    I've never used Snapchat and never will. Oops, there goes another $1B of worthless valuation. Darn. I wish I had that kind of influence over social media shares. I could make a fortune shorting stocks everywhere! :laugh:

    You just confessed you are sharing the same impressive physical attributes as Kyle Jenner :p Pretty disturbing.

      Perceived value, really. This is why if I were ever to build an app that becomes hugely successful, I'm cashing out as soon as I can. :laugh:

      :thumbsup: With not all stocks of the same company having the same value, even if they are presented that way; those who are sold first will get more of the perceived value :)

        Kylie Jenner 'sooo over' Snapchat - and shares tumble - BBC News[^] Do-Nothing celebrity tweets negatively about a company, and 1.3 BEEELION is wiped off the value of that company. This is an indictment both of celebrity culture and of the underlying uselessness of these tech giants and their crapplications.

            I was just going to ask that same question. I was also gonna ask, WTF is snap chat???:confused::confused:

            If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.

              Depends on how much Snapchat stock you or your 401K own.

              If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

                  Stock value is such a bogas thing. the 1.3 loss is of its potential dollar value. It is not worth nothing until sold. As soon as you have converted your dollars to stocks, you have 0 dollars and only the potential of the stocks. Hell you can be frozen out of selling stocks for a year. So for a year you have changed 100 dollars into 0 dollars, with the hope that in 1 year time the potential sell value of the stock is higher then when you traded. Hell most paper notes are worthless, they just say the bank will honor the 10. Those banks in Italy using parmasan cheess as collatoral have the right idea. You go bust, we still have a good chance of selling the cheess. but Stock, or even building value, nah.

                      Sure. Companies that provide a necessary product definitely have an actual value.

                        All value is "perceived" value.
