Millions of Investors Get Suckered by Hot IPOs – Here's What to Do Instead

By , America's No. 1 Pattern Trader, Money Morning • @powerproftrades -

Almost nothing generates a bigger financial media splash than a red-hot initial public offering (IPO). It's like the Oscars, Christmas, and the Fourth of July rolled into one.

And (with the exception of a few cannabis IPOs) that can be a bit of a problem for regular investors, who might naturally get excited by the hype.

An IPO like Lyft is like a big, fancy dinner, where huge players - like Carl Icahn, say, or Ray Dalio - and the underwriters are all sitting at the table chowing down on gourmet food. They get first dibs, and the best prices.

In fact, just yesterday, The Wall Street Journal reported Carl Icahn sold his 2.7% Lyft stake to George Soros ahead of the public offering.

Under that table, scrounging for scraps that might fall, are... regular investors like you and me.

It's often nearly impossible to buy shares, and if you do manage to get an order filled, you'll almost certainly have paid way too much.

Yep - our "competition" in the IPO game is folks trading $550 million positions like they're trading baseball cards.

I'm going to show you what else is happening with these big IPOs - and I'll name a much better way for investors and traders like us to cash in...

And that's exactly what it did.

Only, it's worse than the press is making it out to be.

Here's how Lyft, a distant cousin of Icarus, flew too close to the sun...
