Abstract:Underwriters using bookbuilding can allocate shares of initial public offerings (IPOs) based on, e.g. commissions paid by investors. In testing the hypothesis that investors trade liquid stocks (here as: liq-sts.) to affect their IPO allocations, it is found that money left on the table by IPOs is related to the trading volume of the 50 most liq-sts. near the offer date. For an IPO leaving USD 1 billion on the table, there is abnormal volume from 2.7 to 4.1 percent in the 50 most liq-sts. over the 6 days ending on the day that trading commences in that IPO etc.
