  All the SpaceX/Elon fanboys are upset that I said SpaceX is a wildly overvalued IPO and that at some point the share price will crater... and that is when you buy. But I hear all kinds of jibber-jabber about what SpaceX does and is and whatever. It's all the same words, just in a different order that defined the last 30 years of tech investing... and I've been around for all of it as a financial writer. So, here's a list of every IPO that was the biggest/most relevant of its time and what came of it: Netscape (1995): The company that lit the dot-com fuse. briefly dominated the internet browser market before Microsoft crushed it by giving away a competing product for free. limped into AOL's arms at a fraction of its peak value. Yahoo (1996): A $13 IPO that became a $110 billion fever dream at the peak of the bubble, then collapsed 93% to $8, spent a decade mismanaging itself into irrelevance, turned down a $44/share Microsoft buyout offer when it was already dying, and was finally sold to Verizon for parts in 2017. Amazon (1997): Went public at $18, rode the bubble to $113, crashed 94% to $6, then methodically became the most dominant retail and cloud computing empire in history. theglobe dot com (1998): Exploded 600% on its first trading day on pure mania with no real business model, and was bankrupt and forgotten within three years. VA Linux (1999): Holds the all-time record for the largest single-day IPO pop — up 700% — on just $17.8 million in annual revenue, and spent the next 15 years slowly selling itself off for scraps at a 90%+ discount to its opening-day price. Google (2004): The rare IPO that was actually priced like a real business, debuted into post-bubble investor skepticism, and rewarded anyone who held it with a 7,500%+ return over 20 years. Facebook/Meta (2012): Priced at $104 billion with a broken mobile strategy, immediately cratered 54% in under four months to $17 as investors fled, then finally cracked the mobile monetization code and turned a humiliating IPO into a 1,300%+ return for anyone who didn't panic. Snap (2017): Sold non-voting shares in a money-losing company with decelerating growth at 25x revenue, popped on day one, collapsed 75% within two years, and now nearly a decade later an IPO investor has still lost more than half their money. Uber (2019): Private market fantasies priced this one at $120 billion, the public market immediately said "no" and sent it below its $45 IPO price on day one, the stock bled another 25% in four months, and it took years of grinding toward actual profitability before the stock finally vindicated long-suffering holders. Alibaba (2014): Legit one of the greatest businesses in the world at IPO, rode to $300, then the Chinese government decided Jack Ma needed to be humbled, and a decade after its record-breaking debut the stock still trades below its first-day opening price. I am NOT saying that SpaceX is a bad company. I am saying SpaceX IPO is stupidly valued by an excessively greedy Wall Street trying to extract as much wealth as possible in this latest tech hype period. SpaceX will go on to great things one day ... but at 90x sales, the shares are destined for a deep, deep enema-like cleansing at some point. Extremely rich valuations never last. The history above tells you the trajectory.

  @AOL It is a terrible lyric to put on a school book. If she didn't do it or approve it the woman is innocent until proven guilty. Perhaps the investigation should be on how it got there and who put it there in her name. I hope her lawyer is worth his salt.

  @Aubrey_Senyolo @DiscussingFilm Every giant corporation that has purchased WB since AOL has seen it become a huge pain for their businesses. Will Skydance be taken down too?

  @AntiLeftMemes 19, never had an AOL address. I had my own ISP in 1992, with my own email address.

  @sprosay10 @Supamusk123 Dear Elon, I have always been someone who respected you and never gave two shits how smart you were or what you did. There are times that we have disagreed but I never to decided the problem was you just because you bought a website that never was good as Myspace or AOL. If anything? Thank you for taking **** out of my data drop from my timeline in 2021. You showed me that I must have scared them so much that I knew whether or not a lens flare made anyone unhuman. Which is stupid. Science Exists.

  @DowdEdward Lots of skepticism on your feed. Think the skeptics have looked at Microsoft with products worse than they were 10 years ago. Wall Street hype in search of fees exists, remember Merrill Lynch pushing AOL? Too bad government "investment" doesn't get the same scrutiny.

  @OldSchool88069 I never understood the Vinny Ru hate. He didn't kill wcw, the AOL tine warner merger did.

  @mysteriouskat I thankfully learned about this phenomenon early. Going back to AOL instant messenger days. I remember talking to friends via chat just felt off and I perceived them differently. I didn't like it. One of the reasons I never joined Facebook once it took off to "find friends"
