So is Facebook really worth $38 a share?

[ChumpDumper]

so then why do you nitpick on little ?

You post stupid . It's fun to point that out.

[Out of nowhere goods]

'umpdump tiptoeing through the tulips, pulling at daisies, and bringing the short answer pecking away make em bleed to death annoying bads par per etc

[ChumpDumper]

it wasn't stupid whenever i told yall months in advance not to buy facebook stock and predicted the massive tanking monday, before the previous friday afternoon even rolled around. call it stupid all you want dumb , but there is no reason to assume that facebook will be around forever. that's the point i'm making, billions of people won't be religiously on facebook in 10 years. disagree or no?

It's a straw man considering what I was actually talking about.

You're so sensitive lately.

[ChumpDumper]

so then grow some balls and clearly state what your beef is and why you feel a need to argue with me in the thread.

Not really arguing tbh. Told you I was just pointing out stupid .

You never said why you are so sensitive.

[ChumpDumper]

what's stupid? be specific.

i have 8 friends online right now. 2 years ago, that number in the summer would have been 30 or 40. usage is down, check the numbers. this article is only from 6 months ago and backs my claim.

lol personal anecdote

I don't know why you have to be such an asshole and then wonder why I respond to you harshly.

You respond harshly most of the time anyway. You're just being more emo than usual.

Don't really care too much about fb as it is. Of course it was overvalued. Not my problem.

[ChumpDumper]

articles are not personal bud, actually read it and try again.

Actually the author used a personal anecdote as well.

[ChumpDumper]

Facebook may have run its course.

Of course, it’s too early to tell

lol definitive

[ChumpDumper]

And?

[ChumpDumper]

so whats your beef? agree or no?

Don't really care.

guess well see what happens. i know what i got my money on.

What money?

[mavs>spurs]

you don't really care, you just wanted to pester me.

[ChumpDumper]

Pretty much.

You've been quite emo and paranoid lately -- an easy mark.

[spursncowboys]

so whats your beef? agree or no? guess well see what happens. i know what i got my money on.

His beef is with logic.

[ChumpDumper]

His beef is with logic.

lol brothers in butthurt

[coyotes_geek]

Testing $30 today..........

[MannyIsGod]

Slower growth =! falling usage.

[RandomGuy]

In answer to the OP, which I'm sure others have gotten there;

Apparently not.

LOL shareholder lawsuits. I wonder if Zuckerberg will unfriend them...

[RandomGuy]

His beef is with logic.

Maybe that logic can explain gas prices without running away.

After Facebook, More Fear of Stock Market

The excitement surrounding Facebook's initial public offering was enough for Alex Tsesis, a law professor, to give the stock market one more try. But after the company's stock encountered technical problems then sputtered for three days, he sold his few hundred shares for a $2,200 loss and vowed to end his equity gambles for good.

"I'm just extremely skeptical about the ability of a retail purchaser to be able to play on a level field in the market," said Mr. Tsesis, who is 45 and lives in Chicago. "I'm just trying to get out of stocks."

Mr. Tsesis is part of a growing retreat from the stock market, a trend that began before the Facebook debut. The portion of Americans invested in the stock market dropped this year to its lowest level since Gallup started asking, every two years, in 1998 - 53 percent said they were in the market in April, compared with a high of 67 percent in 2002 and 65 percent as recently as 2007, before the financial crisis. A Bankrate poll in April found that only 17 percent of respondents were more likely to invest in the stock market, even with the small amount of interest they earn on bank deposits.

The financial industry had hoped that Facebook, the highly anticipated and biggest-ever tech offering, would rekindle ordinary investors' excitement in stocks. Instead, first-day trading snags, a 16 percent decline in the new stock's price and suggestions that warnings were exchanged among professional investors about Facebook's prospects have stoked fears that the stock market may not be safe for everyone.

"This added gasoline to a fire that was already burning," said Craig Ferrantino, the president of the financial advisory Craig James Financial Services in Melville, N.Y. .

The price is too high. I'm not interested unless it drops to $19 with signs it will recover.

[Wild Cobra]

Nevermind.

Just read something that makes me not want to buy, even at $10.

[Wild Cobra]

One article has Facebook's actual value at $7.50 per share.

Getting bearish on Facebook shares

In the first day for Facebook options, the bearish puts outnumbered calls by 1.26 to 1, said Brian Overby, a senior options analyst at online brokerage TradeKing of Florida. Facebook debuted as the second-most actively traded option behind Apple Inc. with 366,409 total contracts.

Put options grant investors the right to sell the stock at a predetermined price, while call options give owners the right to buy a stock at a preset price.

"It's giving people another way to short the stock, and you are seeing people jump on it," Overby said. "The options market can drive the actual stock price."
