What: Shares of photograph pioneer Eastman Kodak
So what: Eastman Kodak investors are waiting breathlessly today for a decision from the U.S. International Trade Commission on whether to review a judge's ruling on Kodak's patent suit against Apple
Now what: Obviously a favorable ruling in this case doesn't fix the problems at Eastman Kodak. To a large extent it's still a buggy-whip company trying to adapt to the age of autos.

Adding a fresh $1 billion to that revenue stream would give the company a bunch of extra firepower in its efforts.
