This turkey rates to be a VERY long haul. And, just btw, companies aren't burning cash at all; they're hoarding it, for the very reason you cited -- goobermint intrusiveness.
Good trading to you!
So why go IPO for the long haul when you can buy it at the next dip and there is always a next dip, sell off and a next dip.....
Short sales are blamed for exacerbating the declining market movements and regulators will tighten rules.
Ever read "Trading with the Enemy" written employee [Nick Maier] of "Hedge funder" Jim Cramer's Wall Street.? Cramer never disputed the manipulation of say Hannafords to sell short..or the book itself for that matter. But Martha Stewart gets jail time for..her probably coached story about some stop-loss order. She should have just said nothing at all and received no jail time. But now I am sidetracked!!
Interesting note: Diwali India
Coal India IPO after November 3 fuelled the Diwali jump after an announcement of lifting some US 'government' curbs on exports of sensitive technology to India
I wonder how some "insiders" in Washington fared on that one? Another story in of itself, that burns me. But again there is always another Martha Stewart to cast into the limelight.
Thanks & Good Luck
