Didi Global’s Lower Valuation Is Still a Bad Ride for Investors

Despite the big drop in the valuation, we still do not think investors should expect to make any money in this IPO.

Marqeta’s IPO Is Priced Beyond Perfection

We see no reason for investors to buy this IPO. Wait for the price to drop to below $9/share or allocate to stocks with much better risk/reward.

Figs Stands Out Amidst a Sea of Overvalued IPOs

Squarespace Valuation Is Out of This World

This direct listing looks like a bad to deal to us, and we would not be buyers of this stock at anywhere close to the expected valuation.

Another Overvalued IPO: Endeavor Group

Endeavor will test investors’ appetite for overvalued IPOs as Endeavor needs this IPO more than investors do.

Despite Record 1Q Results, Coinbase’s Valuation Remains Ridiculous

The company has little-to-no-chance of meeting the future profit expectations that are baked into its ridiculously high expected valuation of $100 billion.

Compass’ IPO Valuation Is Off the Map

Compass fails to generate any profits, and with minimal ability to cut costs, it’s hard to make a straight-faced argument that the firm can justify a ~$10 billion valuation.

DoorDash’s New Valuation Is Even More Ridiculous

Making an overpriced IPO more expensive only creates more downside risk for investors.

Investors Can Rest Well with Airbnb’s IPO

If Airbnb can continue to execute as it has to date, we think the firm could achieve the future cash flow expectations implied by a $28 billion valuation.

DoorDash: The Most Ridiculous IPO of 2020

At a valuation of $25.4 billion, DoorDash earns our Unattractive rating and would be the most ridiculous IPO of 2020.
