IMO, there is a somewhat greater chance of settlement after the Markman hearing itself, but before any written ruling that may be issued. Both sides will then have gauged the demeanor of the judge and whatever else goes on in the courtroom, which can, although not always, provide a fairly good indicator of the result."
In your experience, a judge will make his thoughts known? As opposed to being 'poker faced' and nobody having a clue as to what way he might be leaning? While you have also said that the hearing could be dry, it sounds like a person could pick up a lot of subtle things. But you would have to fairly astute to this kind of thing otherwise one would be apt to misunderstand.
A lot of people talk about finding a 10xer stock. The longer we stay around this 60 price, the more likely we are viewed as a 60 cent stock (as opposed to, well they were just at .08). And with some positive developments, we certainly have the potential to be another 10xer.
And lastly, I saw a small mutual fund company sold out their position in PTSC. Could not find when they sold out though. And it wasn't a huge position. But it made me wonder why someone would sell when the best is yet ahead (we think)
