On a 3 month chart FB is down 10% from start to now.

That's hardly "epic".

And the NASDAQ composite is down 13% in the same time frame.




That's a pretty selective lookback. The big slide was 4 months ago. If you look at trailing 6 months, FB is down 40%, vs down 10% for S&P500 or 23% for NASDAQ.


-44% ytd lol

why write something in bad faith?


Tech as a whole is down 27% over that period, which means $FB underperformed but not by a whole lot.


QQQ is down 23% ytd so they underperformed the Nasdaq 100 by 2000 bps. that is objectively “a lot” especially for a mega cap.


Why assume bad faith?

You said "past few months" and so I quickly pulled up a 3 month history which is a dropdown option in the UI I was looking at. I replied with what I saw.


anyone who follows the stock market will not accuse me of being hyperbolic about FB’s stock plummeting in recent months, and yes 5 months is also “a few” lol…


10% is about what everyone in today's economy seems to be doing. it's the bigger slide from Apple blocking their tracking that should be more worrisome than a natural economic hiccup
