Facebook IPO Ends Flat: Right Back at $38

Facebook's big day is over, though its IPO didn't meet Wall Street's expectations. Some highlights:

• Rise and fall: Shares opened at $38, rose quickly to $42, then sank again to $38 before underwriters stepped in to keep the price up, reports the Wall Street Journal. Shares closed about where they started, at $38.23.
• Record day: Facebook broke the record for most shares traded in a day with more than 460 million. GM held the previous record with 458 million.
• Trading snafus: The heavy volume took a toll. Nasdaq is taking flak for communication glitches about orders, along with the 30-minute delay in the opening.
• Mark Zuckerberg: Curious how much richer he is? This widget to the rescue.
