"...save for the privileged few who got to buy into LinkedIn at the $45 IPO price"

What's that saying about not being able to spot the sucker at the poker table?


Headline is not true.

Everyone who bought LinkedIn stock at $90 and sold it at $115 made a fortune.

Everyone who bought LinkedIn to hold long-term doesn't care about day-to-day price fluctuationns.

Why is DHH so obsessed with fluctuations in LinkedIn's stock price? Doesn't he have a business of his own to run?
