Re: Facebook ipo

They originally delayed it 5 minutes from 11AM, now it's delayed indefinitely, no timeframe given so far.

Re: Facebook ipo

Was quoted as crossing shares at $42 last update, then I think they took that down as part of the delay.

Wat? You cant.

How can I buy a dollar for $0.50 and sell it for $1 immediately?

Re: Facebook ipo

Well, in at 40 bucks. I guess I got the plateau I hoped for. God.. don't break under 40.
