I'm not understanding why an IPO will go up or down the day after

Posted by: shadomoon (a.k.a del_RAV_shadomoon) on Jun 15, 08:21

Is it the stars in it or the appeal of the subject matter?

Some IPO's go up and stay up and others go up a bit but then drop like a rock.

Is there a clearer way to understand the reasoning?

What I don't understand is why when 90% of shares of an IPO held short, the stock still goes UP. {nm} drakkar Jun 15, 09:04

Because only trades made the same day count towards price movement. {nm} RogerMore Jun 15, 10:16

Everyone says "Short $2 IPOs" but frequently they don't actually go down, only the reset traders make money playing the players drakkar Jun 16, 09:44

No, because in addition to the factors you list there are players taking a quick profit and cashing out (more inside) DTravel Jun 15, 12:50
