Twitter IPO

Postby Reynaldo » Thu Nov 07, 2013 11:17 am

The sort of thing I loathe about investing. The only people with access to buy shares early at the original IPO price are hedge fund managers and inside investors so every time one of these big companies has an IPO, the big fish double their billions and get out, so the common man investor can only acquire shares if they choose at the inflated values and get to enjoy the stock trickle back down to a decent level.

Sucks!!!
