I mean if Facebook losing %0.01 (or whatever it was) of it's users is enough to drop it's share price by 40% I think that anything could pop this bubble at this point, people investing in these companies are expecting growth that isn't realistic imo All these companies have hit their saturation point and are just fighting over the same shrinking pie at this point. Just look at how many social media sites have implemented tik tok functionality. That alone to me screams "too much capital and not enough growth"

It didn't matter that they missed user estimates for 1 quarter. It mattered that their growth forecast went from close to 30% to 3% (over a medium term horizon). Your P/E drops precipitously when your future growth drops precipitously.

A report showing negligible effectiveness of online advertising via social media could be enough to shake the input if the market is shaky.

That is because facebook ‘sells’ stuff people can easily live without… its not the same for the other companies
