    It's truly ridiculous. It's a company that is still making huge losses, and already had quite a lot of private investors, they didn't really need the 3 billion dollar. But the reason why these companies are going public, is so that the management guys and top investors can become billionaires.

    The CEO is some Dutch guy that has been only 2 years with the company and is now worth about 4 billion dollars, not because of his salary but purely because of his shares in the company. This madness needs to stop, enough is enough. :thumbd:

    Yeah, there must be HUGE value in Snowflake that hasn't been spotted and cornered already by incidentals like Microsoft, Amazon, Google (Alphabet), SAP, Oracle, and IBM. :isay:

    The name could be an omen?

    Yes it's ridiculous as if we didn't already have enough companies that are focused on the cloud. But apparently Snowflake has got a unique selling point, but don't ask me what that is. :rolleyes:
