    If I had the cash I think a 6 month bet might be a good idea as I'm sure it'll go up in that sort of time frame. Wouldn't want to hold on to it for longer than that though. We all know how quickly the tech scene changes!

    Re: News - The Facebook IPO is already oversubscribed

    if i had the cash i'd buy and sell them within about 3 hours they will massively peak on the day of sale aand then settle after that surely. I still have no idea how they can be valued so highly though the internet bubble is insane sometimes

    Looks like the Unabomber sketch. Hope Murdoch rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishs a tonne of cash down the toilet on this one too.

    Hope FB will pay its taxes, like Google, Amazon and all other socially responsible IT companies do.

    Re: News - The Facebook IPO is already oversubscribed

    You'd have to be mad to take part in this in my opinion - short term gains would be so low (after transaction charges + exchange rates) that it won't be worth your time, and long term it's a HUGE risk.

    The popularity here is driven purely by emotion imo, not be reasoned investment.
