As you probably know, Facebook (symbol FB) suffered the worst dollar loss of any equity in human history last week.

What does that mean? On the bullish hand, it means it’s a great price for the long haul. On the bearish side, it means that there’s a meaningful chance of a trendline failure, which would be long-term catastrophic.

I’ll say this, at least – – with the laughable explosion higher that stocks have enjoyed the past couple of days, Facebook’s performance is absolutely pathetic.
