[투자 ] Was Facebook (FB) stock worth buying now?

in hive-101145 •  3 years ago 

In the long term, the company's stock still looks very good.

But now several global factors influence the share price at once:

  • On October 4, due to a global outage, Facebook shares fell 5% in one day. This factor is short-term: problems will be fixed, vulnerabilities will be eliminated. However, there is also a long-term impact. This glitch showed how easy it is for a huge tech company to lose its business to internet problems.

  • On October 4, Facebook filed a motion to reject the updated Federal Trade Commission (FTC) antitrust lawsuit aimed at dividing the company. The FTC filed a lawsuit last year, but the judge dismissed it. Since then, the commission has prepared an updated version for the trial. If Facebook is recognized as a monopoly, then it is threatened with separation. The consequences of this and how it will be implemented are not yet clear, but nothing good can be expected from this.

  • General decline in the US market and technology sector. Facebook (FB) shares began to fall back on September 10 and have already lost 14% from the top. If the US market continues to fall, then Facebook (FB) will be one of the main candidates for cuts.

So Facebook (FB) has a lot of problems at the moment. But this is how the stock market works: when companies are doing well, their shares are expensive; and when companies have problems, their shares fall in price, but no one wants to buy them anymore.

Therefore, if you are determined for the long-term growth of the company, then you can gradually recruit shares in your portfolio.
