Invested In FB Stocks

I'd say it wasn't a good buy. Although you might want to wait until they integrate more money on mobile advertising. I'm pretty sure they'll integrate instragram to do this. Will be interesting.​

I also bought FB stock and I got it at 38.01 per share. It has now fallen but i am not worried about it. Facebook just bought a new mobile gifting company the same day their IPO was released. They know that their money and new revenue streams will come through mobile marketing / development. Most of Facebook's users are checking and interacting through their mobile devices. This is a market that Facebook has not even begun to tap into.

1. Mark Zuckerberg is a genius
2. They have some of the most talented and bright minds in the world working at Facebook
3. They have several untapped markets - mobile, asian markets, etc.
4. People invest their entire life into Facebook with photos, memories, etc.

Facebook is not going anywhere.

Do I think the stock was overvalued at IPO?, yes that is possible. When you have 900M followers, have penetrated half of the earth's internet users - even the lamest of marketing ideas and sales can help you become filthy rich and make insane profits. Then their stock will soar!

I believe in FB!

I dissagree with a LOT of you, Yahoo NEVER EVER reached a worth of 95 billion. Matter of fact, very few dot coms have. I think its a solid investment. In 10 years , i see Facebook still going strong and a great place to advertise. Geolocation advertisements is genius. As well as hitting particular age groups of certain types of people, you can almost PINPOINT who you want to advertise to. Good luck OP, but i think its a solid investment.

As i see, You know about Investment and Shares a lot )) Then SELL the house (if you have it ,) and buy FB Shares, do it, dont wait or you'll loose the oportunity to became HOMELESS )))

Oh and yes - you guys who are saying that nobody needs FB are all correct, but there are still millions upon millions of users on it everyday even though they don't need it. Its like an addiction and they cant stop using it

People were addicted to Myspace like glue before Facebook popped up.. how do you know the same thing wont happen to Facebook?

There will always be the next best thing in social networking.

for one, i dont think something will replace FB because to many old people (referring to my own family) on this thing. it was a stretch getting them on there and they are not looking for the next big thing. HERE IS SOMETHING FUNNY, i posted on FB the day before the IPO went live and i said that i thought FB would be the PERFECT short sale stock for after the first day. guess what, HOURS LATER my account had been removed. they refuse to give it back lol. EFF FACEBOOK!! it was 100% clean, NOTHING shady. just posted that i wanted to short them and POOF they removed me. no free speach there!

And that is why I think Facebook won't stay for long. If they keep making decisions that will make users very very unhappy, I think users will leave.

But, you know, It wouldn't be a horrible idea to throw some change at the stock just in case it does pull a Google/Apple. Who knows?

It wouldn't be a horrible idea if you couldn't do anything else with that money.

Times we live are completely different from those in which Google and Apple grew crazy. Besides, those 3 companies are completely different from each other. FB is IMHO the most volatile of the 3. They grew on top of complete thin air.

But really, we dont need FB. We need google but not FB...
It may go the way of myspace but take a little longer.

There's no need for facebook like there is Google. Unless they start an adsense program for facebook users, I think they will not ever make it back up.

Why do people keep saying we need google? We don't! Google is still better than its competitors but we really don't need it!

Do yourselves a favor and don't buy google based on "we need google, so it'll grow".

This kind of thinking has a name. Wishful thinking!

Keep your eyes open.

I have been able to 1000/day click the FB ads with price 0.01 USD per click

You can invest in every single stock. You just need to know how.

Even dogs can make money. Be a chartist and you will make money

There's alot of people that have quit FB in the past week,due to the IPO,which means its revenues are going to drop further.

This is just my opinion and has nothing to do with stocks...

There is no comparison between FB and My Space. Well they are both social networks but that's about it. People did not invest their entire lives into MySpace - let me give you an example...

I know people who have years and years of photo galleries, posts, replies, likes etc. These are all memories. It s like having a virtual photo album online and its pretty much there forever. There are also services like Photobucket that will do things like this, but if I really want to get to know someone, I can look through their FB page and learn so much about them - who they are related to, what are their interests, their experiences, are they married, where they work, and the list goes on. This is what has created such a strong demand for FB. Its like making an investment, once I have 5 years on images uploaded in FB all organized with comments and likes, I am not willing to let it go. I know people that try to "quit" FB and they cant do it. As far as I can see in the US, this is not going away. People use it, if you are any successful business, you have a FB fan page and if you have 5000 fans on your FB fan page, you aren't shutting that down no matter what FB does. It is too integrated, its not going anywhere.

What if you could import all that into the next big thing?

Of course this is just my opinion too. I think FB is too volatile. I don't believe my kids will ever use FB because it won't be around or be cool when they start doing something with a computer.

whats your thoughts on Groupon? i like their business and they took a big hit having to rerelease earning numbers

Groupon's business model is shitty they often f**k over the business that run groupons and themselves. I think their close to irrelevant at this point.

 

[Tony_Stark]

I agree with this. I don't think that the business models are viable long term. I have some friends that own businesses and have done these deals and they don't really see a huge benefit because the types of customers that they get are "deal hunters". I think these will die off in the near future.

Internet marketers becoming share traders?
This may start a new investment craze.
Burger flippers buying McDonald shares and becoming overnight stock experts.

Papa stock market only believes in earnings. If FB cannot increase earnings to reduce their currently overvalued P/E it will get owned by the market.

Money talks not memories, you sound like those people who thought AAPL will keep going up after it went above 600.

 

[Roparadise]

To everyone saying that there is 900 million active users, there really isnt. FB is counting any account that logs in per day as an active account. Even fake accounts that log in at least once a day are counted.

 

[FunkyWaltz]

I believe facebook can have it's spot taken from them in the social networking world. It set a standard, but when there are new things... They are just that, NEW, EXCITING, and more desirable. Everyone saw it being the next Google and it couldn't even compare. Dot Coms had their day on the market.

Someone did their homework!!! Even Pepsi Co is overvalued. Undervalued or AT VALUE is soooo difficult to come by in any of the top 100 or even 500.
