IMO, no, I do not think TWTR is a good INVESTMENT because TWTR hasn't really figure out how to make money yet.
But, I think it is good for a TRADE only.  Get in during momentum UP and momentum DOWN.

Lots of speculation that it is going to be next FB but until TWTR can come up with a good plan like FB, I will not hold it.

I'll take a look at BALT and DRYS later.  I know DRYS been really bad for many years.. is it making a come back?

I'm holding my stop for AAPL at 549 and covering for TWTR short @ 59 tonight.

If I am Zuckerberg, I not sure I would want to buy if FB already has something similar. But, he maybe seeing something that we mortals could not.

$19bln is a lot of premium to pay.. but luckily majority of them are just stocks exchanges.

If things didn't pan out (regulatory wise - they still have to convince DOJ this isn't a monopoly tactic), WhatApps still get a $1bln in cash. Still a win-win deal for Whatapps.

maybe its zuckerberg young age who seeks market awareness and greater transparency at the start. and hopefully there is tech and marketing synergy?  a case of market penetration follows by market development?
i think so only la
