We Need Some NEWS Now ................
Something Has To Be Going On Behind The Sceen !!!!!!

Are The MM'S Covering Their SHORTS ???
Anyone !
Guys! This Is HUGE...................
Summary
Mark Pincus has converted his founder super-voting stocks to ordinary stocks. His voting power is now reduced from 70% to 10%.
It is a generous gesture from Mr. Pincus. By giving up his super-voting/veto privileges, Zynga’s long-term strategy is now more flexible.
Pincus’ sacrifice means Zynga is now open to takeover bids. Zynga is an attractive M&A target. It is profitable and has no debt with $740 million in cash.
I hope Zynga will consider porting some of its Android/iOS games to Facebook’s Instant Games platform. Facebook has enabled in-app purchases on its Instant Games Platform.
Guys !!! Is This Still The Case ???
Zynga
If you're looking for a cheap stock to buy with big upside potential, check out video game developer Zynga (ZNGA - Get Report) . The company is behind such classics as FarmVille and Zynga Poker and is currently trading at just $3.72.
Cowen & Co analyst Doug Creutz sees Zynga as a compelling investing opportunity right now. He called Zynga a 'best idea' for 2018 with an attractive valuation. He notes the company's steady progress towards its EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) margin target and the strong mobile gaming market growth. Furthermore, Creutz pinpoints the unveiling and launch of the company's pipeline in 2H18 as an upcoming catalyst for prices.
A 'Strong Buy' stock, Zynga boasts 4 recent buy ratings vs 1 sell rating in the last three months. From the current share price, analysts (on average) anticipate the stock rising 23% to hit $4.57.

BARRON'S Outlook On Ford's Future.............5/28/1017......
As its new chief executive steers Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) into the world of autonomous vehicles, the beaten down stock should race higher, according to the latest Barron's cover story. CEO Jim Hackett seems to be an inspired choice to rev up the 104-year-old company's self-driving car efforts.
"Ford Races Toward an Exciting Future" by Jack Hough suggests that as Hackett lays out his case to Wall Street in the months ahead, investors should look for Ford shares to recover from a recent retreat. Including the dividends, shareholders could make 30 percent in the next year. The article even goes so far as to say that Ford stock has an excellent chance of outperforming Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) over the next five years.
Motley Fool On Ford...........
Ford: A new driver
It hasn't been a great 12 months for Ford. The big automaker's stock is down by a double-digit percentage. Ford recently announced plans to cut around 1,400 jobs this year. And the company replaced its CEO. That makes for plenty of turmoil, but it also gives investors a reason to take a hard look at the stock.
New CEO Jim Hackett isn't inheriting as big of a mess as some of the headlines might indicate. Ford posted stellar sales and earnings in 2015 and really good numbers last year. The company's first-quarter performance was dismal, but one quarter doesn't mean a whole lot in the big scheme of things.
While it's too early to know how Hackett will do at the helm, I think his hiring gives investors a reason to buy. Hackett did a great job turning things around at SteelCase. He's also very familiar with Ford's business, serving on the board of directors since 2013.
Ford's dividend continues to look quite appealing. Its yield stands at 5.52%. The company is currently using less than 64% of earnings to fund the dividend program. With this solid dividend and a new, capable CEO in the driver's seat, Ford looks like a buy in my view.

I believe the "wow" emoji would be apropos
Sean Williams (Facebook Inc.): It's incredible to be talking about a company with a $354 billion valuation as a growth stock, but there's seemingly nothing standing between Facebook and what's likely a $1 trillion-plus valuation over the long run.
All an investor needs to do is look at the active user statistics surrounding Facebook to get a feel for just how dominant it is. According to Facebook's fourth-quarter results, it ended 2016 with 1.86 billion monthly active users (MAUs), representing 17% year-over-year growth, with 94% of these users accessing Facebook via theif mobile device. In two years' time, Facebook added 470 million MAUs.
Comparatively, no other social-media networks are even close -- that Facebook doesn't own, that is. Facebook-owned WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram, boast about 1.2 billion, 1 billion, and 700 million active users, placing them in second, third, and seventh behind Facebook in terms of active users. In other words, Facebook lays claim to four of the top seven social-media networks in the world.
Facebook has also barely touched the tip of the iceberg in terms of monetizing these platforms. The vast majority of its revenue comes from ads on Facebook. It's only begun advertising on Instagram within the past couple of years, and it's not even cracked the surface on generating revenue from Messenger or WhatsApp yet. There are a seemingly endless number of revenue channels that Facebook has yet to tap.
The international market is another stomping ground for long-term growth. For instance, even though the U.S., Canada, and Europe combined for 580 million MAUs in the fourth quarter, its rest-of-world MAUs totaled 606 million. Yet the average revenue per user of rest-of-world MAUs is only $1.39 as of Q4 2016, compared with more than $19 per user in the U.S. and Canada. Foreign markets offer a potentially multi-decade growth opportunity for Facebook.
Considering that Facebook's PEG ratio is just a hair above 1.1 (which is still exceptionally cheap), I'm inclined to believe that this rapid growth stock is one you'll want to consider socking away for years, or decades, to come.
Should Facebook be on your buy list? It's on ours...

