๐นAn initial public offering (IPO) is the first time a private company issues corporate stock to the public. Startups seeking capital to expand often issue IPOs, and, established privately owned companies looking to become publicly traded to get more liquidity.
๐IPOs are usually exciting, companies tend to create a buzz around it, the media is trying to figure out the opening price, and retail investors love getting in on the action!
๐The sad reality is that the majority of IPOs go south, making existing shareholders wealthy, who can get rid of their shares, and often hours before the opening, share prices plummet. It's incredibly difficult to predict which company will succeed!
๐ In 2023, companies held an IPO, after the market climate got better. $BIRK (Birkenstock Holding Ltd)ย $CART (Instacart)ย and $ARM (ARM Holdings PLC)ย were the most exciting ones for the public, and surprisingly, about 30% of the companies traded above their opening price.
๐ฅธSo what is coming up in 2024? IPOs are usually filed 1-2 weeks ahead of time, but there are exciting companies rumoured to go public! Let's see the best ones!
๐ ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ - Creator of $XRP, I hope they don't need an introduction. I am personally excited, as I already own shares in Ripple. They still have a pending lawsuit with the SEC, as soon as it's over, they will go public.
๐ค๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ - Also a well-known company, the current valuation is $10 Billion
๐จ๏ธ๐๐ถ๐๐ฐ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฑ - Rumored to IPO since 2021 after turning down a $10 billion buyout from $MSFT (Microsoft)
๐๐ฆ๐ต๐ฒ๐ถ๐ป - There is probably no one on the planet who has not ordered something from Shein already. E-commerce competitor for $BABA (Alibaba-ADR)
๐ณ๐๐น๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ป๐ฎ - Fintech company with a working business model in the payments and loans space - Buy Now, Pay Later. May not sound sexy, but it's a strong company with a $6.7 billion valuation. Will compete with $PYPL (PayPal Holdings)
๐ซ ๐๐ถ๐พ๐๐ถ๐ฑ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ต - This is a fun one. They are selling canned water. With a killer marketing pitch, and can design. "Murder your thirst" I'd love to hear about their IPO, the best candidate for shorting. I mean, come on, they sell water at a premium price.
