Less than two weeks ago, when Twitter’s stock was trading in the $17.70 range, Benzinga asked Twitter users where they thought
the stock would be six months from now. An impressive 70 percent of those surveyed predicted that the stock would either be above
$20 per share or taken over by a buyer by February 2017.
Only 9 percent of respondents believed the stock is headed for the single digits, while 21 percent predicted the stock will end
up back around the $17 level.
The 41 percent of respondents that predicted a push above $20 came in about 5.5 months ahead of schedule on their predictions.
Despite the huge move in Twitter shares in the past couple of months, Twitter’s stock remains down 27.6 percent in the past
year.
