Is PBPB a buy? They just went public today.

Looks like the clincher was getting in pre-IPO... I think the question is: Should it be shorted for when people take profit and it gets back to real valuation?

How do you buy pre-IPO?

I'm pretty sure you can only get access from one of the underwriting companies like MS, GS, JP Morgan, Citigroup, etc. that offer it to their wealthy clients.

It's worth to note that the IPO system is "rigged" against private investors. If its a hot deal, the banks load themselves up before it hits the market, leaving nothing for private investors. While if it's not so hot or its a bad deal (see Facebook), the banks still wanna get their commission, so they push the IPO on their clients.

Does anyone know why GOOG is up 9% (!) in pre market?

No clue if related, but they accidentally leaked pics of nexus 5 yesterday, and price was higher than expected.

You don't to be an expert to view the premarket price. So it is no different than asking why Goog went up during market hours.

Any place where your viewing premarket prices should have articles right under with current news which surely should mention this

How do you buy pre-IPO?

You buy shares directly from the company or from an investment vehicle that owns shares.

I usually get my news from marketwatch and I didn't remember getting anything about Google going up ( nor that they're reporting now their earnings ) so it was interesting to me.

The underwriter aren't allowed to keep any stock. They have to give it out to clients
