maybe I'll wait for JD.com. I've always backed the dark horse...

In other news, Candy Crush is set around $22.50 for their IPO. I think they're going to get their candies crushed!

they haven't had a successful second opportunity so I would agree.

but 2.9x sales is low for the category. They're priced better then Zynga was at IPO
 
apparently it wasn't low enough

ask for 22.50 open at 20.50 and now sitting at 19

down about 15% already

ouch

(I don't see how they were valued at $7B with revenue of $2)

ps - I have a buy order in at $12 which may change depending on how aggressive the slide continues

my only one - but I'm fairly new to this so I am playing it safe

they released a shit ton of shares as well (120M)- for @$2B in revenue 2013 to have I assume close to 300M shares total internal, sounds super diluted

Goog announced a dividend/stock split today

they're going to release x amount of class "c" stock (googl) per 1 share class "a" stock (goog)

I've never seen this happen before like this
 
you lost me in turn two, I suspected KING was an odd symbol for Alibaba.
Other than that, my comments stand.

KING is no for me at any price.

GOOG doubled in the last two years. Would have been an obvious investment..I see it everyday. Thats what I look for, and never seem to see till its too late. Why try to outsmart a market thats willing to give you profits on a silver platter with tricky little IPOs and such? Cause it would be too easy....? All in the timing.

AGNC just went ex-div...14.38% annually.

Onward...

After looking into Zynga more, I agree. They haven't seen much over $5 since they tanked.
 
ACI
run a 50 and 200 day SMA over a three month period.


major downgrades, and up better than 5% on average volumne. Just read the DOE is pursuing low emission gasification of coal to produce, ta-da, hydrogen. as in fuel cells.

I started in at 11, and averaged down to 6.53, currently down thousands.

horses don't get no darker than this...:nchantr
sure hope I didn't fuck up here..
