I played TWTR earnings. Ouch! TWTR is no FB. Moving on.
Interesting idea but isn't there a rule where private companies cannot have more than 'x' owners or else they are forced to go public? I wonder if "subleasing" private shares would be allowed (I would assume no unless authorized by the company, which I doubt they would like), and how that would affect the ownership/forced to go public rule.
I'll say honestly that I don't see the value of FB, TWTR, LNKD etc. Yes, FB has monetized well enough so they have SOME value, but I can't imagine how TWTR will monetize their business well enough to give a valuation even in billions at all. I just don't see it happening especially in the long run of 10+ years. The whole social media thing to me from valuation point of view is history repeating itself like the .com boom and crash. They'll go up at crazy valuations like FB and TWTR are right now and then at some point it'll burst and they will take all the MoMo stocks with them. TSLA has a clear path to the valuation, the question by most shorts is that they don't believe they will achieve the sales numbers that the valuation accounts for, but for FB and TWTR I cannot imagine how they could ever reach the revenue streams that would give them this valuation as natural...
I got one helluva shock this morning when I saw what's happened to my Green Mt. shares.
Could do with quite a few more shocks like that! Up over 30% today, as of right now......
And they almost went out in the wash in my portfolio clean-up :crying:
I picked up some GTAT before market close after seeing this rumor Apple Said To Have Acquired Sapphire Display Manufacturing Components, Diamond Cutting Tools | TechCrunch. Again it's a rumor but I hope the stock gets a big boost.
Tesla needs to show net profit and a solid foundation before this happens, otherwise it'll become collateral damage. I am timing this event for 2016. So for tesla to be absolutely rock solid, it needs to sell Model E by the end of 2015 and show the public that Model E in 2016 has traction. The timing will be tight as there will be some cringe worthy times in 2016 where the market tries to figure out if tesla is a dot com stock or if it is the next Ford.
That's the Osborne effect, named after the ill-fated pre-announcement of its new generation of computer. Once the announcement was made, no one wanted to buy their current product, and so the company ran out of money before they could get the new generation out the door.If the model E came out in 2015, no one would buy the model s or the model x. They would have shot themselves in the foot. There's a good case study of that- I forget the name- of a computer company that advertised a better product in 1 year and couldn't sell their current product so went bankrupt. Anyone remember what that was?
