Supply and demand is the answer, although probably not the one you are looking for!
The WSJ reported the options market has just opened for FB stocks. A lot of people seem to be very bearish about FB so a lot of short action could significantly impact the demand of FB stock.
I'm an amateur at this though, and would love someone to correct me if I'm completely off here :)
