My own view is that this is the beginning of the end for the company.  The concept was a copy of a copy, and Facebook’s reputation as a tech innovator is absurdly over-rated.  Social media will become more niche-oriented in the future, and it will not take full generation before Facebook is no longer cool for the younger user.  Bullish stances can be taken on the stock, but as a relatively short-term trade (not as a portfolio investment).
