To many Facebook shareholders, yesterday was likely another dispiriting day. Shares only dropped further below its $38 IPO price, leaving many to wonder about its early valuation and the tact of Morgan Stanley's aggressive push, and many others wondering if they made an unwise investment.
Henry Blodget, the CEO and editor-in-chief of Business Insider, was on The Takeaway before Facebook's NASDAQ debut, and he returns to assess his speculations, and what this means for the company and its investors.

SHADY DEALINGS BY COMPANY OFFICIALS AND MAJOR BANKS, SPIN CONTROLLING, AND THE RESPECTED LOSING THAT RESPECT, THAT'S THE RESULT OF THE DUPLICITY AND THE DISILLUSIONMENT THAT SO MANY FEEL ABOUT BEING DUPED !! We live in a world where money may buy the presidency of the USA, where nations observe bestiality and mass killings of innocents, but are afraid that their trade relations might suffer if they intercede. What may yet save still greater calamities is the sophisticated technologies that enable people to reach out to others worldwide to alarm others of all sorts of misconduct. YAHOO, like its competitors, will always need to repair their image and to offer what the public requires.
