Key Pieces Of Google Stock Price

Google stock price started out at an initial public offering of just $85 per share in August of 2004. At the time analysts debated whether or not the company was worth it.

So much of Google’s value was intellectual property as opposed to real property and the market was not used to the idea that internet companies could be so valuable.

Long story short, there is absolutely no reason to debate about this anymore, since Google stock price is 5 times its initial value and 5 years later the company has the market value of $175 billion dollars.

The initial climb was the most impressive as the Google stock price rose to over $100 in the first day, and then doubled within the next three months.

Analysts still debate the value of the company but it is more a matter of how much more it will grow and how quickly. Many investors in the Australian stock market also join in this debate.
