Tackle Today: IPO’s this week

December 10, 2020

By | 2 Comments

Airbnb and DoorDash lead the names

Traders,

There are a few notable companies that are having their Initial Public Offering (IPO) this week including DoorDash (Ticker: Dash) on Wednesday and Airbnb (Ticker: ABNB) Thursday as well as Roblox (Ticker: RBLX) rumored to be on Friday but most likely sometime this month.

When IPO’s hit the market, especially with companies that have recognizable brand names with products or services that many of us use, it can be exciting.  But, it’s wise for any trader or investor to remember the lessons of past IPO’s.  For every stock that IPO’s and goes gangbusters to the upside, there are many stocks that either fizzle or sell off. 

After an IPO, a sensible approach to take is to wait for information, data, a chart pattern to develop and catch the opportunity after we can see how the dust has settled.  For any trader, how long that is and how long that takes must be defined for themselves. 

When watching these IPO’s come out, there’s nothing wrong with tracking the companies, adding them to watch lists and preparing for potential trades.  But, don’t get swept up in the emotions alone.  If you’re going to watch any IPO stock you should build a plan on how you’re going to approach it after launch.

    Are you sure that Roblox will be IPOing this Friday, December the 11th? I’ve seen no external source verify this. I was looking to invest in RBLX and wanted to get in early, so just trying to see if this is true or not.

      Hi Mohamed,

      I had read that from a few sources earlier in the week. I can’t find confirmation on RBLX, so I’ve edited the post to reflect RBLX for sometime in December. Thanks for the catch.
