NEW YORK, Jan. 7 (UPI) -- Privately held U.S. technology giant Facebook said in a document sent to investors it would cross a barrier this year that could force it to go public.
Facebook sent the 100-page document to "a select group of investors," The Wall Street Journal reported Friday. In the position paper, the firm said it would have more than 500 investors sometime this year, the number the Securities and Exchange Commission considers the limit for a privately held company.
