What is IPO?

Initial public offering (IPO): refers to the first time that an enterprise or company (joint stock limited company) sells its shares to the public (IPO refers to the way that a joint stock company issues shares to the public for the first time).

Usually, the shares of listed companies are sold through brokers or market makers according to the terms agreed in the prospectus or registration statement issued by the corresponding stock exchange. Generally speaking, once the initial public listing is completed, the company can apply for listing on the stock exchange or quotation system. A limited liability company shall be changed into a joint stock limited company before applying for initial public offering.

IPO breaking means that the stock falls below the issue price on the day of listing. Public offering: offering shares to the public. Listing is just a general term, and the scientific name is public offering (of course, there is a tour in the middle, that is, some big fund companies buy stocks, and the rest will be sold in the open market for retail investors or institutions to buy).

IPO is an initial public offering. What is distribution? It is to issue additional shares, that is, to let new and more investors put their money into the company, and at the same time give these investors some new shares so that they can participate in the dividends of the company in the future. ?

IPO and listing are often closely linked. In particular, China's securities law stipulates that it must be publicly issued before listing, and enterprises without public offering cannot be listed, so the two are almost tied together. But legally speaking, this is still two links, first public offering, and then listing. IPO break refers to the stock price of listed transactions, which is lower than the stock price invested by investors at the time of issuance, and falls below the issue price and becomes a break.
