UBS: Facebook IPO Cost Us $350 Million

UBS AG said it took a loss of more than $350 million on the ill-fated Facebook Inc. IPO, wiping out nearly half of its second-quarter profit. It accused Nasdaq OMX Group Inc. of a "gross mishandling" of the stock-market listing.

Of course, anyone who wanted to could have foreseen the crash of Facebook stocks.
