IPO's


The performance of some recent tech IPO’s is illustrated in the table below.  Zynga is in better shape than we thought; LinkedIn a little less so.  Poor Pandora (which we love) apparently increased users substantially but hasn’t yet found an effective way to monetize and is being hammered today.
