Is there a lockout period for these large VC investors when they do an IPO?
Or do they get to dump as much of the stock as possible in these IPOs? And if so, I think there needs to be a big compilation of large shareholders of these IPOs and how much money they are making off the IPO. We might see some interesting patterns.
For example, if certain VCs sell their shares at the very beginning, is that a sure signal that everything is going to fall apart soon?
- erikpukinskis 7y agoThere are no sure signals on the stock market. To the extent such a signal briefly exists, it will quickly be priced into the market. You just have to look at the details on each specific offering and try to find an “unsure” signal that you have confidence in because of some special expertise you developed that not everyone in the market has.
- jjeaff 7y agoYes, but it would be nice to use those signals to know which VCs are crooks so they can be publicly shamed.
