer sell them for free"
That is true, but just to be on the safe side, just send a Check for $4.50 so you don't end up on our most wanted list.LOL
Good day, better than I thought, was worried about being in the " Green" at this time!
"it could trend up to the analysts'target prices!"
Now isn't that a pleasent thought!!!
This would be as good as any day to announce Sammy is coming to our party & bring 3g as a date.
FACT is currently bidding 100 shares at .01."
That is up a penny from a 1/2 hour ago
Well you have to admit 200 million will last a long time at that rate!! LOL
Dang, Almost to $26, that is where I will have to buy more, because it is a " Scremin Buy" but please don't tell my Wife, she will either have me commited or bury me alive - I keep telling her to keep the faith & she say's 10 years is enough!!
But what does SHE KNOW, she married ME didn't she!! LOL
Good Luck to all
Where is the Buyback? We sure could use a little help propping up Share price. Are we buying back or are we restricted because of a " Material event" in the works soon to be announced ( today I hope! ) Good Luck!
"I think the price will go at least $2 when we settle with samsung" I agree & $3 when we get 3g from nok & $4 when 3g from sammy and, just wait a second I need to get that calculator with all those 0000000000's - good luck to all!
Jim, I agree but also we are in a MUCH BETTER position than we were at that time. We were hoping to do things & now there done!!
I also remember when we ( IMM IMMC ) went into production of the Ultra Phone, now that was a mistake. LOL
I sure believe we are on the right track & sure don't mind being called a " Baby Qcom" go ahead I hope they keep saying that, maybe we will get some attention!!
Hope all is well with you in retirement and the extra $$$ generated today will sure help in my retirement.
Good Luck to ALL, Hrbart
Jim, Those were different times,Baby Q comment " Irrational Excuburance" we may have to wait a little longer than 5 day's to hit
$60-$80 LOL - I remember those day's, now that was FUN !!!! I'm on for another ride!
Congrat's to all Longs!!!!
Day traders
Almost a mil shares traded this Beautiful Morning. Now that's SWEET!!
"BTW, I would much prefer a dividend, perhaps $1 per share per year ($0.25 per share per quarter) instead of the buybacks."
I agree, nothing like a divvy to atract buyers - $1 per share = almost 4% - not bad for a tech stock, what if they said something like, We are starting a divvy program @ $1 per share ( .25 qtr) & will review annually, we hope to increase this divvy as income allows.
Would attract more investors ( especially current irs rules on divvy's) than a buyback.
But let us just enjoy Moment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jim, "Everyone I spoke with yesterday was buying shares"
I had the same experience talking with friends & assoc & yet IDCC was down on the day, go figure! Should be an interesting & enjoyable ( And long overdue) CC.
Congrat's to a GENIUS & a whole boardfull of GENIUS'S!
Would like to see $30 price before CC, just for added interest!!
OK pinch me, I know I'm dreaming, but sure does feel REAL !!
Good Luck to ALL !! Hrbart
Can not understand why anyone would sell today??? I guess some quick buck guys talking $$ off the table. I also thought $30 today, perhaps later!! Congrats to all IDCC longs!!!!
Jim, I get the song "Houston"...
...very loud when I'm on one your posts. (??)
Me too, not a bad song, but only one line!
C'mon Buy now, you will pay over $30 tommorow!!!!
Looking forward to the cc that should be fun!!!!
Praise the Lord, it looks like we got there!
Monday Morning Pounding, same old nonsense!! Jim, excause my ignorance but what the heck is "Fact" ??
Sure is quiet for option's day, low vol - waz up??
We have some pre market activity. Nice to be up at the git go!
I hope the Easter Bunny brings me a New Licensee for IDCC rather than some stinkin, painted hard boiled egg!! ( Always concerned about the age of those eggs! ) LOL
Happy Easter to all!! Hrbart
Perhaps we would be better off if Frank Marsala would take us off his "Strong Buy" list. I agree with Jim, don't believe buy back has started, at least I hope NOT!!
Some of this sell-off could very well be raising cash for IRS, I know I have to do something to raise cash, sure hate to sell at this price, perhaps go to margin for $$$ also hate that idea! Woe is me!
Good Luck to all!
Mr. you are right, very quiet from KOP. Perhaps this is the "quiet before the storm" of press releases!!
Good Luck to All!
"EBay case goes before Supreme Court
By Bambi Francisco, MarketWatch"
How can you trust a girl named "Bambi" LOL
Wonder what her night job is ??? LOl
Just kiddin around while I wait for impending NEWS !!
Good Luck to all!
"Would idcc purposely delay any licensing agreements until the buyback was completed and is that to be normally expected? .."
Nic, I think the sec would string them up at the closest "hanging tree" if thjey were that foolish!! LOL
OT surman, We sure do have a variety of "Great Food" in this Windy city, very aware of Gale Street Ribs & have been in both locations ( Chgo & Diamond lake)
When IDCC reaches $50 I wouldn't care if we meet @ Super Dog (Also on milwaukee ave ) LOL
Come on IDCC do your thing, I'm getting HUNGRY !! LOL
ot: heck....if you make it Gino's East... I might even make the trip...
deep dish with the Gino's sausage patty...arrr arrrhhh arrrrrrhh!
Good Choice, But we have to stop talking about food, I think I gained 5lbs just reading & writing e-mail's!!! LOL
Hey Jim, Liked your idea of a "midwest" cabal, perhaps we could meet at Uno's or Lou Malnatti's pizza joints or perhaps Carcon's for Rib's ??? Dang just made myself hungry - well I will be back after I go out for a Gyro, Have a good night!
Good luck to all longs!! Hrbart in the windy
"OT: Here is a little more on Mr. Steven Cohen"
You just have to feel bad for old stevie with all these neighbor problems and now another lawsuit, 4 billion, just chump change hope it all works out for him the poor baby.LOL
Jim, Slow day @ mkt, good time to release news & perk things up a little, sure would make me feel better. LOL
Good Luck to ALL longs!
