They have one product line. Yeah they are *the* name in that line, but still one line. Not a good investment.

They should just go back to being private

Drones got cheaper

Likamus

there are some amazing gopro vids on YouTube !

Because A) everyone has a good camera in their pocket at all times B) gopro hasn't released anything substantially different in years, but keeps releasing them C) expensive

Did they ever make a profit? Go in the black? I wonder which big money investors made money and cashed out?

We use to tape phones to our helmets. Was just as good.

It was an innovative idea but GoPro videos just aren’t that cool to watch :/

been their done that

Tough making money selling hardware

Maybe GoPro should evaluate the marketplace considering the phones are cameras too, nothing less than a wearable action camera.

Yall do this same story every 4 months. We know it’s a commercial. Just send me a camera already.

There is a short listed every day on the exchange. Everyone wants to be more than they are, and demand high valuations before profitability. .Not everyone is a company in: technology, cloud, lifestyle, etc. WeWork and peloton will test this. Devil is in the regulatory filings

It was over pumped to begin with

Novelty cameras don’t last long.

I still remember the analysts that CNBC brought on air in 2014 pumping GoPro. Glad I ignored their advice!

You can get just as good a camera in a dji drone and it flies!

Because its overpriced you can buy half price Chinese made action camera and it does the same thing.

Buy that stock. Every mind numbingly boring person I know is intent on sharing their videos.

I like surfing, snorkeling, and mountain biking if I had gopro millions or billions. I wouldn't buy a $500 camera to record it though. I'd rather live it.