"F" Needs Some Heat.............
Ford Motor Co. (F) shareholders put heat on Chief Executive Mark Fields and Chairman Bill Ford during the company's annual shareholders meeting Thursday morning, pressing the executives to explain why the stock price has lost more than one-third of its value during Mr. Fields' tenure.
The 114-year-old auto maker, like its Detroit rival General Motors Co., has booked substantial profits during a seven-year hot streak for U.S. car sales and strong appetite for lucrative trucks, but shares in domestic auto companies have been battered. Ford and GM have long been subject to the industry's boom-and-bust cycle, and have struggled to sell investors on a strategy to escape that trend.
Tesla Inc., the Palo Alto, Calif., electric-car maker run by billionaire Elon Musk, surpassed Ford and GM's market capitalization earlier this year, underscoring Wall Street's concerns about Detroit's ability to outgun Silicon Valley in developing must-have electric cars or autonomous driving capabilities. Tesla sells a fraction of what Ford or GM delivers, yet has consistently won favor among investors impressed by the company's growth prospects.
Mr. Fields faced heightened scrutiny from the company's board this week, as directors scheduled an additional day of meetings pressing the executive for clarity on strategy. Mr. Ford, great grandson of Henry Ford, also faced considerable criticism concerning the stock price during his tenure as chief executive early last decade.
Ford investors, submitting questions ahead of time for the virtual meeting, described the share price as "pathetic" and wanted to know what company executives are doing to increase value. Ford's earnings have resulted in hefty bonuses to its top executives, including Mr. Fields and some shareholders feel left behind.
One shareholder, who wasn't named, asked why Ford isn't using its cash for additional share buybacks. GM has been repurchasing billions of dollars of shares, and Ford has employed similar tactics in recent years.

Could Be Why Someone Has Been Buying In After Hrs. The Last Few Days!
Apple recently gained clearance to test autonomous cars on California's roads, Christian Renaud, Research Director for the Internet of Things at 451 Research LLC, noted in an email. Advanced driver assistance systems or autonomous vehicle technology could be on Apple's shopping list, whether the company partners with a car maker or develops a vehicle on its own.
"Either way, that leads to M&A in that segment," Renaud wrote.
Civil Maps, which develops maps to guide autonomous cars, could interest Apple, Renaud said. The company has backing from Motus Ventures, Ford Motor (F) and Yahoo (YHOO) co-founder Jerry Yang's AME Cloud Ventures.
Video telematics and safety technology company Lytx could also appeal to Apple. Private equity firm GTCR bought Lytx for more than $500 million in 2016.
Tesla Could Lose the Love; Ford, GM Might Gain It -- Barrons.com
BY Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
— 1:48 AM ET 05/06/2017
The long-awaited auto slowdown appears to be here. Perversely, that could be good news for shares of Ford Motor (F) and General Motors (GM). Both car makers reported April U.S. sales results last week that were below expectations, and their shares each slipped 3%. Longer term, as these revamped companies demonstrate an ability to remain profitable even through an industry slump, they are apt to earn a higher valuation from investors.
The seemingly fuzzy math relates to Wall Street's assessment of highly cyclical companies. General Motors (GM) sold a record 10 million cars worldwide last year, and Ford (F) had its best results in 11 years, with 6.7 million cars sold. But selling lots of vehicles -- and posting peak earnings -- does little to excite the Street, which tends to value auto companies and other cyclical outfits on trough earnings.
Even as the impressive numbers rolled in, Ford's and GM's shares languished. Ford, at $11.14 a share, fetches only seven times this year's estimated earnings, while GM, at $33.77, trades for an even more measly 5.5 times projected profit. Both stocks are among the cheapest on a price/earnings basis in the Standard & Poor's 500 index. With U.S. car sales slipping -- April marked the fourth consecutive monthly decline -- both companies no longer have a tailwind.
Investors are trading Ford and GM shares based on what they imagine will happen when vehicle sales fade after a multiyear increase. In 2008, things got ugly for both auto makers; operating losses were a combined $8.7 billion that year, as the financial crisis raged. In June 2009, GM sought bankruptcy protection.
The companies have slashed costs since, and built sustainable businesses. GM earned about $6 a share, and Ford, $2 a share, in their latest peak years. In the next recession, those numbers could be halved, but investors' confidence in the durability of the auto business under all market conditions could increase.
Deere (DE), which has proved its strength in all seasons and recently reported an upturn in its business, shows what such confidence can do for a stock. After a long slump in its markets, it trades for 24 times this year's estimated earnings per share, which could mark a cyclical bottom for the company.
If GM and Ford could command a multiple of 15 times trough earnings, GM would be worth $45 a share, and Ford, $15. That implies a 35% gain for each stock from current levels.
