Snapchat
Sometime ago we had a thread about the guys of Snapchat when they didn't sell for 3 Billion usd to Facebook
Well look at this know . . . . http://lat.ms/1BABER3 Apparently they made a good decision to wait a little bit longer |

So Snapchat is now valued higher than Porsche, Harley-Davidson and Rolls Royce Corporations. It is also twice the market value of the Rolex brand.
Something just doesn't make sense here. |

Come on, seriously??
How can Snapchat be worth 15B?? Just because one company invests in it, doesn't mean it's correct valuation. |

Very much doubt someone would actually pay up 15B for it.

The market value of Rolex is $7.7 billion. It's a company with a history and a tangible product. Snapchat is code on a programmer's computer in a market where public whims change almost daily. (Just ask Netscape, MySpace, America Online and Palm.) It is unsustainable growth.
