InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

There's no way he is a plant. Something is going on that I perceive to be a positive. There is a huge perceived conflict of interest here if Oistamo is representing both parties who are in litigation with one another. Not going to happen any time any place. Either the parties have made up with one another or Oistamo no longer provides advisory or any other type of services to Nokia.

On the one hand, if the parties have come to some kind of an understanding, it is a huge positive for both sides. If Oistamo is no longer affiliated with Nokia, then we have someone who understands Nokia's thinking and could help kraft a settlement knowing what IDCC has that may be of value to Nokia in the future. Either way I perceive it to be a positive for IDCC.

Speaking of bargains, someone (option players) is hitting the price hard today keep the stock below 50. IMO, it started last Thursday but then the company kicked them in the arse by releasing upward guidance Thursday after hours. They let the stock float on Friday and are back at it today. Bought back half my trading shares that were sold on Friday anticipating these results. Will get the other half if they try to peg the $47.50 options.
