This is a stock that is being played, not invested in.
They sell coupons. Everyone has heard of Groupon. Where can they possibly go from there? The types of businesses that can do a Groupon are limited. It's not like my local Ford dealer is going to have a Groupon on Focuses. Surprise, surprise, here's my local Groupon today: Relaxation & Ultimate Bodywork (RUB) – Ann Arbor How many massages do you need? This might say something interesting about the massage industry, however. This stock will be played as it goes up, and down, and down. The investors got theirs, and now the market makers have a new toy to play with for a while. Fuck, I'm going to start seeing Google Offers in my G+, aren't I?
