what will happen in facebook ipo 2012 : The Facebook IPO will be the biggest financial event in the tech industry for 2012, Facebook co-founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg has deflected talk of going public for years but it looks like it is finally going to happen in 2012.

With an expected deal size of $10 billion, Facebook would slip into sixth place on the list of largest US IPOs between AT&T Wireless Group ($10.62 billion) and Kraft Foods ($8.68 billion), according to Renaissance Capital. Facebook IPO release date April and June 2012

A market capitalization of $100 billion would put Facebook on a par with McDonald's ($103 billion), well ahead of Boeing ($54 billion) but behind Apple ($376 billion) and another Internet giant, Google ($209 billion).

Facebook's current annual revenue, mostly from online advertising, is estimated to be around $5 billion compared to $108 billion for Apple and $36 billion for Google.

In the easiest prediction anyone will ever make, let me go out on a very short limb and say that Facebook will announce an IPO within the first three months of 2012. The share price will shoot through the stratosphere, briefly making Mark Zuckerberg the world's richest geek as well as the sweatiest, before falling back to earth. A handful of investment bankers will get richer; the rest of us, not so much
