He feels like from what he had read, it could mean the IP had been collateralized and would end up in someone's hands that would profit off it, rather than us longs.

This is another clue that the silent period is for good reason.

What you describe is a legitimate concern, yet mgmt have said nothing to reassure shareholders. If they don't have a damn good reason for the silence, then not communicating the strategy regarding the IP and Welch is a horrifically bad management decision.
