Twitter (Nasdaq: TWTR) has been the worst social media stock to own over the past year. And that’s no easy feat.
Shares of LinkedIn (Nasdaq: LNKD) have fallen 54% over the past twelve months. Yelp (Nasdaq: YELP) is off 56% over the same period. The online advertising market has been unkind for these social-focused companies.
But none of those falls rival Twitter.
Shares Twitter are down more than 65% in just the last year. They’re also off more than 33% from the 2013 IPO offer price of $26. As a Twitter shareholder myself, the journey has been especially painful.
However, after all the negativity surrounding the company — which has ranged from rumors of changes in character limits to an exodus of top executives — Twitter could finally be hitting a turning point.

Cray Inc.

The big casinos certainly want to spend big. Las Vegas Sands (NYSE:LVS) says a new integrated resort in Japan will cost anywhere from $6 billion to $10 billion, two to three times more than it spent on building its brand new French-themed Parisian resort in Macau. MGM Resorts (NYSE:MGM) says it, too, could spend $10 billion for a new casino in Japan, quadruple the cost of its MGM Cotai that’s scheduled to open later this year. Wynn Resorts (NASDAQ:WYNN) hasn’t put a price tag on it yet, though it spent over $4 billion to open the Palace in Macau last August, but CEO Steve Wynn says the opportunity is “thoroughly delicious.”
