Comment on FB new low (18.23), down 52% from 38 IPO price

Comments

Compare that with SPLK. Apparently there's something to this whole 'build stuff people will buy' thing.

Let's compare, shall we? Last year, Splunk lost a few million dollars on revenues of 66M. Facebook profited $1BN on revenues of 3.7BN.

Guess there's something to businesses that generate lots of snarky comments.

Funny, I just today found Splunk, when I was searching for sparkline implementations and theirs was open sourced. I browsed a bit and thought this is a cool company, which I need to evaluate for investing. A tad too late to benefit from today's spike in SPLK's price...
