i just kind of think its reached its peak and alot of people are disconnecting themselves from it for various reasons. I look for the fad to fall off very soon and get replaced by something new (if not completely different). I just dont see how it goes up over the long haul

No way. Facebook will go the way of Myspace in a few years as it is replaced by something unforseen....

going to be largest IPO ever. regular investors won't be able to get it at a good price (even the target opening prices are 'overvalued'). Beginning trading will be very volatile. Company will be worth 100B after this IPO. Facebook isn't going anywhere or being replaced by anything. To even mention Myspace in the same sentence is ridiculous, let alone trying to compare the two.

sometimes the most simple, and obvious things are overlooked in swamps of technical data....i dont have to look at a single chart or analysis to know that facebook would not be a good investment for me and I have a large amount of risk in my portfolio...

really what the fuck is facebook? how did it grow? its a company and site that is a slave of a young, fickle, population who would abondon it in a split second when something cooler or faster comes along....how long before Apple and Google really penetrate into social networking and start raping the user base??

I didn't say anything about Facebook stock being a buy at iPo time I said its not going anywhere any time soon. Comparing it to MySpace is just plain stupid. MySpace was mismanaged from the beginning.

It will definitely pop on opening day, if the offering price is $35, expect it to open at 45 - $50, I'm trying to get in on the IPO, will find out thursday if I get any shares.

Puhlease are you really going to stick to your statement that Facebook is just another MySpace? Before you do, you might want to compare their respective revenue streams last quarter, as well as the number of unique users.

no they are not the same now at this moment...but IMO they will share the same fate...to totally disregard the historical significance of overpricing a social media company is simply ignorant...

They've tried, and failed miserably so far.
