he said it has potential, meaning they will figure out how to milk it. Via mobile ads ect.
How many times have we heard potential not translate into reality.
Even if they do, the growth models have to be so off the charts to justify their current valuation

Honestly, I believe it will settle at some point back to $20, and I am looking for an entry point to short it at

I too believe it'll go down, to the low $20s at least, but I don't have the balls to short it.

Nu, are you selling? I'd at least put in an order to sell if it goes to/below $25.
