"if you were able to buy in at their original asking price 68 of IPOs did go up in value the moment they hit the market with an average return of 12 from 2000 to 2020."

"within a day over two-thirds of IPOs saw an average increase of 13.6 percent"

"if you're the average retail investor buying in the moment it becomes public on the open market things are not looking so good that's because as investors go nuts over the hype and excitement of new fresh blood in the stock market that demand instantly pushes up the price which is why you'll sometimes see an IPO set at 100 a share but the moment it becomes available it's now 115 dollars well in that case only 48 percent of IPOs saw a price increase had you just bought in as soon as it was publicly available and that average gain was only a modest 1.3 percent meaning most IPOs lose money in the first day if you're an average retail investor"
