What makes me wonder though, is that there was a similar period of heightened IPO "frenzy", when they were rumoring that they were going to move forwards, back in the summer or fall of last year. Rumors were building steadily, of huge IPOs on the near horizon, and for example TUDO just "went ahead" with their opening. Our two candidates froze solid, and chickened out.....I think I, and several others here have said, "They just need to do it, and get it over with, sink or swim"......I believe there's no such thing as a favorable/unfavorable environment, or timing, for performing an IPO. I'd be willing to bet money on it. There's probably been an equal number of IPOs that were launched in a "favorable" time, that flopped on their face a month/year later, than IPOs launched during "unfavorable" times, that did fantastic in the following months/years......You could probably put a team of "predictors" to work, on figuring out the perfect timing for an IPO, and guess what? The pass/fail results, a month/year later, are probably 50/50......So I still think they should've done it long long ago, and if necessary, just blindfold themselves, and push the button. There is absolutely no guarantee of success, in any/every IPO, for all time. Market/World/Investor/Consumer "sentiment", can change in the blink of an eye, and will continue to do so, forever.......JMO.
