Visa IPO?

So, I have my market setup all ready to accept 54 shares of the Visa initial public offering... Anyone else jumping on this? It will be made public in about 17 minutes.

54 shares @ $44 a piece?

that's a lot of cigars you'll be missin out on, but i'd buy some too if i had the money.

they're expecting a 20% increase per share from what i've been hearing.

So, how did the IPO go? I can remember trying to participate in these back in the 1990s when the IPO market was hot. E*Trade would usually get an allocation of shares on opening day. With the big boys playing the market, my small purchase requests never landed, so I eventually gave up on the whole IPO thing.

Did you get your shares?

They haven't opened yet.. Visa is apparently worried they don't have enough shares I don't know if mine will go through. With so little shares, who knows what'll happen.

Order filled. we ended up at 37 shares 59.50/share. I've still got about $300 to play with.. thinking about doing more.
