Here’s When to Buy an IPO

Ken Fisher, founder, Executive Chairman and Co-Chief Investment Officer of Fisher Investments, discusses initial public offerings (IPOs), whether they’re a good investment and when investors should consider buying them. According to Ken, IPOs are brought to the marketplace when it’s good for the company to bring them, not when it’s good pricing for investors. Ken says this is why historically, the average IPO has been an often expensive and losing bet for investors.

Since most IPOs stumble in the first couple years after going public, Ken recommends investors wait to invest in IPOs until the price goes down. Ken also reminds investors it is very difficult, if not impossible, to predict the world’s next big stock but that time can bring newer stocks down to reasonable prices.
