facebook shares @ $27

but here's an opposing argument that sez you shouldn't worry about it:

I don’t know what Facebook is worth today, and I don’t care. Because that type of short-term thinking has nothing to do with what it takes to build a great company. To me, Facebook’s value can be measured in far different ways — how well it’s serving its members, how its treating and compensating its employees, its social impact on society as a whole and, of course, how well it’s positioning itself for the future.


However, he's not mentioning management. Management! That's WHO builds a great company:

See, that, that is what makes one worry.
