Facebook expansion ok'd by Menlo Park City Council

Fb will pay $14.6M over 15 years to increase capacity from 3,600 to 6,600 people on the former Sun Microsystems site.

On the first Day of Options.

On a moderate day, 78.5M shares were traded.
The market opened at $31.48 per share, closed at $28.84

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=FB+Historical+Prices

The highest volume of options (13,300) had a strike price of $30.
Less than half that amount (6,028) had a strike price of $29.
The low strike price of $13 had a volume of 45.
The high strike price of $44 had a volume of 3,365.

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=FB+Options

Given the closing price, it appears the confidence outweighs
the negative outlook.

Who actually said "Privacy is dead"?

Thanks to Cindy for clearing this up for me.

This statement has been attributed to Mr. Zuckerberg, but that is not correct. I have reported as such also. Google seems to think it is this security clown named Steven Rambam (enjoy your 15-minutes buddy). And if you glaze over what one of the leading producers of herring says, you might think so.

So what is the actual statement?, who said it? Well, when this person said it, it cause a real kerfuffle. Ironically, the company this person represented was part of the Online Privacy Alliance.

He said
that consumer privacy issues are a "red herring." "You have zero privacy anyway," - "Get over it."

The person at the time was the CEO of Sun Mircosystems, Scott McNealy.

Here is ~~the 1999 confirmation story~~. ~~(MOVED HERE)~~ (See below)

Soft Ground after IPO

There is no way for me to ignore soft ground, or find a decent news stories on this. As we all know by now, Facebook set the price at $38, it opened at $42, fell multiple times to around $38.00, then closed up $0.23 (twenty-three cents) (0.6 percent higher) on the first day of trading. During trading it was reported that the Underwriter (Morgan Stanley) had to repeatedly defend the opening price by buying any stocks offered that would lower the price below the IPO price. The number of share MS had to buy can cannot be found, but I have heard rumors that they purchased 11m of 16m shares. Again, the answer cannot be found. However, the WSJ blog reports some of the details on this standard practice.

The WSJ Blog also reports the total share traded for the day 421.2 million - reportedly a record number of trades on an opening day for this type of stock.

At 10am Pacific time the stock price continues to fall below the IPO price. Currently trading around $34.15, down $4.18. It is worth noting that the day before the IPO FB was trading around $36 per share in private markets.

UPDATE (2:05pm Pacific Time): FB closes down $4.20 at $34.03 for the day (4pm EDT).
FB is traded on the NASDAQ
