Of course BBC will try not to lose face for letting such an idiot/nobody speak live on TV ! BBC said: "We've carried out detailed investigations and can't find any evidence to suggest that the interview... was a hoax."
On his website Mr Rastani says he is "an experienced stock market and forex trader and professional speaker".... so is my Mum !!!

dont agree with that. anyone that says that is not seeing the bigger picture.
you do realise FB has 845 million monthly ACTIVE users right? ACTIVE. Disregard people that have an account but dont use it.
And its banned in China. They are working on that now to work around it. Once they are in China then it will be (if not already after the IPO) the biggest company in the world.
People use it as a bit of fun, but you must also realise there is a whole eco system around facebook. There are companies that produce apps just for facebook and it makes them and FB fortunes.
Theres actually seminars just for people who make apps for FB. Then you have all the multi national companies putting (and paying) to put the FB logo on their brands. Its now on coca-cola cans for instance as standard.
FB are very clever as they have based their business around simple and very clever / no invasive structures. Myspace and Friends reunited are generally s**t and useless sites which go nowhere, pardon my french.
Their only downfall is that they are about to make their 1,000 staff millionaires. I sense some resignations being handed in.

These 845mio represent actually 40% of the active users of Internet... quite a decent Market Share ;-)

I think the figure for the UK alone, was that just over half the nation had a facebook account.

yep, thats all true, but you are completly missing the essence of my post. Modern day internet based technology is transformational at a frightening pace. Facebook is cool and is the 'thing right now', but go back 5yrs and it was myspace, and 2yrs before that it was friends reunited.
It doesnt matter how successful facebook is today, the next best thing will come around v v quickly, and you'll soon be making the same comments about facebook that you have made about friends reunited. The difficulty you (and everyone else including me) has, its conceiving what that technology, site, or vehicle is. And if you cant conceive it, then you have difficulty in seeing it as a threat to the business...
like i say, buy it for the short term, but anybody making a long term investment, in a business barely 5yrs old, in probably the fastest evolving industry in history is making a brave investment choice, especially when deal track records with internet sites have often disappointed....
Due diligence recommended prior to investment!

it may be ingrained in more mainstream activities, but it still fundamentally sits as a technology driven business. and the only constant in that line of business over the last 15 years is change, rapid improvement, and development. As said, the 'next best facebook thing' will take social media, everyday interactions and commercial purchasing to the next level and will make facebook look basic, in the same way that myspace looks basic and facebook advanced. It would be a brave / foolish person to bet against the pace of technology today...
If you IPO'd any other business that had been around for 7yrs (at least 3 of which it was in a different format), you'd get laughed out of the bank. Yes EBIT may be high, and thats why id buy now and sell very soon after, because internet investment dictate that that is not going to last for very long at all.
If you want a reality check, go back 10 years to the dot.com boom, when unrealistic valuations, the onset of e-commerce, and e-starts up were going to change the world. this really isnt very different at all, the only diff is that you're seduced by some big figures and a believe that it aint gonna change!
each to their own, but if you want to make money, sign up for the ipo, buy the shares and enjoy the ride as they will be hugely oversubscribed, and then get out.

You realise its turning over more than a small country in profit dont you and its 7 years old now. its not like it was built a year ago. it may be ingrained in more mainstream activities, but it still fundamentally sits as a technology driven business. and the only constant in that line of business over the last 15 years is change, rapid improvement, and development. As said, the 'next best facebook thing' will take social media, everyday interactions and commercial purchasing to the next level and will make facebook look basic, in the same way that myspace looks basic and facebook advanced. It would be a brave / foolish person to bet against the pace of technology today... If you IPO'd any other business that had been around for 7yrs (at least 3 of which it was in a different format), you'd get laughed out of the bank. Yes EBIT may be high, and thats why id buy now and sell very soon after, because internet investment dictate that that is not going to last for very long at all. If you want a reality check, go back 10 years to the dot.com boom, when unrealistic valuations, the onset of e-commerce, and e-starts up were going to change the world. this really isnt very different at all, the only diff is that you're seduced by some big figures and a believe that it aint gonna change! each to their own, but if you want to make money, sign up for the ipo, buy the shares and enjoy the ride as they will be hugely oversubscribed, and then get out. |

But im trying to explain to you that its not just an 'in thing', it is far more ingrained than that now to just be an 'in thing'. Its an eco system all by itself, myspace never got to that level... Nowhere near it. You realise its turning over more than a small country in profit dont you and its 7 years old now. its not like it was built a year ago. it may be ingrained in more mainstream activities, but it still fundamentally sits as a technology driven business. and the only constant in that line of business over the last 15 years is change, rapid improvement, and development.
