Clu Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 Is about to get their shit pushed in today. Bigly. Knowing people that have stock in their company, and bought at a good time and have made some decent dough from it.... Are going to be on suicide watch today.
Chapinator_X Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 They wouldn’t have kept it this long without selling it earlier in the year if they were really smart. The Congressional hearing alone was terrible for FB’s image, but Zuckerberg kept fucking up on such a wide scale that it would really be unwise to expect a sudden switch in the stock’s improvement for at least another 6 months to a year. That is, if Zuckerberg doesn’t continue fucking up. 1
Clu Posted July 26, 2018 Author Posted July 26, 2018 Nah, at our age we let it ride. I wouldn't ever buy tech stock though, it has proven to be unreliable... Intel being a fine example. 1
Clu Posted July 26, 2018 Author Posted July 26, 2018 The days of me being smarter than anyone in the room with stocks are long gone, if they ever existed. Which is why I'm awful at fantasy football, I over think and outplay myself. 1

wacky1980 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 i personally doubt the intelligence of anyone investing in facebook for more than a quick ride. who ever thought that was a good idea, doesn't need to be touching my money.
Clu Posted July 26, 2018 Author Posted July 26, 2018 Right, I mean if you were in the know for the occulus buyout, you made some quick change but this is stupid. I don't even know if they are considered a tech stock or not actually? I mean, they aren't tech... They use tech.
wacky1980 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 i think the best description of their business model at this point is "lowlife data peddlers" but you won't get them to admit that.

wacky1980 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 it'll be fun to watch zuc get zucced from his own company. i don't think he's been much more than a face (nopun) since their ipo, but it will still feel good.
Clu Posted July 26, 2018 Author Posted July 26, 2018 Speaking of that, I read about their poison pill clause in their sharehodker clause.

Clu Posted July 26, 2018 Author Posted July 26, 2018 Just now, wacky1980 said: at this time yesterday, or now? After this loss.
wacky1980 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 so he probably dropped a couple places on the "wealthiest assholes" list. poor little fella.

scoobdog Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 Why am I not surprised that you two get a kick out of Zuckerberg losing money?

Or just plain ol' dumb. Really, an "old-fashioned" dude would probably think to himself "Hey, what are they getting from me to make all this work worth their while?" Having a conversation with someone about your favorite beer isn't going to be worth much unless they can sell your preferences to the brewer who makes a pint similar to your favorite brew. This shit is basic. Even the whole outrage over Cambridge Analytica seems ridiculous to me: why wouldn't a campaign spend millions on this data to target voters? It's not like they're telling people what to think; just what you want to hear. Simply put, Zuckerberg did what any good businessman would do, he exploited people's carelessness to make a buck or two, and he did it with their tacit approval. Edited July 26, 2018 by scoobdog
Naraku4656 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 And there goes 6k probably yaaaaay. Should have sold a day early

You should have been paying close attention to this stock since Zuckerberg went in for hearings. Facebook really seems like one of those buy Monday sell Friday stocks to me, but I don't have the money to play like that yet. 1

You need to admit everyone that gave him that information was kind of dumb to begin with. Facebook never needed to know anything about you, until it suddenly needed to know everything. Motherfuckers asked for a copy of my state ID and I told them to fuck off. 1

Who's sucking his balls? He didn't deceive anyone; you all just didn't think far enough ahead. You know, like when you voted for Trump because he was "the lesser of two evils." How's that working out for you, by the way?
