How You Can Turn a Tech IPO into an 863% Return

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

For years now, I've advised my readers about how the average retail investor should avoid buying high-tech IPOs when they first start trading. When you buy at the open, you really risk losing your hard-earned money.

Problem is, people just can't wait. They want in, and they want in fast.

But a little patience on the right stocks, and you can still play them post-IPO for big returns. When you wait to buy, you can ride the "bounce back" period to huge gains...

Had you followed this advice with the savvy cloud provider I'll tell you about today, you could have made 863% in just a little over five years. But if you bought at the open, you risked losing more than half your capital.

2020's IPO calendar is filling up fast, which makes this the perfect time to give you the best IPO profit strategy to follow - plus share with you the big post-IPO winner that could still double your money if you buy now...

Here's the Secret to Making the Real Millions on IPOs

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

IPOs

I just love it when a hot new tech stock crashes.

Please don't think I'm taking delight in watching folks lose money.

Well unless it's those "geniuses" on Wall Street.

Just saying...

Here's the simple truth. If folks don't listen to me, I can't help them.

I have said for many years now that the average retail investor should avoid buying high-tech initial public offerings (IPOs) when they first start trading.

When you buy at the open, you really risk losing your hard earned money.

It's much better to wait a little more than six months from the open.

That's when insiders can sell, an event that usually means a big drop in price.

Had you followed that advice with a savvy cloud provider I've recommended, you could have made 863% in just a tad more than five years.

Why the Aramco IPO Doesn't Impress Me… Yet

By , Global Energy Strategist, Oil & Energy Investor • @KentMoors_OEI -

Trade on the Tadawul, the local Saudi Stock Exchange, began today for the largest initial public offering (IPO) in history.

Following the initial trading, Saudi Arabia has touted the IPO in mega state oil company Aramco as a success.

And at a glance, this assessment appears to be on target.

The first major success is this: It happened. For the first time the Saudis have allowed private ownership of a state-run enterprise, although admittedly less than 2% of it.

Then, there is the valuation. Selling 3 billion shares at 32 riyals ($8.53) each amounts to $25.6 billion. That makes this IPO the largest IPO in history, eclipsing even the float of Alibaba back in 2014, which was valued at $21.8 billion.

It also puts an overall value on Aramco of $1.7 trillion, making it, once again, the largest ever seen and close to the $2 trillion initially projected by Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman prior to the first abortive attempt at an IPO over two years ago.

In addition, global interest may well increase the number of shares available from the placement. Currently, the number of shares amounts to only about 1.5% of the company. That could increase to about 2% if an option to sell additional shares is exercised. And there is some evidence that the outside interest is growing.

However, despite all this positive success, the downside of this IPO didn't take long to emerge...

Avoid the Aramco IPO Disaster and Buy These Energy Stocks Instead

By , Technical Trading Specialist, Money Morning • @DRBarton_Stocks -

You can't buy shares in the new public company Saudi Aramco. At least not easily.

And that's a very good thing.

I wouldn't touch the shares of what is now the world's largest publicly traded company with a 10-foot pole.

And you shouldn't either.

There are two companies that I do like in the energy sector.

They are MUCH better investments that Aramco's overly hyped IPO to trade or invest in.

I'll tell you about them below.

This Industry Is the Best Backdoor Play on the Saudi Aramco IPO

By , Guest Writer, Money Morning -

Saudi Arabia has been prepping for the ultimate IPO of its state-run oil industry.

According to the company's prospectus, the Saudi Aramco IPO could take place in December, with shares being priced on Nov. 17.

Selling shares of the oil giant will bring in billions for Saudi Arabia, putting an impressive trillion dollars on the value of the company.

As always, those buying shares in this hot IPO won't be the ones getting rich.

It will be those selling shares that reap the rewards.

But, there is a sneaky "backdoor" that will pay off in a huge way for investors today.

Here's Where IPOs Are Still Crushing the Market by 40%

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

The mainstream financial media is having a bearish moment when it comes to initial public offerings. In story after feature story, you're bombarded with the idea that anyone who's excited about a big-name IPO is just setting themselves up for disappointment.

On paper, that narrative makes sense. WeWork's attempt at a $47 billion debut was farcical; its valuation plummeted to $14 billion before the offering was abandoned... and the CEO fell on his sword.

Then there's Peloton. Shares dropped 11.2% in its first day of trading on Sept. 26 - a decline that, according to The Wall Street Journal, directly influenced the decision of Endeavor Group talent firm to put off its own IPO. Insiders were obviously terrified of "poor market conditions."

But these were simply two bad IPOs, two expensive failures that had Wall Street wringing its hands.

The truth is tech and life sciences firms are still IPO leaders; that segment of the market is actually doing much better than stocks overall.

And if you snatch up the shares I'm about to recommend, you'll be ahead, too...
