Bubble Burst? IPOs Are Having Their Worst Year Since Lehman
IPOs have underperformed the S&P 500 by a stunning 17% year-to-date, extending losses today to 26% year-to-date.
This is the worst year for IPOs since 2008... right as Lehman collapsed...
With private valuations still sky high in the minds of their VC 'guru' investors, we suspect the fact that this year is now the worst year for IPOs since 2008 will begin to raise doubts about even the most unicorn-y opportunity.

Damn it! The "Since Lehman" game is now underway, and I currently have no alcohol near me.
Damn job!
Since when? Since who? Since what?

Gartman just went bullish on commodities, Glencore bankruptcy and oil at $20 here we come
It's different this time, the IPOs are for celebrity-backed non-toxic-baby-gear delivery services in a culture that isn't reproducing up to replacement levels. It's sure to be a winner.
I would assume because most companies that had an IPO in 2015 can't find the cash to buy back shares?
Next business cycle peak, we'll be saying "Since Glencore."
Since the second stone age
Not just IPO's, I have stocks that I have for over 8 years that have been very stable, give a 12%, 14% and 15% dividend without stops, and they all crashed today for no reason.
We're heading into a panick mode last seen in 2008 where EVERYTHING CRASHES, GOOD OR BAD!
Really? no reason?
After all of this you can say "no reason"?
Are you still clinging to the notion of fundamentals?
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, sorry, just spilled my scotch.
I'll send you 'nother....what's your fax#?
