“#IPOs head for banner year on stock market\u2019s strength<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Companies that cater to the \u201cnew normal\u201d of working and shopping from home are rushing to go public.<\/p>\n

2020 could turn out to be the best year for the IPO market in two decades. Newly public companies have piggybacked on the broader stock market, which made a soaring recovery in spring and summer after COVID-19 and the ensuing lockdowns derailed the longest bull run in history.<\/p>\n

As investors shifted their focus to equities, private companies searching for funding took notice.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of companies sitting on the sidelines waiting to go public really used this as an opportunity,\u201d said Lindsey Bell, chief investment strategist at Ally Invest.<\/p>\n

Through August, 143 companies went public and brought in more than $50.4 billion in proceeds, the most since 2014. Ally Invest projects up to 206 companies could go public by the end of the year, with proceeds from IPOs hitting $72 billion.<\/p>\n

Technology<\/a> companies have been well represented in the IPO market this year, especially companies that are positioned to take advantage of the shift to working and shopping from home. Snowflake, a cloud-based data company, saw its stock value double from its initial price, making it worth more than $70 billion in its debut. The company is backed by Salesforce and Berkshire Hathaway.<\/p>\n

Software company Sumo Logic gained 22 percent in its debut. Internet-based insurer Lemonade also saw its stock value double in its debut in July.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fundamentals really are there for these types of companies to do well and to do well without significant economic growth,\u201d Bell said.<\/p>\n

Still, it\u2019s difficult to determine which IPOs will be booms or busts, Bell said. Investors have to really think about the risks and be prepared for a long-term relationship with the company, rather than trade on its ups and downs.<\/p>\n

About half of US-based stocks that went public from 2015 to 2019 were trading below their IPO prices a year later, Bell said. Those stocks include well-known companies like Uber, Fitbit and Blue Apron.<\/p>\n

The IPO market will likely remain strong, Bell said, \u201cas long as the market behaves.\u201d The broader market has pulled back in September as the economic recovery slows down.<\/p>\n

Investors are facing a wide range of uncertainties, including the lingering virus pandemic and political squabbling about additional financial aid, as well as the upcoming presidential election.<\/p>\n

\u201cReality is sinking in for a lot of investors,\u201d Bell said. \u201cWe\u2019ve come so far so fast.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
