Question regarding the new the new shares held on HSX stat and IPO's

Posted by: aldus on Nov 17, 07:21

Doesn't this stat eliminate some-maybe all- of the risk in buying an IPO?

Wouldn't it be safe to assume that if there are more shares held long than short when

an ipo is released that it will automatically rise (or fall if more shares are held short)?

Or is there a variable here that I am missing?

best thing to do is watch current IPOs and the shares held. its a learning experience for all of us! {nm} ndmaster Nov 17, 08:41

judging from Monday IPOs (that moved for the first time yesterday), there is more to the stock movement than just longs vs. shorts {nm} lapuckfan Nov 17, 09:26

you're right- yesterday's IPO's moved exacly the opposite of what they would have had my logic been correct. Thanks. (nm) aldus Nov 18, 09:45
