Do your homework
Thoroughly read the prospectus to understand the company's financials, market position, and how it plans to use the raised capital.
Wait for stability
Consider waiting until after the mandatory lock-in period has ended. This allows some time for the initial hype to die down and for the stock to stabilise
Valuation after Listing
Compare the stock’s valuation with peers, whether it is still reasonably priced? Or was the listing overpriced? If valuation becomes too high after listing, consider partial profit booking.
Follow long-term strategy
If you are a "buy and hold" investor, you can ignore short-term fluctuations. However, this only works if your initial choice is solid. You should take a long-term perspective grounded in the company's fundamentals, not just market sentiment.
Anchor Investor Lock-In Expiry
Large investors may sell after lock-in expiry, causing volatility. If unsure, wait and assess price trend post-lock-in.
Consult a professional
It is always a good idea to consult a financial advisor to determine what is best for your specific circumstances and risk tolerance.
