ipos

Saw facebook and twitter among others coming out..is FB gonna be a good buy or do you guys think its a fad that's about done?

watch out for google plus, finally there is a rival to facebook.  the google beta hasn't caught too many attention, but it offers a lot.  mark zuckerberg is already fighting back with skype. 

Yeah I saw some stuff on plus just figured FB has such a headstart it will be tough to rival with the amount of users...they will also b able to just keep adding features...hell my kids and all their friends have accounts and they aren't even but 10 yes old

ipos are a great thing to short. Read Jim Cramer's book "life of a street addict". I have followed ipo's since I read his book and I would say off of memory that at least 80% are pumped up right out of the block then the same guys that pumped it, dump it and make huge profits; similiar to penny stocks.
