Thread: Is the IPO process broken? Are we in a bubble?

Despite what many investors think, saying we’re showing signs of being in a bubble. This thread is designed to provide an ulterior perspective, on the IPO process and not the market as a whole.

The IPO process is broken.
The reason why I blame the process, and not market speculation/hype is directly correlated with a low share float among these exciting IPO’s. It’s simple supply and demand. There is not enough supply for retail investors, which is currently at a high due to free stock trading
apps such as TD Ameritrade, Robinhood, WeBull and Trader 212.

The process is broken.

When a company goes public, like $SNOW that has only 14% (ONLY 14% of the total share float!!) available to the public. Hedge funds, other companies, and institutional traders have scooped
up the other 86% of the shares available for public trading.

Retail traders, which as stated before is at an all time high, are not getting shaken out despite Wall Street’s best efforts. Whom of which are hiking the price up, because we’re left with overvalued bread crumbs.
These overvalued bread crumbs are the scraps of the IPO process. This can lead to why more and more organizations are choosing the rising, and ever so popular SPAC process.

Thread: Growth Investing Strategies

When evaluating new positions, it becomes a very methodical and repetitious process over time. As I continue on my investment journey, I find myself understanding more and more about what good looks like. Especially, after you’ve read many
investor presentations and 10Q’s. However, over time it becomes more simple and if I were to oversimplify the strategy as a whole it comes down to one thing, growth. There are three growth metrics an investor should evaluate first before any time is wasted any further, they are:
1.) Past YoY revenue growth. The reason why this is significant is that it clearly shows you from a birds eye view how effective management is on executing their growth and expansion strategy. Many speculative investments (today I find them in EV, and in 2018 found it in MJ)

SPAC Warrant Thread:

Warrants are a higher risk, higher reward investment made available to retail traders through SPAC’s. They trade a lot like call options in the sense where if you buy a warrant, and the stock price never goes over the strike price, it will expire worthless.
However, MOST (not all) warrants on SPAC’s have a few things in common:

1.) $11.50 strike price, meaning if the stock price goes over $11.50 you can exercise the warrant at $11.50 + your purchase price.

2.) Expires in 5 years
3.) Typically a 1:1 ratio where 1 warrant = 1 share price.

These commonalities should always be checked prior to investing into warrants.

Basically how they work is a SPAC will issue a share + a warrant under a ticker, for example, $IPOBUN. Eventually, the SPAC splits the
