The Exchange welcomes Facebook with caution

A few days ago there was the expected IPO Facebook , and the first days of the company of Mark Zuckerberg in the stock market have been a bit gray, with little gloss. Already warned analysts prior to departure on the stock exchange, ensuring that the stock price was excessive and that stakeholders should wait at least six months to see how it behaves in the market Facebook Bag .

During the first hours of Facebook as a share of stock, the day was characterized by technical problems, where officials were trying to market operator overcome technical difficulties related to the huge volume of transactions . This problem left investors for more than two hours without knowing if your purchase or sale orders were executed.

Facebook closed its debut with only a 0.6% rise in the price initial actions, when shareholders and managers in the company expected, at least, that there be a rise of 10%. The debut of the action was a weak market and traders said the weaker performance than expected on the first day reflects the aggressive increase in the size of the offer made by the firm, with some actions a pretty inflation . Also, the major circulating analysts doubt the continued concerns about the potential for Facebook to generate long term income. And is that the output in a Social Network Exchange is unheard of in history, and WIN nobody knows what in store for Facebook this risky move.

For months we talk about the arrival of Facebook to the stock market and this move will eventually become a reality. From today -18 May, the most popular social network in the world operate on NASDAQ using the command “FB”, as confirmed in an official press release.

The initial public offering of 421,233,615 shares will be Facebook, which will sell for $ 38 each. This move will allow the stock company raise 16 billion dollars and reach a valuation of approximately $ 104 billion. It’s clearly a great day for Menlo Park.

Now that Facebook is a public company, the fortunes of their creators will rise exponentially. Mark Zuckerberg reportedly become the second richest man in America, with 40 billion dollars. The reward for Eduardo Saverin, meanwhile, will be nearly 4 billion.

estimates also suggest that the advent of Facebook to create the bag over a thousand new millionaires. But not everything here has to do with the fortunes of the most graceful. The social network is about to enter a new field that lie so many responsibilities.

Any decision made by corporate executives directly impact the stock price , like what happens in the world economy. So far Facebook has shown a very strong company but this will be the real test.

Despite all the attention generated by the arrival of Facebook to the stock market, economists say the stock price is excessive and that stakeholders should wait at least six months. However, the furor over the insurance company will keep the focus of attention beyond their initial journey operating on NASDAQ.

And the expectation is high for several reasons, but I’ll take the statements of Joshua Gans, professor at the business school at the University of Toronto published by Mashable :

dir=”ltr”> All uncertainties surrounding Facebook will not be resolved this year. Within a decade just know if you have a permanent place in the economy, such as Microsoft. There is a scenario in which Facebook clearly becomes the next Google or Apple, but there is one in which ends as Yahoo!

What do you think that lie ahead for Facebook

As did the London Stock Exchange in 2009, the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (Johannesburg Stock Exchange, JSE), also has decided to migrate from its current TradElect system, based on Microsoft.Net and SQL Server 2000, Exchange Millennium based on Linux , which offers MilleniumIT.

All this in order to avoid international connectivity issues and preparing to offer greater service availability for their customers as expected in the coming years an increase of trading on the JSE currently Bag larger values of the African continent.

Of course, the positive experience of the London Stock Exchange was an important factor taken into account in the decision, remember that the London Stock Exchange achieved a speed record in communications to get a latency of 126 microseconds, while the rest of the bags that operate with Linux is not too far from those numbers.

So, Linux again shows off his power, high performance systems that require high availability. In this case it is expected that this new Linux-based implementation provides a transaction speed up to 400 times faster that the current platform. Without doubt, a success story.
