I like how there is virtually an unlimited number of ways to access content on Twitter. It's developers made a really good job designing the whole thing for their users. You use Keywords. Like "Donald Trump" who is usually trending every day, so you just go to that site. Or any hashtag of your choosing. A friend of mine, who kind of showed me the ropes when I first started getting active on Twitter once told me: It [what you see] all depends where you park yourself. That's the beauty of it. Add in the Block Feature, and you can literally create your own universe on Twitter. Without the Block Feature, I wouldn't even bother using Twitter. If I worked there, and they asked me to define the Block Feature, I would have created the exact same thing they did. It's fabulous. As you might have noticed, I can attract a lot of "ankle-biters". On an open blog, there's not much you can do but argue, and get messages deleted for arguing too much.
As for the stock - turnarounds take time and future positive results will attract more investors - no debate on either point. Some investors are more patient than others, but most will be less patient with Jack since he's not a newcomer Jack's return has not fueled much excitement with investors so far and that concerns everyone. Investors are looking for signs of where this is headed and where it will likely end up. The share price speaks for itself so far ... hopefully, that will change soon. The first 90 days of any turnaround are crucial.
Since Jack Dorsey was appointed as permanent CEO, the NASDAQ increased 8.1% and TWTR declined 11.1%. Jack has failed to gain the confidence of new investors since being appointed. The Executive Chairman has been silent. TWTR needs to develop a clear turnaround plan, communicate that plan to all stakeholders and implement it impeccably. The measures implemented since Oct 1st appear to be hit and miss from an investor's standpoint. From the outside, there appears to be a clear lack of any sense of urgency.
