Mickey, You said, "IDCC could easily help the stock with any kind of a dividend, but for some reason they have yet to declare a dividend."
I agree with that 1000%.
Although I don't care for Kramer he stated one time companies need to keep cash to grow the company but if they fail to do so then they should declare a dividend.
IDCC's has been looking for years to invest in something and so far has found nothing so a dividend is probably in order.
I wouldn't care if they bought a company that makes bobby pins as long as it makes money as that's much better than getting 1% or less on your cash.
