    In addition, FB is going to be valued at or higher than McDonalds. MCD valued at 96billion BUT generates 26billion in revenue.

    FB had just over 1billion in the first quarter of 2012.

    I read it is also priced significantly higher than GOOG at it's IPO.  (I didn't check the nums on this)

    Dan Fitzpatrick has an interesting IPO strategy..

    Wait till it sells off (usually they fall below IPO price) and then buy when it recovers and

    If you had a chance to get an allocation at the FB IPO price, would you take it and flip it at the open? In other words, do you expect a pop the 1st day?

    It also has a lot more of your data than GOOG
