I love a good conspiracy but I sort of doubt anything can fend off the lawsuits at this point ...

I think it's more likely that the app store concept and some retail investor interest is providing the ~30 support.

Why doesn't StockWatch have a headline for when the Russell decided they were going to put FB in the Russell 3000? Seems to me that is probably what has influenced the bounce the last couple weeks.

Yes, that should be headline-worthy. Kinda hard to avoid including FB with its massive market cap in a 3000-member index based on market cap though. FB still selling 105 P/E. No excuse for that. There's gotta be a major manipulation factor here.
 
Wiki:

Much of (Yuri) Milner's early career was spent working for Mikhail Khodorkovsky, a business tycoon who has since been imprisoned.
(imprisoned for fraud and tax evasion)

For information on the nature of Mr. Milner's relationshp with Mr. Zuckerberg check the Wiki article on him.

all you guys are talking about is this argument about a huge difference in the opinions of many investors...
the truth always comes out in the wash.. and to me it seems that last time i check no one can see into the future.. granted intuition helps but risk management keeps you in business! and the greater the difference in opinions the greater the move in the stock when reality strikes!
so therefore.. i would suggest a long volatility trade.. since at some point the cats going to out of the bag and fb is going to come up with a way to kill it with all that information we just give them about ourselves or its bust and the stock gets cut in half... so my thoughts learn to ratio backspread with options... short one call at a lower strike then your long two... 1x2 such that you are liable for just the difference between the strikes and the cost is a slight debit or credit.... if your completely wrong you don't have to pay so big for it! yet if fb blows up to be google money machine then you see exponential gains without near the investment or risk of just buying the stock

fb dont waste time with it. you try to take $ from manipulators with tons of superior info. who knows maybe that is main fb income :)

will revisit somewhere in the future
 
Chartwise, FB looks to be making a lower high....and it's definitely rolling over now. 33 was the recent high...that's a good stop loss on short positions.
FB earnings announcement will be huge, but even larger: guidance for the 3rd quarter. If the guidance is weak, look-out below.

Again my thoughts... find some leaps .. put a long vol trade in either a strangle, straddle, or a wrangle..
