InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

To keep an intelligent level of discussion we all must respect each others opinions even the analysts. I also am guilty of hammering Marsala when he released the downgrade. I posted out of frustration that the stock went down. I was wrong.

The goal here is to make money. If we don't listen to opposite points of view we lose our objectivity and our investments become blind. Whether we agree with TC or Marsala is debatable but respecting their point of view should not be.

Case in point, the last CC. When Marsala started asking questions to Howard regarding actions that IDCC could take versus Nokia, how would it look if Howard started to bring up the downgrade and called Marsala stupid for doing this? Howard politely answered his question and follow ups with no emotion.

Both these analysts are still here. When IDCC delivers they will tell their clients to start purchasing shares again. This will drive the price up. So in my opinion a downgrade is far superior to dropped coverage.
