Clusters of Investors Around Initial Public Offerings

Why do we have clusters of investors around (IPO) initial public offerings? IPO is a vital part of financial markets as they create new investment opportunities, lure new investors into the market, and redistribute funds’ allocations. Let’s go into more detail about Initial Public Offering and why investors seem to be flocking towards it.

What is an Initial Public Offering?

An Initial Public Offering (IPO) is basically when a company goes public. In an IPO, a private limited company makes its shares available on the stock market for investors to purchase. The shares can either be issued newly or previously held by early investors or founders. Many entrepreneurs long for this Milestone of success, which is going public. This is because a successful initial public offering can result in fame, prestige, fortune, and power. However, not everyone can pull it off.

Here are some valid reasons why investors choose IPO’s to invest in.

Financial Advantage

One of the main advantages of investing in IPO’s is the financial reward. The success of an IPO can mean millions or even billions of dollars for an investor. This is because companies often launch IPO’s when the market is bullish; therefore, the chances of a price increase are high.

Moreover, not only do you get to enjoy the benefits of your investment, but you get to do it knowing that you are providing capital to the economy and helping businesses to grow and provide real goods and real services to consumers.

Exit Opportunity

Private limited companies usually find it difficult to raise capital, because as an investor invests his money into the company, he gets locked into that company. On the other hand, public companies’ investors are able to enter the investment and exit when it suits them.

Whenever an investor wants to sell his investment, he can do it with ease because there is a secondary market for all the stocks that are listed on the exchange, and it is always active; so someone is always available and willing to buy as well. Such liquidity is what encourages investors to let go of their money comfortably.

Price Transparency

Price transparency is something that is very important when it comes to investing. With Initial Public Offerings, the price per security that is issued is stated clearly in the IPO order document; therefore, you can easily access the same information that bigger investors have access to as well.

Nevertheless, it would be different in the case of post-IPO. After the IPO, the share price would be contingent on fluctuating market rates as well as the stockbroker’s best price offer.

Cheap Purchase, Big Earnings

Usually, the IPO price is at its lowest when you are looking to invest in a small business that has great potential to grow into a hugely successful company. Due to its size, and perhaps the stage it is in its growth process, the company might give a discounted rate.

Once you miss that opportunity, investing in that company will be hard because the stock price will most likely rise steeply, and those that would have grabbed the opportunity would gain from it.

Easier Analysis

The Initial Public Offering catalog provides enough information any investor would need to analyze stocks easily. A lot of this information is often unavailable when you purchase stocks from a secondary market. This is a great advantage, indeed, as it helps investors to make informed decisions.

Final Thoughts

We could go on about the advantages of investing in IPO’s, but it would take all day. Even though there are some cons to this investment, the pros outweigh them or rather are worth the risk. The year 2020 looks promising for IPO’s.

Even accounting firm (E and Y) Ernst and Young wrote in a fairly recent report that they are expecting a flood of IPO to come to the market. They also continue to express how they see global IPO activity picking up as we approach the traditional peak Initial Public Offering season.

Clearly, a lot of money is up to grab in the next couple of years with IPO’s; the cluster of investors around initial public offerings right now proves nothing. Don’t be left out.
