IPO Frenzy Coming To An End And Update On Global Market

By Kurt Osterberg · On April 9, 2018

IPO Frenzy Coming to an End

The benchmark index has corrected 7.4% from its peak in January 2018. Mirroring the subdued market sentiments of the broader indices, IPOs too have not performed well.

Of the eleven IPOs we have covered since the beginning of 2018, seven are in the red zone. The expensive valuation is the key factor leading to these companies trading below their issue price.

At Equitymaster, we have always stayed away from initial public offer (IPO) as most of the time the issues are expensive and the detailed information as required from the management pertaining to the company is not available.

The losses as seen in the recent IPOs have led to companies delaying their offerings. As per an article in Economic Times, atleast six proposed IPOs of companies such as ACME Solar Holdings, Barbeque Nation, Prince Pipes & Fittings, Seven Islands Shipping and Gandhar Oil Refinery have postponed their offer by few months.

Unless the IPOs are decently priced, investors would be better off investing at a later stage when more clarity on the business arises.
