Oh look, the completely expected and basically dependable event that happens after EVERY IPO, happened. Anyone jumping on an initial IPO is a fucking idiot. They always go under.

They might eventually still make it back to be profitable if they wait months or even years... or they could have waited a few weeks and bought the inevitable dip and never been underwater in the first place, making more profit.

$185 is still way above the already ridiculous IPO price of $135. If this market made any sense, it wouldn't have gotten this high in the first place, but since we're here, it should really continue dropping. However, knowing how this market is, I wouldn't be surprised if this is just a momentary dip before going back up for some dumb made-up reason.

What do you mean by “the average buyer.” Wouldn’t all buyers currently be in the same exact position?

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I've read that there are masses that are now shorting the stock too, and they're making money on the dip. Those wouldn't be your average buyer. Although idk if any of that is considered in that statement from the author.

So the pump dumped?

Wow. Such surprise. /s

[-] auzy1@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

Omg. How?? Nobody foresaw this

[-] BigBenis@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Wow, who could have seen that coming?

[-] thejml@sh.itjust.works 25 points 4 hours ago

I mean, is it really an IPO if it isn't insanely overpriced when initially offered?

[-] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

Initially no, they're designed to be under so that it surges after ipo, that makes it look good performance.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Well this one's designed to slip quickly into index funds and forced buying, so it makes sense to be high.

[-] toofpic@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Yeah, I would say it's quite usual to see a big dip right from the start. It's just hamsters for whom buying Space X is their first trade don't know about that
