Three Fears for Facebook as IPO Approaches
Keywords:
The problems with the the Facebook IPO price include the extremely high valuation of 42 times current earnings, says Winkler, especially considering the learning curve for making advertising effective on a social network platform. This suggests large volatility in the share price before settling down. The fact that Goldman Sachs, Accel and other so--called "smart money" is selling about half of their holdings also is cause for concern.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
