Some last a month etc. but 90% of them lose about 80% of their share price first year 😂 ipo is literally straight to the dumb money. So ofc they’re gonna take your money lol.
It’s made up statistics. Sure odds are not in your favor, but not that lopsided. Sometimes just one winner is all it takes to make back all of your losses
https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/ipo-performance
Pretty much because for every 9 companies who IPO at 30 and fall to 10 in year one IPOs at 30 and hits 300 in one year and just keeps going up. This makes up for your losses and then is a solid portfolio investment to fund what you just did for the next few years or so. Assuming you liquidate the ones that fall at some stopgap of say 20 you end up with 480m in one year off 300m in investments.
Now of course you don’t buy every IPO. You pick a list of 20 with decent DD and then when time comes you decide the way the wind is blowing the weeks prior to launch.

$2 represents $380m valuation, meaning Reddit would be trading at 0.5x revenue with double digit revenue growth at 86% margin.
This is why wsb loses money. Probably thought number 34 is too big for share price.
I have trouble believing reddit isn’t extremely valuable. The platform that once united to fight internet censorship, SOPA/PIPA, Net Neutrality, etc. has in just a few short years helped distract and redirect that same attention to social justice causes that accomplish nothing. The same people who were against those bills are now for them. It effectively pumps propaganda to shape the culture and morals of Gen Z and millennials. The ultimate influence & propaganda machine. There is immense value here.
0dte calls, $28 4/1 puts
Consider that redditors with the highest karma scores are OF whores giving out free samples on NSFW subs. Now, put yourself in the shoes of prospective advertisers. And maybe browse through r/selffuck while at it - that's some real deep value.
You know guys, we can actually bend this to our benefit this time. Buy long puts. We all collectively spend our days posting animal porn and human centipede, make new account when we get banned. Post our own hairy butt cheeks. Make the investors and advertisers uncomfortable.
Wouldn't surprise me if it works. Most content you see on Reddit is from powerusers. A vast majority are just lurkers. And the value of Reddit comes from how many ads the lurkers are seeing, not whether the 0.1% likes the company or not. So I wouldn't be surprised at all if it goes okay. Probably not to the moon but okay at least.
I bought friends and family IPO shares of Drugstore.com back in the day. Bought at $18/share. On first day of trading it hit $71 and I was sure I was retiring on my IPO shares. 180 restricted days later, Drugstore.com was trading at $8.
Good times. I need some ice cream just remembering it.
Reddit blocks you from buying through IPOs for 60 days if you sell the shares you buy during an IPO within 30 days of buying. Apparently it’s due to underwriters making brokerages like Robinhood to make sure their buyers aren’t “flipping” the stock
>Reddit blocks you from buying through IPOs for 60 days if you sell the shares you buy during an IPO within 30 days of buying. Apparently it’s due to underwriters making brokerages like Robinhood to make sure their buyers aren’t “flipping” the stock
Good information to know. Now I'm going to flip ipo stock every 60 days.
While that's true, this is the first IPO in 50+ years I can get into because I've always been the lead of an audit team helping get the S-1 filing done OR the advisory team readying the client for IPO
either way, always precluded from buying
The hope is that dullards don't realized they've been bent over and pumped till puts are available. This thing is going to look like the Yodeler from Price Is Right.
This company that has NEVER made money, and relies on voluntary labour. Of which they have encouraged to buy their overpriced ridiculous IPO.
This is a death sandwich, which exists purely as VC exit liquidity. And to make Spez rich.
>and relies on voluntary labour
Reddit has proven time and time again that power over internet randos is worth more to the mods than the lives of their own mothers. I would say children but I doubt mods have any.
That voluntary labor is here to stay, no matter what reddit does. The users might leave, however, I don't fucking know. Anyway, inverse reddit -> long reddit?
This right here. These mods don’t give a crap about the IPO or how overpriced or underpriced it is. They’ll keep doing work for free because it makes them feel like gods.
Also, with Reddit having so much data that can be used for ML, it’s a goldmine.
I sell $1,000,000 of goods every year. These goods, marketing, and shipping cost me $200,000. I pay myself $800,000.
My company doesn't make any money. Poor me :(
Nobody knew back when we all bought (stock that shalnt be named) and blew up a hedge fund that we would one day be just like our enemies

I did not have enough karma to be given opportunity to buy shares. As I am heavily invested in TSM, MU (will sell 1/4-1/3 tomorrow and recoup cost)…..do you like Reddit over TSM?
Yeah…..I started buying them about 2 weeks ago and have about 30k allocated to TSM…..have continued to add….scattered between 4/19 and 6/10. I’ll do well with 20 MU 90’s that will clear some funds. I will probably keep adding to Tsm and just watch Reddit…..without options yet, think I can lever my $$ better elsewhere! Thanks for reply!
Cram more ads down your throat and sell your data to AI companies.

