    silly rabbit. how do you know it will ever settle at 15? how do you know it won't tank further if you bought at 15?

    I'd stay away from the stock market if i didn't know whottt i was doing, which most of us including people who study the crap don't. Computer trading has ed up.
    This. I've got a mutual fund for retirement, but it pretty much invests in relatively stable companies (pepsis, walmarts, etc etc). At least, they were stable last time I checked.

    Plus I started that when the stock market bottomed out, so I shouldn't be down too bad.

    I haven't a clue what to say. I have no idea how they could have been so wrong, unless it is either a symptom of our new education standards, or corruption.

    Yep.

    Unless you have the time to do some lengthy research, or are psychic, very few individual stocks are a safe way to invest. The only good ones are among those that pay out regular capital gains and/or dividends.

    I agree. Stick with mutual finds. Most mutual find managers keep a sane balance to not go upside-down with them.

    greed. It's all about greed.

    they knew exactly what they were doing. Just trying to steal as much money as they can from those dumb morons before the next economic collapse.

    So they "stole" as much money as they could from people who willingly bought their stock even with all the valuation questions, then planned on losing 25% of their new-found wealth in a couple of weeks, and another 6% of the remainder so far today?

    I'd say they didn't know exactly what they were doing.

    LOL "losing"

    they didn't lose . They made 100 billion out of thin air and then the 25% you claim they "lost" was just that, thin air.

    they still keeping 75% of 100 billion and will be cashing out most of it.

    like I said, the robbers will cash in regardless:

    Facebook already unleashed millions of shares to wary investors. Now the technology giant's early investors are about to see if they can force-feed millions more.
    Starting in just a few months, select insiders and early investors in Facebook will be free to sell their shares as the so-called lock-up period expires. Some fear the flood of stock available for trading could further inundate investors and water down Facebook's share price, already 26% below the $38 initial public offering price. Facebook fell 65 cents Wednesday to $28.19.

    The valuation at 100 billion directly affected the share price which in turn valuated the initial big investors shares. Greed is what caused this IMO because they wanted the biggest cake possible to start with.

    When they start cashing out they will be taking real money and leaving air filled shares.
