Ya'll need to chill out and look at a price chart of TWTR over time. This is very common run-of-the-mill volatility.

- nkrumm 11y agoWell, chilling is perhaps still the right thing to do, but the daily view does tell a different story: http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=TWTR&p=D&b=5&g=0&id=p45640186036 http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=TWTR&p=D&b=5&g=0&id=p456401...
- minimax 11y agoAnother way to look at it is that Twitter's first trade on the NYSE in November 2013 was at $45.10, and today, almost a year and a half later, it closed at around $42. That is not a whole lot of return for what is supposed to be a growth stock. It's also not a particularly great story to tell prospective employees if you're trying to attract them with stock-based compensation.
- sukilot 11y agoPublic companies give RSUs to employees. Which don't need a grown story.
- nandemo 11y agoIf the share price isn't going up, one would rather get paid in cash.
- marssaxman 11y agoOne would generally always rather get paid in cash, which can be used to invest in a diverse portfolio of valuable investments.
- what_ever 11y agoI got options at my current employer even when they were publicly listed when I got the offer.
- sels 11y agoIs there an alternative for twitter?
- smackfu 11y agoYes, TWTR does seem to move 10% or more on any news, but that isn't "very common" in my opinion.
