Snap Tumbles Below IPO Opening Price as Analysts Say Sell
While I don't believe that $SNAP financials are solid (I am bearish), I do applaud them and Mulesoft for going public.<p>Too often today large (well past series C) tech companies (I won't name any names) refuse to go public and instead continue to take private equity and foreign investment and prop themselves up on absurd valuations with no-checks and balances. Some of these companies are absolute dog shit, yet they continue to receive unlimited funding and insane valuations in a vacuum with no market to short them.
Wall Street calls bullshit when they see it, and smart people short bad companies when they find them. Silicon Valley doesn't provide a way to short these propped-up companies, they just continue to self-promote themselves on private equity and foreign investment.
