Re: re FB - interesting to see so much blame for the FB IPO but is Mo You are getting your answer now. The bad press is brutal and you killed your trust with your buyers. YOU want to be the guy that buys at the top tick? Funds SAY they are long term but would you want an instant loss or a gain? If you have low priced shares would you be likely to add later? Probably... heh heh. if they have another IPO in the near future then yes, definitely they will be impacted.. But if FB miraculously announce a good quarter, all will be forgiven. Just think about the crash that AMZN went throught when the internet bubble bursted back in 2001-2002. The stock crash and burned then and it is rising like phoenix rightnow. The group that loss client confidence are MS and NASDA. FB as a company is really not the problem here (me think). If FB trys to sell more stock traders are going to short the hell out it before hand and give them a lower price for fear of a busted deal. You would too.... If their business performance is same-mo same-mo. I would agree with you. However, if their business performance is doing much better and stock price move up with some momentum, it should be easy for them to do another IPO (but as you suggested, they probably need to switch underwriter). Fund manager is like everyone else, if they think company is going to do well in the future and can make them money, they will pound on it. Just looked at how many discussion we had on CHK. Management burned investors so many times, but yet we still attracted to the stock if the price is right
