In two days Twitter is up over 15%. ( Dec 23 and Dec 24 2013)

Is it too late to buy Twitter now? You think it can go higher? CNBC said TWTR is worth around $35 few weeks ago. It's close to $70 now.

they got a bump now that they can finally monitize but they should have been doing that prior to going public

it's up another 5% today.... I am little nervous to buy this. I sure don't want to be the last guy to get in on this.

I bought Twitter on IPO day, I knew they would do well but wasn't expecting it to be this quick. I think it'll run up more, they've learn from FB's mistakes.

I should have jumped on Twitter, along with Facebook and Yelp

I find it funny that most posts here can fit into twitter's 140 character limit.

I think its too late. They may go up but that would be long term

Twitter Now Has A Larger Market Capitalization Than 80% Of All S&P 500 Companies | Zero Hedge

Twitter has a market cap greater than 80% of all other companies in the S&P 500. I might add they have huge losses (aka negative earnings). If you truly believe an advertising company can "grow into" a 40 billion market cap stock bless your heart.

There are 554,750,000 registered twitter users which equates to 72 dollars of market cap per user. How are they going to make money? All they have is advertising space on the tweet screen. Are people going to put up with advertising while they tweet their 140 character message?

You have to believe Twitter is worth more than Johnson Controls. It is worth more than Target. It is worth more than Tyson foods. Good luck with that.

The time to buy is past. Do you really think the stock will be worth 80 billion dollars with negative earnings?

You definitely wouldn't want to short TWTR now. If I were forced to buy or short, I would buy because it is safer to go with the trend that predict its end. TWTR is way over-valued, so if it goes up another $20, nothing changed, so people need to get this idea out of their head that an over-valued stock is a good short. It's not, unless it starts crashing. Stick with the trends!
