- NOTE: If history offers any clue, then FB stock could be up for a comeback after this dip. Its shares have rebounded strongly after every major crisis the company has endured over the past few years. The reason is simple: businesses can’t afford to ignore the FB platform due to the company’s massive global reach. By the end of the second quarter, Facebook had 1.91 billion daily active users for its flagship social network.
