Facebook ‘most valuable company ever’
My expectations of Facebook shares is they will rise after the IPO in the short term.
Ie. they will trade above what fundamentals will suggest due to sheer demand of people wanting to own a slice of Facebook.
Medium term I'm not so confident as Facebook has to prove itself.
Longterm if it can monetize it's assets then yes it could grow to a $200billion plus company however that is a speculative trade at this point.
I'm more bullish on stocks like Apple and Google which represent far better Read more [...]

When is a budget really a budget? – Jamie McIntyre
If everyone created budgets like our current Government, we'd all be in a bit of financial bother.

What do I mean?

Who is buying Facebook Shares? And should you? – Jamie McIntyre
Facebook shares are due to go public in coming weeks as one of the largest Tech IPOs of all time raising as much as $10billion and a market valuation close to $100billion.
It currently generates around $3.7billion in sales and just under $1billion in profit.
At a $100billion valuation which is the price private share trades have been taking place, that's a massive 100 times earnings multiple compared to 13 times average for the stock market.
However it isn’t unusual for a fast growing Read more [...]
Time is running out to buy into US Property by Jamie McIntyre
We are seeing further price growth and more competition in the US property market confirming that, in key markets, we are seeing the bottom of the US Property market with growth starting to occur.
Unfortunately many investors will wait until almost everyone is talking about buying US Property before they finally consider it and often by then the best time to buy is gone.
I don't expect a fast recovery in the market.
However when you can buy houses that were $250,000 for $58,000 and bank Read more [...]

Facebook's revenue declined sequentially in the first quarter, the weakest top-line performance by the world's largest social media network since at least 2010.
Facebook, which is preparing for an initial public offering that could value it at up to $US100 billion, said spending roughly doubled over the past 12 months, outpacing the 45 per cent revenue increase during the period.
Net income slid 12 per cent to $US205 million in the Read more [...]