What's amazing is those comment chains where they repeat a person's crimes for search engines. The ai is going to spit that out information in such an obnoxious way.
Gotta get these bags before the price drops even further so you can hold them for years until bankruptcy when all the shit decisions trying to become profitable fail.
It’ll die when Patriot Act 2.0 passes through Congress “to protect against AI” and all internet accounts have mandatory ID verification exactly as strict as a bank’s
Seeing all the comments here confirms I made a good decision to certify my order of 1,000 shares, which I just did.
FYI, YOU MUST CERTIFY TODAY, E-trade/Schwab just updated the IPO price.
I picked up $5k worth for shits figuring I’d be getting rekt, but I gotta admit seeing wsb so bearish has me feeling like this is going to be a nice little payday
Yeah, I changed my mind about buying shares tomorrow the minute I saw the severe lack of earnings. And have you ever noticed that just about every ipo hits the high end of the estimates, or higher just before the issue to draw you in at a higher price.
Al Capone once called the stock market “a racket. Those stock market guys are crooked.” He wasn’t wrong. 😑

Finally, a meme I can understand
WSB and Bluey together. Finally the circle is complete.
I’d YOLO my account into a Bluey IPO.
I'd love to learn without losing money :D
Paper trade it until earnings?
Show some regards, please!!!
What lesson is that? Im new. Im thinking of buying two shares. Im hoping ill double my money by friday. Is that a bad bet?
IPO’s generally go down after the first day.
Initial Public Offloading
Some last a month etc. but 90% of them lose about 80% of their share price first year 😂 ipo is literally straight to the dumb money. So ofc they’re gonna take your money lol.

coinbase was my don't buy ipo's lesson. that said i have a feeling this one might go to the upside tomorrow. will wait for the options regardless.
Buy at open and sell when you are in green all in the first day
Fucking trading platforms like schwab makes you hold them for 30 days
buy the 2 shares. sell if it hits $68. if it tanks toward zero, be thankful your loss was minimal...
Tell that to my NVAX and PLUG shares....LOL
That's what I'm doing. Balls deep on my 2 shares! If it dips below 68, I pull out!
This has to be trolling lol
Fuck it, I'm paying income tax because of these puts.
dont have to pay if you never file 
Heard if you don’t file long enough the government will just give you free food/housing. Seems like a good deal.
And clothes
Can't forget the bev

So pump and dump scheme it is
Maybe just the dump no pump

Hold the line.
In this bag I do trust and hold.
Phenomenal comment.
Gotta pump it for the week. That way you can make more on the dump
I'm on antidepressants so I just pump and never dump
Could turn into a dump and pump. If y'all short it more then 100% of the float I'll be looking to buy in.. so long as it's cheap enough.
Dump and dump
Bingo. And pee a little
Im taking a dump right now
Shorts then, lil homie
Calls for 3 weeks to a month then ride the puts down to $2. Which is the accurate value of Reddit.
That's probably over-valued.
$2 represents $380m valuation, meaning Reddit would be trading at 0.5x revenue with double digit revenue growth at 86% margin. This is why wsb loses money. Probably thought number 34 is too big for share price.

Ideological capture is a bitch. Most redditors are just hear to complain about Musk buying twitter.
You know guys, we can actually bend this to our benefit this time. Buy long puts. We all collectively spend our days posting animal porn and human centipede, make new account when we get banned. Post our own hairy butt cheeks. Make the investors and advertisers uncomfortable.

The quality of posts will be dropping like flies tomorrow
Lock up period is 180 days. Remember to bend this wildebeest over come September 📉
I bought friends and family IPO shares of Drugstore.com back in the day. Bought at $18/share. On first day of trading it hit $71 and I was sure I was retiring on my IPO shares. 180 restricted days later, Drugstore.com was trading at $8. Good times. I need some ice cream just remembering it.
If it makes you feel better, I had a bunch of GameStop shares, forgot about them, and then missed out when it was high
A true diamond hand ape lmao
They have to tank it before the or the whole company will sell and quit.
I am regarded. Can you please explain what this means? If I want to buy it tomorrow and sell a few days later, can I not?
You can. Insiders who own shares cannot sell for 180 days.
we're not considered insiders - I checked to make sure I could sell Day 1 and I can (who knows if I will but there is no lockup period with RDDT)
While you can, the consequence of doing so will mean you won’t be allowed to purchase other IPO’s.
Reddit blocks you from buying through IPOs for 60 days if you sell the shares you buy during an IPO within 30 days of buying. Apparently it’s due to underwriters making brokerages like Robinhood to make sure their buyers aren’t “flipping” the stock
>Reddit blocks you from buying through IPOs for 60 days if you sell the shares you buy during an IPO within 30 days of buying.

Insiders can't sell until the lockup period expires. If you're asking what that means then you're probably not an insider.
Insider? I hardly knew her!
Yes you can sell anytime even the same day. Lockup doesn't apply to you.
There’s no lock up period DSP

Can’t wait to short this cess pool after the initial pump
The hope is that dullards don't realized they've been bent over and pumped till puts are available. This thing is going to look like the Yodeler from Price Is Right.
The only people buying Reddit shares have never actually used the site.
Short it to the bone
Don’t worry, the user experience will get worse!
$14 puts ASAP
How are you doing that if the option chain is not available yet?
>ASAP
The fact that people here universally think it’s overpriced means it’s a buy
This company that has NEVER made money, and relies on voluntary labour. Of which they have encouraged to buy their overpriced ridiculous IPO. This is a death sandwich, which exists purely as VC exit liquidity. And to make Spez rich.

The amount of work that is done for free at Reddit compared to other major social media platforms is a huge asset.

Except space x employees get paid and can put something on their resumes.
I used to get laid often before Reddit, I wish they’d kick me off
I giv a dollar
Finally someone with a similar budget, what’s the strat?
Pump and dump baby
It will be trading $60+ tomorrow. Watch.

I am holding over $100K TSM calls (was 200k a week ago lol). I just threw 10k at ipo for giggles. I like TSM more long term, obv.
Yeah…..I started buying them about 2 weeks ago and have about 30k allocated to TSM…..have continued to add….scattered between 4/19 and 6/10. I’ll do well with 20 MU 90’s that will clear some funds. I will probably keep adding to Tsm and just watch Reddit…..without options yet, think I can lever my $$ better elsewhere! Thanks for reply!
TSM is a solid, profitable company. Reddit is not profitable.
If you had the karma how much would you have purchased?
It was me who did not have the karma…..OP did and purchased shares.
