Initial Public Offering

What Is an IPO?
An IPO is a process a private company undertakes to become public. Almost all companies start as privately funded, receiving money from founders, friends, and family. Once the company has a strategic business plan,
it can apply for small-business loans and venture capital funding.

However, these private funding sources will eventually run out for a growing company. The company then looks for alternative capital to reinvest in its business. A common next step is to look for public funding by
making shares available to public investors through an IPO.


Once a company becomes public, it makes sense to wonder if that stock is right for investors. You should be waiting a few months until the stock’s price stabilizes, but each IPO is different. If the stock’s price is less
than Morningstar’s fair value estimate, it could be worth considering.


Hey ya'll ! I really love finances and talking about ways to make it easier to make more, save more, give more, and of course spend more. So most of the stuff we will be diving into will be related to finances with the odd topic here and there, plus maybe a special appearance from Rocko, my big pittie baby! I want to start off with easier concepts and the basics of money and work my way into the more difficult and nuance topics. You may be asking, why would I ever listen to you about anything? That's a fair point, and you don't have to. However, I would love to take this journey with you into the financial world and together we can learn and grow, not only our knowledge but our bank accounts too! I am not a Financial Advisor, any investment commentary are my opinions only.
