Glen ...sounds like lawyerly gobbleedook squared....I've seen more than I'm willing to read over the last 27 years!!!
last 3 days of downside volume...4/1.. 1.55myn...4/2.. 612k...4/3..344k.....upside volume today 721k so far.....somebody that pays to attention to volume would say about those numbers.....the volume dried up at the lows....we hope!!!
jeal..almost sounds like the 27 converts were not able to be converted until now....not that it matters....convert players are pretty savvy in the way they hedge against there convert positions by using options and stock.....when a convert is that deep in the money....you can guarantee that a portion of them have been "synthetically" converted
im not sure how other convert deals are settled when the conversion is made....but i find it interesting that idc is offering to settle in cash or stock or a combination of both
volume is much lighter today...lets see what the end of the day brings....ITS NEVER EASY.....nor is it supposed to be!!
i dont trust this guy....i think he sings and dances to someone else's tune
This guy is sketchy...starts us off with a sell....then has to play catch up....and winds up with the highest price target....and a few months later cuts it 40 points for kicks.....I think we are being played by this "analyst"
chill....that fine and dandy....but with 100 pct institutional ownership that generrally freely lent....not sure it matters....also if held in ira...not "supposed "to be lent out without you signing an hypothication agreement
dws....because of the short interest....the amount of shaes "floating around out there".....is close to 119% of the outstanding shares...those shares are held by longs...lets say...guys like us
jeal..."did it pay for itself" ?....id say at the current moment in time....yes..the hedges paid off....1 year ago ..NO....2 years from now WTFknows...
jeal...the whole trade was constructed around hedging out dilution from conversion when the stock price moves beyond the stated conversion price on the notes....since the price of the stock is well beyond the stated conversion price at this point....im sure the trade was created with this scenario in mind if early conversion occurred....and can be "deconstructed" in a orderly manner....which we might have seen some of already
vegas...im gonna stick with the theory that it involves the converts....the options that idc holds as part of the antidultion hedge....are privately written by a third party....and are not exchanged traded....and could have been part of this transaction....remember....the converts are actually being converted by the holders....at much lower prices....its very interesting trying to track all the moving parts of the convert transaction
vegas ..was ther a price on that report?
that has to have something to do with the converts as far as im concerned...what is total amount of converts?
stick around vegas...your input is highly valued....this sh8t is about to get intertesting!!
ok boys...the games on...da shortz...shorted into a million share day on feb 1.....my best guess was they were raising a little bit of the white flag....they didnt...there was big buyers that day...if i was one of their soldiers...id be looking for a way out....this aint no easy target w/ a P/E of 15 ...and an about to be increased dividend
Looks like 5 o clock Charlie showed up a little early
big buy...pacer advisors...#3 holder...#1 non index holder...thats good action!!!
open interest doesnt seems that big....less than 5000 calls across the board....is that large for this stock?....i really dont follow the options
we're up a good amunt in pre mkt this morning....anybody have a clue as to whats going on??
looks like volume has dried up....after a bout of selling
hey guys...we"re at 110....and i still here the echoes of the low teens....i guess led zeppelin had it right...THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME....samdogg ...ill see at the resteraunt on next thursday at 12.30...attendance will be apparently sparse!!
my guess is vegas split town...a week or two ago
there is selling today...across the board in technology....and weve been among the hottest stocks
ok...that makes two.....im psyched to visit the" scene of the crime"!!!
israt....looks like a nice place and menu...right by the old ASM hotel we use to have our get togethers the night before the ASM....anybody willing to committ to luch next thurs 2/29 for the KOP 115??
125 was the previous price objective on this same chart....after a reversal and breakout it changed to 180
here you go boys...just for sh8ts and giggles
https://stockcharts.com/freecharts/pnf.php?c=IDCC,PWTADANRBO[PA][D][F1!3!!!2!20]
so im trying to put together a plan...2 thursdays from now is febuary 29th...leap year.....i would like to put together a luncheon in or near the kop area ...for all of us who would like to meet and greet...if anybodys intertested please respond here with ideas for a place to go...and/or willingness to attend....we'll call it the KOP 100....or who knows...we'll establish the number on that day???...
david...i agree with you......there were also others....howard was very instrumental with his visionary thoughts on IPR....harry was the guy with the tenacity to say no....and to challenge the manufacturers to pay up...and defer gratitude to the shareholders....ridgeley ran the important end of the business with a scientists mind....and bill merritt worked like a tireless sled dog....in a period of where we were going through max litigation and the advent of the smartphone...im hoping that we have similiar talent sitting in our seats now....and im sorry...a special shout out to the immortal sherwin seligsohn....who without his truely visionary desire to trade stocks from his beach blanket in 1972.......imcc idc idcc would not exist.....AND WOULDNT BE ABOUT TO PROSPER!!!
oh man...i was thinking about you the most....hoping you were still kicking ass...i hope your beautifull wife is still kicking too...we had so much fun meeting with the guys at the annual meeting the night before ...those were great times...lets get together....ill drive down to have lunch with you....now i have a big smile!!!
Cap? = Emil?
cap...i could have wrote that post....i had so many shares... that i think about it...now at 64 and say....what the hell was wrong with me....and then i had 2 houses ...3 kids in college ...and 6 cars in the driveway......and many sleepless nights....and now i sleep like a baby when it goes down....and im smiling in my sleep when it goes up....ive sold along the way...like i should have....to finance life...but there will never come a point where idc is still an independent company...and i dont own shares....its been the ride of a lifetime!!!
another myn shares traded today!!!
leon....we're good right here....up 11% is generally followed by a down day!!
good job Joe!!
unless we see another 2myn share day in the meantime...the report that includes the 15th...will be a big tell
so far they just keep pushing more chips into the middle of the table....thats why im anxious to see what happened yesterday....if there is a significant drop in short interest...we will know it was them who caused the spike....at most they could have bought back 500k yesterday....and if they sold more...so be it
im dying to see the short report that includes yesterdays nearly 2 myn share explosion
