Q: Re the question on why Facebook shares dropped, here is the probable answer

Facebook (FB) shares dove Monday as Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg revealed plans late Friday to nix the creation of a new class of shares and to also sell a big chunk of stock

As part of that plan, a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission late Friday said that Zuckerberg anticipates selling 35 million to 75 million shares of Facebook stock over approximately 18 months "in order to fund the philanthropic initiatives of Mr. Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, in education, science and advocacy."

Q: I was surprised at the extent to which Facebook dropped yesterday on no company-specific news. I don't recall a worse day in a long time. I know the Nasdaq took a hit but Facebook was harder hit than anyone other than the stocks which had prices in the stratosphere. It is generally not that volatile a stock. Certainly it's less volatile than Amazon or even Alphabet, and has a lower PEG ratio than either. Yet they fared far better yesterday. Alphabet was down .81% while Facebook dropped 4.5%. Is there something else at work I'm not seeing? Perhaps a huge block of trades from someone exiting the position? I do want to have tech exposure but not if a stock is going to be one everyone will hit the sell trigger on for the slightest reason.

Q: NWL has declined sharply in recent weeks due to (1) Hurricane Harvey on its U.S. manufactured resin businesses, and (2) bankruptcy proceeding of Toys R Us, which NWL is one of their top suppliers. NWL has issued revised 2017 guidance due to the impact of Harvey but, in my opinion, it's not material. Is the selloff overblown? Is it a good entry point now, or is it catching a falling knife? Welcome your thoughts. Thank you.

Q: Good Day 5I. I`m glad I didn't sell this stock when it dropped down to 10.00 1 month ago. I Know there has been some good news with new contracts and the possible sale of its technology division but does this explain the surge in the past month of over 50%? Are Options Traders Betting on a Big Move in Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI) Stock?
Thx/Rob

Q: In resubmitting my question because my browser went cold and not sure my submission went through.

Would you take up a position on equifax today? Smell position, 1.5 % or so? Do you see any merits to this? I'm thinking there could possibly be a sharp partial recovery. Please advise.
