Want Facebook Shares? HKs 8 Securities Offers $200 Of Them If You Join Its Trading Platform
With Facebook announcing its ballsy stock price of $38 yesterday and all eyes now on what will happen with the social network when it finally goes public today, a new trading platform in Hong Kong, 8 Securities, is seizing the moment to boost its own profile by offering customers US$200 of Facebook shares if they sign up to trade on 8 Securities' trading platform in the next month.The offer indirectly serves a couple of other purposes, too: it gives non-U.S. citizens a relatively easy crack at a bit of stock in the most valuable tech IPO ever, and it raises Facebook's Asia profile even further as people continue to wonder how Facebook might finally address one of the biggest markets in the world, China.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/yQi6YeJ6eB0/
