For businesses, Western style socialism/cronyism is even worst than actual communism (at least the current brand of communism called red capitalists seen in China and Vietnam). In states like California, you have regulations of all kind up the ying yang with the special job killers: the...

Than there's nothing "new" under the sun is it? Same pools from a 100 year ago is being replaced by hedge funds, banks, and algos. So much for this time it's difference.

Isn't this the essence of "herding" or "group think"? Or market taking the path of least resistance until being forced to re-route by external factors (i.e. events deemed large to ignore) It's nature at its finest I guess. Soros made his billions simply by observing subtle sentiment shift...

Irrational exuberance never go away do they? Thanks to Ben and ECB. Certainly a case of "crisis fatigue". The bulls never stop charging before the cliff and will never realize their mistakes until being airborne. History is full of it and why wouldn't it be any difference this time or any other...

Well...some times you have to gamble if you want to make the big bucks just like poker and hope that the market don't call your bluff. Even the "pros" got lucky. If luck is on my side, I don't care if I'm an idiot. There's telling signs/indicators such as investor's reaction to other tech...

Which come first? Chicken or egg? Funds dumping or shorts covering on Fri? So far investors are not happy with the so call "growth" stocks guidance. In the current uncertain world, the future is more important than the past. They are getting defensive to ride against the upcoming...

Now I can hear Bono singing Walk On loud and clear. He certainly did for one billion.

In the recent couple of weeks many bulls have been converted to bears. It's summer in New York, and Ben in sweating.

Tech bubble it's just yesterday. FB investors must have been on another planet/universe when that happened.

Too bad I can't trade AH from a smart phone. If this drops too much, the bulls will come in to support it tomorrow. Counter trend and fade is probably the game plan for Friday.

Fire works about to start in half an hour. This can be a possible bear killer. Better play is to just react.

25% slide yesterday on weak outlook, 6% slide today. Bulls are running scared. Not even a decent short cover/dip buying bounce yet. 12 million short interest on 55 million shares float. With a book value currently of $12 this pig still has more room to go down.

FB tanking now due to ZNGA tanking 40% from bad earning. Doesn't look good now since FB get a little bit of revenue from ZNGA. New lows might be coming.

That remove a key support to prices. Short covering. But that is even more fear mongering due to government loosing faith in the "free market". They just create their own doom with a big red sign that said "We're in big trouble guys, don't park your money here".

Just food for though...I guess. Reality, market doesn't trade on true value or rationality. I'm thinking that the market hasn't really written off FB, just yet. But it's hard to maintain very high price multiples when the growth prospect is highly suspect. Something has to give. I guess we'll...

FB is: A koi wanted to become a dragon (AAPL) A raven wanted to become a peacock (GOOG) Investors wanted to make easy money...:p (so far it's anything but easy):) Even if it does go the route of AAPL, there's still more pain to come if the stock has to fall back down closer to it's...

22% haircut on Friday 7/20 due to lower guidance for growth. I believe this is the death touch for the bulls.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/nathanvardi/2012/05/22/for-facebook-insiders-an-excruciating-wait-has-begun/ More info on all those lock up shares and why many insiders will dump. Dated but useful articles. This one has GRPN lock up price performance written all over it. Like GRPN, market players...

There's still too much "cheap" money/credit floating around if interest rate doesn't rise. Let see a) bank rates - 0-1.0<% b) 10 year treasury - 1.36% c) dividend paying stocks est - 3% (JPM) d) commodities - (silver, gold etc) down/stagnant e) cash - 0% real inflation est 4-5%...

For the occasion.
