I say it's not going to be around 2 years from now.

Just a friendly reminder reinforcing what we already knew; GRPN is hitting fresh lows yet again AH on earnings release.

Yet somehow this turds market cap is still a few billion.

Just in case anyone wants a direct link again for groupon.  Tomorrow will be brutal for them.   Fridays can be a bad day to get beat up after an earnings report. 

And in other news, Facebook is back to $20 again.   Sometimes turds can just float a long time before they break up. I don't think the big speculators are done playing with Facebook's numbers yet.  There still is money to be fleeced from the fools who bought in initially.  Folks are still buying into the short-lived rallies. Hope springs eternal.   

When is the last time you build a company with over 11,000 employees from scratch?

Oh, wait. You never have.

Ive never attempted to do this duppie.  However, I have successfully shorted the shit out of obvious pseudo ponzi schemes and have been happily smug with the results.

Have you built a company with 11k employees from scratch?? Word.

I've never been to the moon, but I"m pretty sure it's right there, orbiting the earth. 

That's it!

 

Einhorn is Finkle! Finkle is Einhorn! Duppie is....Andrew Mason?

Mason runs you off the road, laughing in his sick BMW SUV while his 11,000 employees cry over their worthless stock options and crappy resume's.

Ah yes! A variation on the penny-stock troll. I thought they became extinct after the Internet crash of the early 2000's?

Please continue with whatever it is you're doing....

Since when was shorting an 8 dollar "stock" a penny stock?  Ive obviously been on this band wagon for months now.

 

Duppers do you work for the almighty spammer known as groopon or own shares?  If so, I'd commit suicide or take NYC's advice to heart and delete that shit from your resume ASAP brau.

 

Edit for clarity: this stock *was* once upon a time at 8 dollars/share. Closing in fast tonight on the 2 handle.

Great call on the brutal friday James. I didnt expect the drop to be as dramatic as it is.

 

@duppie - the investment advice was free, this time.

Should be an ugly lunch-hour drop too.   

Not sure it will stabilize, recover, or continue to drop after that.    I think it'll finish out the day around $2.50 and recover a bit next week.  But it may be a long time before it breaks $5 again.
