For example, buy into a stock when it IPOs, then cash out when it trades higher. But today Iâll show you a different way to profit from an IPO. This is a way to make money â a lot of money â even when an IPO tanks. And just to be clear, this has nothing to do with shorting stocks or trading options. Want to learn how to use this strategy yourself? Read on⦠> ADVERTISEMENT < RIP Bitcoin. Hello $$$. The Fed might have just murdered Bitcoin - and the entire $1.3 trillion crypto market - with a single move. Whatâs more, this same move puts $73 trillion up for grabs. And it could create a bigger boom than the tech boom of the 1990s in one specific industry. One expert put all the details into a presentation, including a stock he believes could experience gains as high as 9,000% now that this âBitcoin Killerâ is live. [Click here for all the details](. Septemberâs âHottestâ IPO? Last month, one of the hottest tech companies on the planet finally went public⦠Grocery-delivery startup, Instacart. Instacart brought in $2.5 billion revenue in 2022, a 38% increase from the year prior. About 70% of those revenues came from its low-margin delivery business. But 30% of them â $740 million â came from higher-margin online advertising. That helps explain why the company earned a $428 million profit, compared with a $73 million loss the year before. Given its competitive positioning, its scale, and its financials, it was expected to become one of the hottest IPOs of the year. Indeed, after opening at $30, it quickly spiked to more than $42, which is where most âordinaryâ investors like you were finally able to buy shares. But the stock market can be tricky. Instacartâs momentum soon faded and its shares started to fall. As Iâm writing this today, shares are trading for just $26 or $27. In other words, if youâd invested in Instacart on IPO day, you could have lost about 35% of your money. However, for a different group of investors, Instacartâs price drop wasnât a problem at all⦠In fact, while investors from IPO day were sitting on a 35% loss, these other investors were sitting on a profit of more than 100x their money. Let me explain⦠The Secret to Making Money When Stocks Drop The investors who made 100x their money on Instacart didnât do anything âfancyâ⦠They didnât short Instacart stock, and they didnât make any complex options trades. Instead, they did something simple: They invested in Instacart before it IPO'd â in fact, they invested several years before it went public. And by doing so, they were able to secure their shares at a far lower price. You see, startup investors including Sequoia Capital, Canaan Partners, and Y Combinator all invested when Instacart was valued at just $75 million. And thatâs why, even after Instacartâs stock plummeted, these pre-IPO investors were still sitting on a profit of more than 105x their money. Thatâs a 10,500% gain, enough to turn $10k into more than $1 million. The thing is, this isnât an isolated example⦠This phenomenon happens more often than you might think. Pre-IPO Profits Strike Again For instance, look at New Relic (NEWR). Soon after its IPO, New Relicâs shares dropped by more than 20%. But once again, pre-IPO investors didnât suffer any losses⦠Instead, they made serious profits: While IPO investors in NEWR lost 20 cents for every dollar they invested, New Relicâs pre-IPO investors earned gains of 528%, turning every dollar they invested into more than $5. The Early Bird Gets the Returns And thatâs the key to startup investing: Getting in early. Thatâs why, at Crowdability, we focus on showing you early-stage deals.
