hakujin said:   morgan stanley interfering now, I guarantee you. new bottom is 35. they are providing resistance, it's obvious.

watch time and sales. i don't know how $ they have left, but there is a floor at 35.

Didn't take long to go from 35 to 34 which looks like where they're holding now. I'm surprised they didn't just keep the 38 up. So far a volume of 50m shares... some of that must be mm selling

It's a shame options weren't available

watching AAPL closely. if it hits 540 that's probably where I will close my puts and keep my profits. holding onto my BIDU puts for sure, likely that stock is heading to 110 soon.


rated:

This is going to kill the IPO market for a while. 34.00 was the IPO range - may be it will hold there.


Hopefully, money will move into companies that have actual profits., growth prospects and products.

Edit- crashed thru 34 as I was typing it.


rated:

down 13%.

if you'll notice, it'll resist at every dollar, and then BOOM. closing in on 33.00 now.

facebook analysts saying 31 is fair market value. 633 million shares outstanding.

guess u should went 10% shares outstanding FB and not have been so GREEDY. what i am saying? Their CEO doesn't even care about the stock price, he cashed his chips out on fri.

Would have to think this has to be good for FAZ eventually if these big investment banks are getting killed on this IPO.

I know ZNGA is a crap company, but the beating its taking seems excessive, for now at least.

probably. this one trader I follow mentioned that LNKD was starting to look like a good short. if all my $ wasn't tied up, may have gone in on that.

TZA and TWM now green. pretty weak rally, I was worried there would be more of a pop, but it looks like it's already fading.

and look FB is now at the bottom of the IPO range the underwriters said the first time before it was raised.

I don't even think they are so much a 'crap' company; their partner is hurting them something big.

I just drove by their HQ yesterday in SF... wanted to pour a 40oz on the front door in sympathy.


LNKD doesn't strike me as overvalued. Of the 'net stocks (GRPN, FB, P, ZNGA, etc.) they seem like the best company IMO. I think they're taking a hit because of FB.

I just sold Jun 16 strike covered calls for 0.84 on the shares that were put to me.

Any guesses what the market will look like this week? Are we just getting a rally day today, and then back on the decline the rest of the week?

People have realized that FB is a flop and they are moving money back into AAPL.

I don't understand, if FB is such a loss, how can MS rises?

rated:

closed out TZA +11%, FAZ +18%, TWM +11%. protect your gains! I got killed earlier when I traded by hoping the stocks would rebound and not just selling. This time around I protected my profits and cut losers like CBOU early.


rated:

next resistance on AAPL is around 560. If it breaks 560 on strong volume I'll go long. If AAPL sheds these gains during the afternoon, I'll re-enter short.


rated:

FB, ZNGA, YELP and LKDN don't look good today.

kantscholar said:   MS, GS, and JPM can just keep buying shares if people want to sell them. As I said on Friday, if I knew that three companies with a nearly endless pool of cash was backstopping a stock at some price, I'd love to get into that stock at that price.

It was trading around 38 a few times friday. Ample opportunity to get in. Why didn't you?


I don't by stock in companies that don't do anything. Facebook has no products of any significance. All they are is a platform for advertising that probably won't be relevant in 5 years. I've said all of that before. I also said in a post of about two weeks ago (that you redded) that the FB IPO marks the top of the "social media" boom just like the Blackstone IPO marked the top of the market there. The people running these companies know far, far more than any of us do about their own industry. The best are smart enough to sell at the top (or at least pretty close to the top).

As for the trades, people wouldn't be complaining if it went the other way. If they put in a buy order at 41, the order went pending because it already had been filled, and then FB closed at 50+ at the end of the day, everyone would be happy.

As for my investment return, I post all of my trades on here. You can track them--it's pretty easy to do. The only trades I have on right now involve CHK and XHB. The CHK position is close to even and the XHB position is up about 25% and I'll be looking to take it off with any other significant move down. How about you post some of yours (if you're making any) instead of just lurking/redding my posts/not contributing to the discussion.

Yes, I'm 3700 sharesdeep at 11.50. I'm also too stubborn to sell, I'm what you call a retarded strong hand; going down with the ship. I'll most likely have to hold for a year.

Oh, sorry, CHK. I sold May 16 strike puts last month for 44 cents. Those got put on me. I've turned around and sold Jun 16 strike covered calls for 84 cents for all of those shares. So I've picked up 1.28 in options value, which means my break-even for those CHK shares is 14.72. If CHK closes above 16 by opex in June, I'll have made 1.28 or ~7.5% in the month and a half. If CHK doesn't close above 16, then I'll go and sell Jul covered calls on those shares.

The only other open CHK position I have is short 15 strike Jun puts at 1.30.

Closed my GOOG position at a small loss. 100% cash at the moment.
