Excerpts IPO

Disclaimer

Deepak Shenoy at Capital Mind has done a nice review of the Adlabs Imagica IPO

But I found his disclaimer even better than the review:

Very important note: Look, we’re in a bull market. Any share can go up. In 2006, We didn’t like the GMR IPO issue. It went from 250 to 800. We looked like fools. Then after a 10:1 split the price is now less than Rs. 18 (which would be Rs. 180 for the 2006 IPO holders). That makes us look better. But remember, the price went 4x before it fell – anything can happen, don’t just trust us. We have effectively ditched a potential 4x return earlier. That’s our disclaimer.
