ZAGG (ZAGG) is trading up on earnings. We do not believe that ZAGG’s earnings are sustainable and will continue to maintain a small short position. Anyone holding a short position in ZAGG may trim right here as there is a risk of a short squeeze. Please hold positions only in such size that you are comfortable to hold during a potential short squeeze. Those not in the ZAGG may wait for higher prices before entering. We partially exited ZAGG at $15.65. If ZAGG falls below $14.88, consider short selling enough quantity to reach 100%
We are short a 5% tranche on InterDigital (IDCC) at $66.03. This is for aggressive traders who can handle a very volatile stock. Target zone for InterDigital is $55 to $57. Stop zone is $68. to $71. Please keep quantities of InterDigital very small. The reason is that GOOG will not bid for this company because it no longer needs its patents after MMI acquisition. Full disclosure: subscribers to ZYX Short Sell Change Alert may also be short InterDigital from a similar level.

On the other hand GOOG may handle it all in-house, then Acacia Research will be a loser. We are simply providing information and not recommending.
