Well /g/, is this going to be a bust or the biggest thing since Google? Shares start at $14 to $16, will you be investing? Or is this just a pathetic attempt by SNAP Inc.?
Personally, I think there's potential.
Luke Jackson
I think it's got potential, but the problem is that a lot of people are going to buy into the IPO not knowing the many go-to-market issues it has then then it'll pop. Might buy it during the rebound since it would be a decent short-format marketing platform.
Anthony Allen
It's going up to 100$ in no time.
Bentley Perez
Wait a couple months to buy
Liam Young
>/g/ nice try op, atleast try more with reposting
Thomas Taylor
It will probably create a big bubble that will eventually pop.
Charles Nelson
I agree with the other user that it has potential. Real potential.
Eli Johnson
Good informative article. My guess is their stock won't be worth much.
Ryder Williams
I say go for it
Gavin Morales
Hard to say it's real potential but I think $22.5 BILLION is far too high
Luke Robinson
i'd say it will cause the tech bubble to pop
Joshua Gutierrez

Christopher Barnes
Is that $22.5 billion for the entire company, or just for the IPO? Because that's really fucking high for just the stock offering. Facebook only offered like $18b worth of stock.
Also, is there any official memorandum yet? I know they've been negative for years, but perhaps the bankers have good reasons backing their growth expectations. No bank wants to flop an IPO.
Tyler Powell
They released info about their IPO, and it wasn't too good. They say that it is possible they will never achieve/maintain profitability, so the value of the stock is gonna be hype and not real value.You can make money off the stock for sure in the short term if you play your cards right but it's a pretty fucked company. Look at Twitter, they have the same issue.
Julian Kelly
I think it could work, but it demands a completely new kind of short-form advertising. I mean I know I won't end up buying this kool-aid in the end, but still.
Lincoln Ross
Have they turned a profit? Anyhow, just like any other Tech Ico, it's gonna go down for the first year, and then and only if they turn a profitable year it's gonna do 10x.
Adam Ward
That one was posted after this one
Nathaniel Davis
the money to be made on snapchat won't be ads but from data mining and reselling.
Carter Torres
but who would be interested in so much child pornography?
Camden Nelson
Hot garbage.

It might go up. Unless it goes down. But it's also possible that it stays about the same.
Oliver Gonzalez
>potential they lost $500 million last year even if their product is popular it won't mean a damn thing if they can't turn it into a sustainable business model it will probably pop after the IPO and either sink entirely or more likely they'll find a way to grow their margins and make a profit, for their own sake i hope they do
William Ortiz
People said Facebook was a bust now look at that.
I think the valuation is a little high, but I still consider Snapchat a good buy.
Like fucking everyone has been saying, let the hype die down for a bit, then buy in the dip.
Jackson Davis
I think that ignoring an attempt to purchase at least 5 shares is just infantile investing. If you're able to get in at $14 and then when everyone goes bananas sell off at $70-100 in a moon ipo. You have no balls unless you actually try to get in and ride the IPO coaster. When else will you be able to actually make some serious money? A company worth an est. 22B is about to come into the scene and you aren't going to get a piece of the pie? Cmon biz.
Eli Murphy
>People say Facebook was a dud now look at it
Wow thanks for your clearly thought out and well reasoned speculation there. Good work. You're sure to make a ton of money investing with this kind of strategy.
Eli Hill
Did anything he say upset you?
Luke Sullivan
