They aren’t going to let someone else start a run on their bank before they get a chance to save some wealth...

The Form 4 shows they were sold today.

Not to worry though, his trust still owns more than 400 million shares. A trust, wonder what kind of tax sham this is.

“Freepers on Google back in 2004:”

And if I'd known then what I know now....

I still wouldn't have bought any except for a quick flip. No way will I EVER sit on one of these imaginary stocks.

They're not "selling short," they're just selling. It is common for IPO's to drift downward in price for the few weeks following. Also, we don't know how much of each person's stake is being sold here. These may be minor sales, percentage-wise.

Oh no. Obama will be calling a news conference tomorrow to describe the bailout program to protect all investors that are too stupid to live.

Selling short? Already?

Bwa haa haaaaa...

And just put 924 million dollars in his pocket.

But, you are right, Zuckerberg is laughing today.

The Market is on to Fads that produce no viable product, except some fun dialogue between others. Zzzz. I like facebook. It’s fun, but it sure ain’t Ford Motor Company or Edison. :>
