InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

[Learning2vest]

Somebody new reading this board would have to wonder if they got the right thread. Maybe they looked at the IDCC stock chart and came looking for more understanding on a huge winner that has traded up from $6 early last August to close over $23 this week. Bet they would be prepared to see a bunch of "high five" and "to the moon, Alice" posts by the folks lucky enough, and smart enough, to have found InterDigital back then.

Nope, not this crowd. We are the "gripe of the month bunch" even as the stock we should be enjoying owning right now is finally beginning to attract the attention, and envy, of a lot more investors. Go figure. Makes me wonder who is holding what at this point. Mickey is honest to a fault, and you gotta love him/feel his pain for that, so an occasional critical jab at something mixed in with his never failing enthusiasm is highly commendable IMO. But I don't have a clue what put the bitter taste in so many other folks mouths at this point.

I started following the boards on this stock back in early 2000 as the stock was trading off that $80 spike in the last days of the bubble. Jim's crowd over on the Bull(mostly THIS crowd) stayed positive all the way down to $4.50 on December 21st of that year. Now, here we are trading back up, and the general tone is negative. Did somebody besides Mickey miss a connection somewhere along the line? Is that what all this "gripe of the month" is really about? Hmmmmm.....
