- gravis7777 9y agodoubt it
- maxxxxx 9y agoIsn't that the best time to IPO? "Sell high..."
- bsvalley 9y agoFrom an employee perspective, sure. Pump and dump is what you'd be looking for. But technically speaking you want your stock to go up as a company. Isn't it the whole point?
- chrisan 9y agoSo you sold all of your positions and will be re-buying after the hit?
- mediaman 9y agoWouldn't that be the best time to go public? Before valuations drop? Usually you don't want to sell your stock to the public after it's crashed.
- bsvalley 9y agoSure, we call it pump and dump. Awesome for insiders but terrible for investors. I'm talking from an investor perspective. By going public today it might only benefit a few early birds such as founders, angels, founding team, etc. If the market crashes it's terrible for new investors, anyone who bought the IPO. If you IPO after a storm your stock can only go up from the bottom.
