Muddy Waters report crushed NQ sheesh

Quick question on getting in on the IPO of a company

How impossible is it? How exactly does it work? The underwriter of the company will only let you invest if you have a lot of $? Anyone in this tthread executed on buying shares at the IPO price? I have looked up some iinformation about it, but wanted to find out more in here.

I'm asking because of Twitter. I initially wanted to get in on VEEV's IPO of $20, but it was a few days before the company went public so I felt that was a little too short notice. They ended up blasting up 80% afterwards.

I would guess you are too late for TWTR also. Call your broker and see if they have/had IPO shares allocated for their clients. They will be able to tell you more about how it works for your specific situation

I've always had a bias against Chinese companies. This is one of the reasons.

^ Meh, after that earnings report with record profits and raising guidance I ain't got no worries. But that movement really makes no sense to me: strong profits, large sale numbers, etc.

That's the thing. Really good news, yet only +1.4% for the day.

[wizards23]

NBG still in an uptrend, not sure where it ends up but the trend is bullish right now

Did anyone invest into VEEV?


Just curious because I've been studying for the last 6 months on a practice site and I've been doing well. Finally have a good amount saved and I will be making plans to invest soon via scottrade.

 

[wizards23]

Been hearing good things about VEEV. Just be patient with your entries. I took a quick look at the chart and it looks like whole numbers (41, 40) are acting as support so but the dip as long as support holds. 43 looks like the nearest resistance level fwiw

 

[sunsetcity]

bump for the wizard monday calls

 

[sunsetcity]

damn, wish i would have kept FNMA and bought some more. Is it too high for entry now?
